What is jazz about? do you enjoy Jazz?

Well you dont, you dont enjoy jazz, you appreciate jazz mostly, yes sometimes it can be enjoyable when you listen to bill Evans or Dave Brubeck classically trained musicians or some remarkable and rare posts like "Kind of blue".
but jazz is mostly about appreciating good playing performance in a solo,

jazz is mostly for musicians because its really not about pleasure or even about about music as like classical music is about music, its about you, its about extending your limits of playing, expressing your nature through playing in a solo, sometimes it is even egoistic and a sort of competition between players who will out play who..in just a few chords of a particular piece that is bebop.
yes Jazz can sometimes be pleasurable for instance if maybe a sax plays slowly and gives you some mood or atmosphere by playing some random or not random long notes and it can be not bad sometimes really for that particular moment but i wonder who remembers it after its done besides remembering the person who played and remember oh yes hes a good player but what did he play? oh gosh i dont know..Jazz has one huge problem, its does not like silence!.
