Intermezzo: Simon & Garfunkel @ Jazz Fest
When the lineup for this year’s New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival came out a few weeks back there was a big TBA spot among the listings for the first weekend. Rumored acts supposedly filling that spot ranged from The Who to Phish to Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck, but last night we found out that Simon and Garfunkel have been added to the Jazz Fest lineup.
This will be Paul and Art’s only U.S. performance in 2010.
Let’s take a quick look at six other stories of interest…
