Zoom jazz gig - NOT amateur radio

As reported a few days ago, my son is a professional jazz pianist. He plays at all the very best venues in London and around the UK and has appeared on the BBC and other radio stations and has done tours overseas.

Currently, with venues closed, he is unable to play live gigs. Last night he did a Zoom performance with people buying tickets. It was a great success.

Online jazz gig - NOT amateur radio

My son is a professional jazz pianist. He has been on the BBC and other radio stations and usually plays at the very best jazz venues in London and around the country. He has had gigs abroad several times. He is very good.

As these venues are closed, he gets no income. Instead he is trying to sell tickets for an online gig this Wednesday. Even if you cannot listen, please consider buying a ticket.
