bubinga5 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 (edited) Meshell is doing some dates around the UK, Stopping off at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival. Playing on the same stage as Clint Eastwood's son a few years back.. Magical music. and she always gets the bass out, as that is what is her.

Cuzzie Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I can't find the dates except the European ones. Any links? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubinga5 Posted January 11, 2017 Author Share Posted January 11, 2017 seems like she might be just doing cheltenham which seems odd. http://www.cheltenhamfestivals.com/jazz/whats-on/2017/meshell-ndegeocello/?gclid=CN-UmIy9utECFYM4Gwod_AUGdg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 How does the Cheltenham Jazz Festival work? Do you just buy tickets for every act you want to see, or is there some sort of multiple gig ticket available? If I was going to go I reckon I'd need to book into a hotel, so I'd like to see as many acts as possible, but not at £20 per act. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] No, I think you got that wrong. Go and see as many as possible;They pay [i]you[/i] £20.00 per act. (It's Jazz, they need the audience). I would like to see her, but Cheltenham is a bit far for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winny Pooh Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I've just started listening to her and am digging Peace beyond Passion. Why no more dates?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is some free stuff in the Montpellier gardens, and lots of food stands etc. but didn't offer any proper ales iirc. I mean, ffs, it's a jazz festival, isn't their target audience real ale drinking beard stroking old blokes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any of the assorted West Coast Get Down collective are invited then I'll almost certainly be getting some tickets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuzzie Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I'm thinking about this, but again will she how the full line ups go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cato Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Just noticed Snarky Puppy are playing later in the evening on the same day as Meshell. Only seem to be balcony seats left though. Still, that weekend in Cheltenham is growing more and more attractive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
