"....and whiskers on kittens...."

Oh damn, that's awful! He was still a fairly young man. I sure have enjoyed his playing over the years, going back to the work he did w/Woody Shaw. Sad news. Rest in Peace.

You mean the long-box format? No I think he means this one, the square plexiglass box: Yes, it first came out in that plastic monstrosity, then later was issued in the longbox.

Oh, OK. It's really only a pain for the bari player in whatever big band is playing there.

And don't forget the big square space-hogging Herbie Hancock box. They reissued it in a more conventional format.

Oh yeah. I've posted about them before. I get a buncha stuff from them- they have great smoked paprika, ancho chili powder, also a great seasoning blend called "Florida seasoned pepper" (don't know what makes it "Florida"). Love Penzey's.

Pan fry?

The last time I was in the VV (about a year ago), the pillar on the right was still there. I assume it's been there all these years because it was load-bearing, but for some reason I thought I had heard that they somehow got rid of it. Probably just urban legend.

Of course I was referring to the jazz club, not the ladyfriend.

Nice pics Agg! Very attractive ladyfriend. Was that your first time at the VV? The first time I went down those stairs it was really exciting*- lots of great vibes there. Did I hear they got rid of the big pillar that blocked the stage? I hope you had a slice of NY pizza! :rsmile: *(also much like the first time I walked into Wrigley Field)

Hank Jones thread

Will there be pie?

Well that's just cruel! Happy Birthday!

Attention Agg! Report, please!

Look again, GA! It's a red letter day for Conn.

Really interesting stuff, Chris. So I wonder why Hendrix wasn't listed on the Woodstock ad? Do you know if he was he a late addition/confirmation? EDIT: I also liked the mention of "curious food and fruit combinations to experiment with". hehehehehehe

The Pepper Adams is also excellent.

OK.........I succumbed. I've always wanted this set anyway. I think you will find much to enjoy!

H A P D P Y B I R T H D A Y C O N N K ! Have a great day, buddy! :rsmile:

Happy Birthday Paul!
