The times for the Mary Jemison Riverboat rides are all late by 30 minutes. Since this venue is the only one that actually MOVES once the show starts, that's a pretty big problem. We showed up to catch the "2:30" departure on June 12, and... no boat.
I haven't caught any other errors in The City's schedule, but folks might be better off using the official RIJF schedule instead: www.rochesterjazz.com/artist_lineup/

Damon: Thanks for your note. The 2:30 & 4:30 p.m. times came directly from the Jazz Fest -- I have the e-mail that lists them clearly. There seems to be some confusion over that venue specifically, as the Jazz Fest site itself only lists the Stompers at playing at 2 p.m. both days, not at 4 p.m. However, I have verified that information with the festival, and have updated our schedule to reflect it. I am very confident that our schedule is accurate, at least based on the current information provided by the Jazz Fest.
