just jazz

Went to a jazz bar last fri to chill w my fav chillg buddies.. can say tt it wasnt wat i thought it will be like. I like live bands (provided they dun scream into e mike) but i discover tt i dun enjoy live bands tt jams more than they sing.

It takes lots of concentration to "understand" what they are playing.. but at the end of e whole thing, i still was not able to "feel" their music. But at least i can say tt i quite like the jazzy voice of the vocalist except when he speaks as he tried to slur all his words together. Dun understand lar.

Tt nite, i asked myself, 'what is jazz?'

Et told me its a band of 4 instruments complementing each other.

I feel that at times its a competition of 4 ppl trying to outdo/outplay each other or trying for the 'loudest' award in their team.

Otherwise, it felt like 4 instruments flirting w each other and seeing who can have the last say tt nite.

What say you?

P.s: anyone heard of anywhere singing L-O-V-E live in a jazzy way..
