Some visual memories of Java Jazz<\/p>\n
The three-day, first-ever Java Jazz Festival wrapped up last
\nweekend, leaving a sweet aftertaste for performers, audience and
\norganizers alike. The festival, which boasted more than 600
\nperformers on 11 stages and about 30,000 visitors flocking
\nJakarta Convention Center, brought big names like James Brown,
\nEarth Wind and Fire and Incognito to an enthusiastic Jakarta
\npublic. -- Evi Mariani<\/p>\n
