Briefly: The Jammys Lineup Additions
We’ve got less than one week until the 7th Jammy Awards goes down at the Theater at MSG on May 7. The latest round of artist additions includes: Keller Williams, comedian Chevy Chase, MCs Chali 2na (Jurassic 5) and Doug E. Fresh, guitar-icon Leslie West (Mountain), Neo-bop jazz trumpet Nicholas Payton and drum legend Roy Haynes. Chase, who often played piano on his extremely short-lived talk show, will perform with Keller Williams.
Voting for The Jammys closes tomorrow, so be sure to fill out your ballot before you miss your chance. Tickets for Wednesday’s show are still available.

Oops…in deference to McL, they should totally do You Can Call Me Al INTO Holiday Road!

They should totally play that song “Holiday Road” from summer vacation – somebody please pass on the suggestion to one of them!

McL good call. I’m sure Keller can do the trumpet parts too.

Chevy Chase was seen rocking out to Umphrey’s at the DC Green Apple show

Chevy Chase is still alive?

You Can Call Me Al is a perfect number for Keller and Chevy. I think that would be quite enjoyable. I’m sure Keller’s already practicing the little bass breakdown.

I am slightly frightened by the prospect of Chevy & Keller – that has disaster written all over it. Unless of course this turns out to be Keller looping music from Fletch while Chase quotes lines from it….on second thought that would still suck.
