Yesterday was the 1st annual Jaco Pastorius Birthday Dinner, in Stockwell. Jaco would have been 53, if he were still alive. And he wouldn't have come, even if we'd have invited him. Thanks to Ben and Emma for hosting, and to everyone who came (Ben and Emma, and me, though it would be unseemly to thank myself). I will be looking for hosts for next year's dinner in late November, though volunteers are welcomed beforehand. I'll also be making sure I have some of Jaco's music available, including The Birthday Concert, and some of his solo stuff. I may even have learnt to play some of it by then.
I have a sore head, so I'm going to try to concentrate on work.
