According to last years numbers, over 20, 000 strong will be here this week-end to line up to run the Bix 7 race, gather in the streets for day and night long festivities,which include food, art and every sort of booth imaginable, and of course, meet in various locations for on-going jazz fests. The band shell on the Davenport levee is a favorite site, but for those who prefer a cooler venue, there are any number of up-scale places, such as the Raddison that will be playing host to those who want to get in on the Jammin' going on! For those who love to be a part of the Bix Beiderbecke Jazz experience, there is plenty of opportunity to find bands dropping on at local night clubs, who will be wailin' far into the night, for anyone who wants to come out and listen. Many of those places are in Davenport as well, but just across the river in Rock Island, in " The District",with it's myriad nite spots, who knows how many impromptu Jam sessions will pop up?
Yeah, it's going to be a hot week-end, both with the heat,and with all that is going on in the QCA!
OUI?
