Drink, Drugs and Sex

It's said that at any music festival there will always be plenty of drink, drugs and sex. Well, with Keswick Jazz Festival being mainly a Trad and New Orleans type of festival, the average age of the audience is such that the drink is most likely to be tea, the drugs are for arthritis, back ache and angina, and the sex is, well, just a memory. I'm no spring chicken myself, but the average age of attendees is much older than me! I'm not fond of most of the music here but if you study the programme carefully you can find some good Mainstream jazz, and Karen Sharp and Robert Fowler shown here are amongst the best.
