Mill Hill Music Festival - Day 5 - The Geoff Mason Quintet at the Mill Hill Jazz Club

So tonight we were down at the Mill Hill Sports club for the Mill Hill Jazz club night. Yet again we had over 100 people turn up. Yet again we had a brilliant night. The boys were on top form and gave the audience a fair treat. The Mill Hill Jazz club runs every Wednesday at Mill Hill Sport club. It is the longest running regular music gig in Mill Hill and helped launch the career of Imelda May !

Long may it continue - more details at http://millhilljazzclub.co.uk/

A homage to the Mill Hill Jazz Club

I've mentioned my upstart competetor, The Mill Hill Broadway Blog here before. The blog is doing a stirling job promoting businesses and other things of interest in Mill Hill. One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet is the Mill Hill Jazz Club. The jazz club is the creation of my old mate Paul Amsterdam. The Jazz club recentl;y celebrated its 10th birthday.

Anyway, they've got a great band on next Wednesday. It's The Chess Players featuring Adrian Paton on piano from Big Chief fame and a host of other top class players, namely: John (Chick) Webb on drums, Dick Pearce on trumpet, Bob Sydor on tenor and Jim Richardson on bass.

Now as you know I'm a football nut, but if you want to escape the fun of the world cup, what better way. People often say "Nothing ever happens in Mill Hill". Well the jazz club has been happening for over ten years now and has brought some of the UK's finest musicians to NW7.
