Greetings!
I wanted to give you a few quick updates about my activities:
- For those of you in the New York City area, The D.D. Jackson Trio (
myself - pianist/composer);
Dafnis Prieto - drums and
Ugonna Okegwo - bass will be appearing for one night only in New York City at the
Jazz Gallery on Tues. Nov. 1rst at 9 and 10:30 pm. We will be playing material from a new
Justin Time CD I will be recording shortly in conjunction with my upcoming
Artistshare website. The Jazz Gallery is at: 290 Hudson Street (between Spring and Dominick Streets) in lower Manhattan. Tel. for reservations: 212-242-1063. More info:

- Also, my latest "D.D. Jackson's Living Jazz Podcast" is up for those interested at:
http://ddjackson.com/frame_sounds4.htm
These Podcasts are freely available for anyone with a computer (no actual Ipod required!) and are an extension of the column I write for Down Beat magazine, in which I explore my life as a jazz musician.
The latest (Podcast #10) includes a discussion about virtual instruments including an interview with Gary Garritan and Tom Hopkins, the creators of
Garritan Personal Orchestra .
You can also subscribe to my Podcast via the free software program
ITunes (Mac or PC), so that this and any future podcasts can be automatically downloaded. To do so, make sure you've installed the latest version (6.0) from
http://www.itunes.com (it will also work if you have at least version 4.9 or above); then from within ITunes click on "Podcasts" towards the left; click on the "Advanced" menu along the top and choose "Subscribe to Podcast"; and paste the following text exactly as it appears:

and click "Ok".

Thanks and enjoy!
