God bless Fesss! Last nite at a nice little concert here in Chi-town Allen Toussaint played some wonderful tributes to him, and also shared some Fesstories, it was lovely.

I do believe he should be named as Patron Saint of jazzfest.

I do believe he should be named as Patron Saint of jazzfest.
No matter what they officially call it, I will always think of the main stage at Fest as the "Fess Stage".
