do i like jazz?
of course! how could I not enjoy playing songs written 80-100 years ago in the style of musicians who died 60-70 years ago? some musicians play music in packed venues but I personally enjoy the aesthetic of having more musicians on stage getting paid 20 dollars to play a 2 hour gig is extremely rewarding and makes all the hours spent learning an instrument completely worth it some of my greatest personal growth has been from going to jam sessions where 6 college saxophonists treat the band like its an aebersold on every tune and vibe their peers sometimes people ask me if jazz is great music. all i can say is that 2% of all north american listeners cant be lying! plus since we spend the entire gig soloing we dont even need to rehearse! who needs original content when we can come up with new content on the spot? yeah man jazz is pretty great
