Dear Norman, 
I have been following this saga for a while now, as Dee Dee Bridgewater, Irvin Mayfield & the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra are scheduled to play a one-night only performance at the City Recital Hall here in Sydney, Australia on 6th June 2015 at 8pm.
Apart from the ticket prices of $109, $99 and $79 I will not be there having previously checked out the band's music videos.
The following night, 7th June, they travel the 600 miles down to Melbourne for the (so-called) Melbourne International Jazz Festival.
The NOJO certainly has a busy schedule of International performances:

[The Wellington Jazz Festival listed is in New Zealand, not Australia.] 
Very kind regards,
Bill.
