  1. Supposedly Rob Reiner is working on a sequel. I hope they don't screw it up. It's a VERY high bar, though.
  2. Tuesday night at Bird & Beckett Books with the Tim Berne Trio. Gregg Belisle-Chi was amazing. Never seen him before.
  3. Going to see a new Irving Penn Retrospective at the deYoung Museum here in SF next Friday. Should be amazing!
  4. Agreed. Good one. She played quite a bit of it when I saw her last week.
  5. I put a preliminary schedule together. LOTS of conflicts, but it's a work in progress. I listed all the Threadgill shows even though I won't get to all of them. THURSDAY Blacktronika: Afrofuturism in Electronic Music Workshop Tord Gustavsen Trio Henry Threadgill’s Very Very Circus Amythyst Kiah Nick Bartsch's Ronin Secret Chiefs 3 R.B.

  6. Love the Mingus BB! I've seen them quite a few times - most recently in December at their latest NY Venue, DROM in the East Village.
  7. Same here, but the Friday show had no major conflicts for me.
  8. I broke down and got a ticket for the Andre 3000 show on Friday
  9. Can't say I've ever seen anything quite like it myself. Seeing Berne in a couple weeks in a very unorthodox "venue". It's a small bookstore in an outer SF neighborhood. They regularly have music and book readings, but music-wise it tends to be local musicians. Looking forward to it! They did have Kahil El’Zabar earlier this week, though. Which was also unusual. Tim Berne Trio w/Tom Rainey, drums and Gregg Belisle-Chi, guitar
  10. I've been listening to the 2 songs released from that album. Sounds great!
  11. Yes - a very talented singer, songwriter and musician in her own right. I never realized until last night that her instrument of choice is what she called an "Austin Mandolin" - it looks like a guitar, but has 8 strings. Maybe that's its real name? You would know, Lon.
  12. Saw Sarah Jarosz and her band last night. Outstanding! I'm not usually a singer/songwriter fan, but she's a little different and is somewhat uncategorizable as far as genre. Covers a lot of ground. Great band, too!

    Kip Hanrahan

    Had this for a LONG time, but never listened to it much. Threw it on the other day and realized that it's basically a Kip Hanrahan album - he produced it. Lots of Hanrahan-ish touches all the way through. Good stuff!
  14. I say that every day! 😁🎷

    Kip Hanrahan

    Agreed. Great album!
  16. Just skimmed through it once, so far. Definitely want to see as many Threadgills as possible. Tomeka, for sure. Lots of conflicts on Thursday, but Fri-Sun seemed a little more manageable. Looks to be a very satisfying year at BE.
