The Jazz Cafe is rapidly becoming one of my favourite places to catch live music. With a max capacity of 100, this funky bar in the basement of the historic Music Hall is rapidly becoming "THE ROOM" to play in Detroit for such jazz /fusion greats as Holdsworth, Cobham, Stern and Phillips.

I originally had tickets to see Dream Theater on this evening, but resold them as soon as these shows were announced. Very glad I did as Simon and the boys put on a great show. The musicianship was at a very high level, the sound well mixed and the crowd excited, yet attentive.

Also included are a few pics to give a flavor of the evening.
