RIJF engages in some “ballot stuffing” . . .

Received a newsletter email from the folks at the Rochester International Jazz Festival to let RIJF Fans know about an opportunity to vote for the Rochester International Jazz Festival in a festival smackdown. The announcement says that the RIJF was one of ten nationwide festivals nominated for Best Jazz Festival at music festival site MelodyTrip’s  First Annual Festies, The US Music Festival Awards. The Rochester International Jazz Festival was one of only ten festivals nominated in this category. Cast your vote by March 14 at the MelodyTrip site, clicking on Awards Voting.  Winners will be announced March 15.
