AllenLowe Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) I will probably have a nervious breakdown trying to get ready for it, but am doing an interesting gig May 3 at Spectrum, 121 Ludlow Street; sort of a kickoff for Field Recordings, but doing a bit of new music - and recording - with the following: Bobby Zankel, alto; Hayes Greenfield, C melody; Randy Sandke, trumpet; Brian Simontacchi, trombone; Kevin Ray, bass; Paul Austerlitz, clarinet; Lou Grassi, drums; Lewis Porter, piano; me on alto. Special guest: Matt Shipp, piano. I have a whole new project that will be done this night (well, some of it); the new music is killing me; can't sleep, but I think I'm almost done. come on out and listen. also, btw, Simontacchi, whom you may not know, is a young and brilliant player; he's at Hartt College, and to my ears is one of the most interesting new musicians around.

Chuck Nessa Posted February 28, 2014 Report Share Posted February 28, 2014 I have never had a "nervious breakdown" but I'm sure you can have one. Break a leg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 My breakdowns are usually quite calm, it's the normalcy where I get nervous, and don't break a leg, even if you do have insurance, that's not a road down which I would think you'd like to go, but yes, do have a great show, and you will be recording, if only for yourself, right?

AllenLowe Posted March 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 thanks; yes we will record; still having trepidations about the new music, but I have learned, when in doubt, just play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
