Upcomming Montreal Jazz Fest.

Thanks for responses.
i'm getting there by plain. I'll be more likely getting around with public transportation. audiphile thing will probably be the very last thing to do as I only plan to be 4 days mostly attending live concerts.

Thanks Donjr,
I haven't made any accommodations as of yet. I'm in my mid-40's and still run 5...6km daily outdoors so walking 20m is a joy. Riding bikes is also great and I'll definitely get on to it.
Possibly picking up an adventurous music female student to accompany my trip:-) I'd possibly know of some friend who would throw me an empty apartment key on my arrival and the apartment is in the heart of downtown. Otherwise I'd look for descent hotel *** or better. There's still plenty of time to get accommodations straightened out. My objective is to see Chucho Valdes, Bireli Lagrene and Bill Frisel. The only audiophile thing I would look forward to do is to take a look at vinyl records if I find any of my taste price and condition. Obviously no equipment shopping as I'm all set in this case with my recent purchase of Mytek DSD DAC-preamp/headphone/Beyerdynamic t70.
