Yogis Music World gig listings for this weekend and a few of the NYE parties too! I'll probably get more updates on NYE parties as they come in. Too many great gigs to mention them all here (this is getting to be how it is every week!), so read the blog and find the ones you want to be at! Thanks to all the great musicians and club owners who have invited me to their events so they could be listed. We're growing every week! Here's to a prosperous 2013! May Seattle explode with great jazz and world music!
