Ginger Baker's Jazz Confusion
Liverpool Philharmonic Hall
Liverpool
Merseyside
UK
24th February 2013

Following a fire, the Philharmonic Hall was rebuilt in the 1930�s, and appearance-wise it screams of that era. Typically �fluted�, shell-shaped 30�s auditorium, with art-deco murals on the side walls.

All seated, the main stalls area is surrounded by small, six-seater boxes, whilst upstairs there are several tiers of balcony.

Seating capacity around 1,790; around 650 in the stalls, the remainder in the balcony (balcony not used/required for this event). Attendance around 400 (at a guess).

No support act.

Band :
Ginger Baker - Drums
Pee Wee Ellis - Tenor Saxophone
Alec Dankworth � Electric and Upright Bass
Abass Dodoo - Percussion

Do what you will with it - except sell it :
You got it for nowt, you give it for nowt

Buy some official releases and get to a gig :
There are a number of upcoming shows and they�re not expensive. Go along and support!
Whilst there are no �Jazz Confusion� releases there are any number of Ginger Baker/related CDs and DVDs available. They cover a lot of ground and offer a refreshing break from the mundane. Well worth exploring.
