You have a point there, Reuben. Matt Jorgensen is the originator of the idea from what I understand. They are working at getting the word out about a variety of music though and hopefully will help keep the scene vital here.

Seriously , as Bill said, Matt and John Bishop do a whole lot to keep the jazz scene happening in Seattle.
Every fall ( now moved to spring ) they organize a weekend Ballard jazz walk ( Ballard being one of the older Scandinavian fishing neighborhoods in near NW Seattle.

You must know my friend, Mike Bisio, who is now back in his hometown, Troy, NY.
Yes, indeed, I heard him play a few times out here before he moved back east. By the way, I've been in the Seattle area only since 2001. Before that I lived in Vermont and upstate (way upstate!) New York.
