I have read none of the books nor seen any of the movies....I don't really care of the dude is gay or not. Also, this is a fictional character....so he's not really gay.............or is he???? m~

I would love to go but just can't squeeze it in. I do have a photograph of McCoy Tyner on the cover of the latest Jazz Improv magazine. m

...photographing Stanley Jordan tonight...then Douglass Ewart/Mwata Bowden at the Velvet on Friday night.

I think I read just yesterday that most of these are fake.

Dave Pell sells cdrs of all his releases....even ones still in print...occasionally with a bonus track or two added....but not always..

Yes, when all is said and done, this is what I will choose to remember about that day and what will ultimately help me heal. Duh....I had no idea you were that Rachel!!! Color me stupid... ....old news here in Indy!

i didnt realize that thing was that big. we need those for baseball! ...yeah, if those things hit you, they'll leave a mark! m~

...out of respect for TD and this great day, I have deleted my prior reply! Have a GREAT day, TD!!!! m~

I wear a tie almost daily to work but don't have to... m

No, that's ridiculous!

...wow, I just thought all this stuff would last forever!

PM sent on Nelson/Pepper! m~

...and I hope he does!!! Think he'll make it down from Northern North America? Hopefully he doesn't bring the bird flu with him!

...and I hope he does!!!

...although I never agree with Dan , I'm in total agreement here!

There is the annual West Coast Jazz event put on by Ken Poston and the LA Jazz Institute this Thursday-Sunday. I'll be there from Friday-Sunday....if anyone from the LA area is attending, send me a PM http://lajazzinstitute.org/images/e.pdf I went to the event last year as well and had a great time. Fun event to attend if you like WCJ and the opportunity to chat with the musicians. Mark~

Yep, nothing like Chris's "opinion" to make Valerie & George feel that much better. Nothing like editorial opinions to help bolster a thread filled with good cheer, good wishes, and yes, prayer. Just because you don't believe in prayer doesn't make it unneccesary, any more than me believing in prayer makes it necessary. Here's a clue, Chris: THIS AIN'T ABOUT YOU. You could've very easily made your point just with the second half of your statement. my sentiments, exactly!! but that's "consistent chris"! always with the negative, like clock-work. Count me in with well wishes for a speedy recovery! He was supposed to play with the Cookers last month in Chicago and was replaced due to illness.

Sonny looks very happy to be with you!

I caught Sonny and his sextet live in Portland Friday night. The old man seemed to be having a good time and I thought he played great. Clifton Anderson on trombone, Bob Cranshaw on bass, Willie Jones on drums, and I didn't catch the names of the guitarist and the congos/percussion guy. They played for nearly two hours, and Sonny appeared full of energy. Particularly nice version of "In a Sentimental Mood." Bobby Broom

...reid anderson.

...dave king!

Here are a few shots from tonights show in Indy.....lots of fun with several tunes played from the new cd "Prog".... m

They are here in Indy tomorrow night....will post some phtos if I get a chance. m~

I saw him 2 years ago and he was good. He got decent reviews for a recent show in London. He doesn't do as much uptempo material as he used to, but he was still great on ballads. If I was in NYC, I would probably go just to see a legend. (He is a lot shorter than I imagined.) I saw him at the same show referenced above.....thought he was good and glad I got to be there. m
