VAN MORRISON - LIVE - THE PERFORMANCES

2007-07-03

Montreal Jazz Festival Salle Wilfred; Menard said the jazz festival organizers tried to bring the mercurial Morrison back year after year. "We talked to his agent in November (last year) and put in an offer," Menard said. "They said, 'No. It won't be happening.' They called back in March and said, 'He might do it. Can you make the money a bit better?' We offered the money quoted and then they said, 'No. It's not happening.' " The deal came out of left field after the indoor concerts were announced and the pamphlet printed up. "They said 'It's OK, the offer that you made. Van played New Orleans and he feels like he has to play jazz festivals. He wants to play Montreal,' " Menard said. Luckily, July 3 was one of the three free Big Event nights, featuring Seun Kuti, which left most indoor venues unused. Morrison was booked, once again, into Salle Wilfrid Pelletier. "It was a bit laborious, but I don't mind. He's here," Menard said. But even if Morrison hadn't been available that night, Menard said he would have found a way to fit him in somewhere. "I would have booked him on Monday morning if I had to," he said, laughing. "We really wanted him." Menard offered no speculation on what kind of show Morrison would do this time around. "Coming to the jazz festival, he might feel like he has to do the jazzier stuff," he said. "We really don't know what he's going to do. I would not predict anything on Van Morrison's choices."
