7/4

That's nice, but I still don't want to see it.

Have a good 'un.

Oh no...a pissed off lawyer! Is there any other kind?

Too soon, if at all for me. I live a bit too close to the Trade Towers to be very excited about this one. I know U93 didn't smack in to the TT on 9/11, but I'm pretty sure the 2nd plane that did...took off from Newark and made it's u-turn somewhere around here. Possibly right over my apt, I live only 10 miles south of the airport. I've seen my building taking off and landing at Newark.

Don't know the story, but damn, man - are you okay? This sounds like a call for help if I've ever heard one.

Oh no...a pissed off lawyer!

Invite the Spirit looks like a good one. It's been a while since I've heard Frith play.

from the Downtown Music Gallery newsletter: MAY, 2006 AT THE STONE IS A MEMORIAL TO DEREK BAILEY Derek Bailey loved New York City. He loved playing here and he loved being here. It was his hope to come back to New York to both curate and play at The Stone for the month of May. Alas, it was not to be. Drawing largely from his original list, Karen Brookman has helped realize his vision. Many of the players are traveling great distances to participate in this month long tribute to one of the greatest musicians of the twentieth century-a man who helped change the world through improvisation. We all miss him. - from The Stone's website Here's the entire May, 2006 schedule at The Stone: 5/2 Tuesday - 8 pm - Christian Marclay (turntables) & John Zorn (alto sax) 10 pm - Erik Friedlander (cello) & Ikue Mori (electronics) 5/3 Wednesday 8 pm - Alan Licht (guitar) 10 pm - Tim Barnes (percussion) 5/4 Thursday - 8 and 10 pm Richard Teitelbaum (electronics) & George Lewis (trombone, electronics) 5/5 Friday 8 pm - William Parker (bass) 10 pm - Shaking Ray Levi Society Dennis Palmer (voice, synthesizer) & Bob Stagner (drums) 5/6 Saturday 8 pm - Cyro Baptista (percussion) & Billy Martin (percussion) 10 pm - Cyro Baptista (perc) & Billy Martin (perc) and special guests 5/7 Sunday 8 and 10 pm - John Zorn Improv Party to Support The Stone John Zorn (alto sax) Shanir Blumenkranz (bass) Cyro Baptista (percussion) Ikue Mori (electronics) Anton Fier (drums) Tim Barnes (percussion) Erik Friedlander (cello) and special guests - A Stone benefit-TWENTY DOLLARS 5/9 Tuesday 8 pm - Julian Kytasty (bandura) 10 pm - Jennifer Choi (violin) Shelley Burgon (harp) 5/10 Wednesday 8 pm - Thurston Moore - Solo (guitar) 10 pm - Thurston Moore (guitar) and special guests 5/11 Thursday 8 pm - Lisle Ellis's Audible Means Pamela Z (voice) Rudresh Mahanthappa (saxophone) Kathy Supove (piano) Guillermo E Brown (drums, electronics) Lisle Ellis (bass and circuitry) 10 pm - J.D.Parran (flute, clarinet, percussion) Mary Halvorson (guitar) Stephen Haynes (trumpet) 5/12 Friday 8 pm - George Lewis (electronics, trombone) 10 pm - Joe Morris (guitar) Michael Evans (percussion, electronics) Daniel Levin (cello) Daniel Blacksberg (trombone) Michael Winograd (clarinet, alto sax) Joe Moffett (trumpet) Jeff Kimmel (bass clarinet) Dana Jessen (bassoon) Adam Dotson (euphonium) 5/13 Saturday 8 pm - Wadada Leo Smith Solo Trumpet 10 pm - Wadada Leo Smith (trumpet) and special guests 5/14 Sunday 8 pm - Eugene Chadbourne (guitar) & John Zorn (alto sax) 10 pm - Eugene Chadbourne (guitar) 5/16 Tuesday 8 pm - Jim O'Rourke - Solo Guitar 10 pm - Marc Ribot Solo Guitar 5/17 Wednesday 8 pm - Carla Kihlstedt (violin) Zeena Parkins (harp) 10 pm - Zeena Parkins (harp) 5/18 Thursday 8 pm - Susie Ibarra (drums), Min Xiao-Fen (pipa) & Okkyung Lee (cello) 10 pm - Ikue Mori (electronics) 5/19 Friday 8 pm - Robert Musso (guitar), Shanir Blumenkranz (bass), Jackson Krall (drums) & Billy Atwell (percussion); Machine Gun guitar ace, Bob Musso, rarely plays live nowadays, so don't miss this rare opportunity to hear his new QT! 10 pm - Remembrances of Derek Karen Brookman and friends: Stories, music and remembrances about Derek by his friends and colleagues.

I went to see Ozzy once and Bolton was opening for him. No kiddin'. But we didn't bother with opening acts back then.

I posted this two years ago, I was all jazzed about it and then never followed up. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...wtopic=8406&hl=

Dehumanizer is a kick ass album. Gotta pull that one out and spin it.
