Of course, this being the evening the tube strike starts, getting there and back could be fun. I saw them play on Thursday. I'd say it's worth venturing out if you're a jazz fan or a bass player. Nat

Unfortunately the listing I have only covers March and April so I can't check which one they are at. Now somewhere we have complimentary tickets to the Jazz Club (one perk of membership of their club), maybe this would be a good time to use them. Neil.
