  1. Yes, that's correct. Messthetics are bass/drums from Fugazi plus Anthony Pirog on guitar. It's an interesting combination of progressive loud rock and jazz. Not for everybody, but I like it. Saw them at Big Ears, too. Very high energy.
  2. Chrome didn't log in correctly on my Windows laptop today either. It was there, but none of my links signed in as usual. After I rebooted, everything was fine.
  3. Honestly, I haven't listened to all the disks that much. There are some tracks with a sax player that don't work well. But like any group of live tracks, some are better than others. Let's just say the original album wasn't wrong. But I like the idea of hearing complete shows, as opposed to a 'best of' from multiple shows. The most successful so far is Jimi Hendrix, "Songs For Groovy Children" (The Fillmore East Concerts). A real tour de force!
  4. Saw Laubrock with Myra Melford's Fire and Water super group (also Mary Halvorson, Tomeka Reid and Leslie Mok) at Big Ears. What a great performance!
  5. Saw him last month with the Messthetics. A totally different experience.
  6. Large Irving Penn retrospective at the deYoung Museum in San Francisco. Excellent show if you happen to be in town
  7. It's very sad. He was scheduled to perform on Sunday at a great oceanside venue down the coast (from SF), and I was thinking of going.
  8. I don't often listen to fusion any more but this new album is very good. And the lineup is quality. G. Calvin Weston - Drums Vernon Reid - Guitar Jamaaladeen Tacuma - Bass
  9. That piece was written by Ashely Kahn who participated in some panel discussions and was spotted at a number of shows throughout the weekend.
