As usual, I'm toying with the idea.

The complete Sunday lineup looks great (though I can't make it):
13:00 - Joe Morris/Simon H. Fell/Alex Ward
15:00 - Nick Didkovsky - Ice Cream Time
17:00 - Gunda Gottschalk/Xu Fengxia
20:00 - Joe McPhee/Raymond Boni/Daunik Lazro/Cluade Tchamitchian
22:00 - Roscoe Mitchell Note Factory
00:15 - Michel Cote

If this were on Saturday, I might make a serious attempt. I'd love to see Simon H. Fell. Never seen him or Alex Ward perform live.

Other dates for Morris/Fell/Ward:
May 14 - NYC, Issue Project Room
May 15 - Baltimore
May 16 - Boston
May 18 - the Victo date

I was hoping that there might be a Toronto date, as organizations in Toronto had scheduled some Victo artists in the past, but apparently a Toronto date was not allowable.

Michel Coté, he was from UZEB. Excellent IMO.
