Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne and Leon Ptashka "fly to Cosmos" as they rehearse their jamming session just before the opening of Koktebel Jazz Festival 2006
September 12. Late evening. After we have run all the tests with Oxford (thanks George, Dima and all the rest) we had Moscow online. Leon Ptashka, a famous Israeli jazz pianist of Russian origin was waiting for Kenny "Blues Boss" Wayne from Canada to join him in an Internet jam. Kenny arrived in his tracksuit and took his place in the backyard accompanied by a numerous spectators including ourselves and Dmitry Kiselev, the founder of the festival. The rehearsal generated a lot of emotions and Ptashka even compared the jam with flying to space: so extraordinary, unknown and - at the same time - exciting it was!
