It was a sunny weekend. We had a date with the Erdre river and jazz. The Conseil General was organizing the annual jazz festival along the Erdre river. Boats were parading on river while we were listening to the musics.
People waiting for boats passing by.
Boats parading, some were so old I thought I was at the Pirate of the Caribbean era.
Some musicians just set up a booth and started playing. They even brought wine to share with the audiences.
A classical jazz band. Where were the audiences?
It was so hot so they were hidden under the shade. :-)
Some musicians played on the boat.
And they have got audiences came by boat and stayed on board while listening.
Some people playing, some people drinking, some people cruising
Overall, it was a nice event, money well spent. The Conseil General used the tax money to sponsors these bands which foster the jazz culture, people came for free musics and songs but they paid for restaurants, hotels and shopping. It boosted the local economy plus made the music lovers happy. Win win situation.
Bee,
