You probably know by now that I went to the 12 annual Cape Town International Jazz festival at the CTICC.
Before 25 March 2011 I simply liked jazz and music, because music is food to ones soul.
That all change.
I was part of a volunteering group that worked with a events company which organised the event.
Night one was quit busy, we were media liason officers and part of the media crew. It was the best experienced to work work local, national and international media. Up until the first performance I was enjoying the moment and felt I was at th right place at the right time.
To my amazement I lost myself for a few minutes when Dave Koz came on stage and took the saxophone. What a talented artist! The crowd went ballistic when the American played our National anthem.
It was then when I realised jazz was now one of my favourite genres.
The night continued with performances by Earth Wind and Fire, Bebe Winance, Huge Masikela and many more.
Saturday night was the show stopper. Right at the end Bebe had a performance with his friends and it was phenomenal.
The whole weekend I had about 5 hours sleep. It was all worth it. I do thank all those who went along. I met some new new friends, networked and interacted with many others from across the globe.
"You never know the best day(weekend) of life...not until it comes." Dare to dream, make bucket lists, you never know if the list might be completed before you know it.
