“Feel the breeze, sway with the music and watch the sun set over Lake Mendota, ahhhh!” The Isthmus Jazz Festival translocates to the UW Madison Memorial Union Terrace and the performers groove and bebop in perfect weather against the iconic Madison backdrop.
Of course you need to be a member in order to purchase a Leines or a Capital, and so in some sense The Isthmus is retreating from the greater community and back into the University. One thirty something adult gentleman arrives wearing the most elaborate multicolored silk screen Che Guevara shirt I have ever seen and it reminds me of the difference between the left and the right.
Che Guevara: "Hatred is an element of struggle; relentless hatred of the enemy that impels us over and beyond the natural limitations of man and transforms us into effective, violent, selective, and cold killing machines. Our soldiers must be thus; a people without hatred cannot vanquish a brutal enemy."The musical groove from Ben and Leo Sidran is more in tune with pleasant summer evenings and when Gerri DiMaggio, Jeannie Woodall, Sara Yervand, Michelle DuVall get together to sing Louis Armstrong's “What A Wonderful World”: it is.
