Favorite Jazz Radio or media station
Used to be WDUQ-FM. NOw I listen to WYZR-FM 88.1 on the Pittsburgh Jazz Channel. Also listen to JAZZRADIO.COM. Still think the City needs an all day jazz station to fill the needs of folks like me!
Favorite Pittsburgh Jazz Venue
James St. GastroPub, Little E's (when it was), The Savoy,
