Jazz At Sunset at the Castle

Has anyone been to this event on Thursdays at Castle in the Clouds? Thinking of checking it out on the 9th.

We went to the Jazz Thursday event at Castle last year, and it was just mediocre. Food was nothing to write home about. The "jazz" wasn't what I perceive to be jazz (Dave Koz, etc.). This was more like music for Granddad. We were disappointed: except the views are spectacular if it's a clear night. Watch out for the bees on the patio... there are alot of them near all the flower beds that surround the stone wall at the side closest to the lake. We won't revisit.

My wife and I also went to the Thursday night Jazz/dinner function. And, as Donnamatrix pointed out, we were not impressed either. The highlight of the evening was the view.

What did you expect from a "NON-PROFIT" Organization?

Agree 100 % , the music was NOT Jazz , more like some dixie land stuff played by 3 old guys , too old for me and I'm 63 . food ok but forgetable and of course the view as the sun goes down , priceless !

Winnocuturn: It's unfortunate that you equate "non profit" with "no quality"... I haven't found that to be the case with the majority of non profit groups.
