For the last 4 or 5 weeks there have been live jazz performances every Friday evening on the steps of Medgar Evers college on Crown and Bedford. I'm guessing it starts around 7 or 8 and goes until 10ish... each week it's a different group and they've all been pretty solid. Does anyone have more details? Maybe the Inkwell folks know what's up.

I don't have any details, but it sounds cool as hell! If I do find out anything, I'll let you know.

Is there anything online about the schedule, line-ups, etc.? I've tried to search but come up with nothing... _________________ "The jawbone of an ass is just as dangerous a weapon today as in Sampson's time."

I'm not aware of any schedule, but I'd imagine there must be one. If I see anything I post it here.
The Jazz club on Rogers may have more info, they are a few blocks away.

If you're interested, there's also some video of various live performances produced by the Central Brooklyn Jazz Consortium available on their website, www.centralbrooklynjazzconsortium.org.
And thanks for the info on Inkwell. We'll be sure to include it on the site. _________________ http://nostrandpark.com
