  1. The downside of the festival experience. You can't see EVERYthing!
  2. THAT looks good, too. He's doing a 4-day residency here, and that trio is on another day. MAR 14–17 | SFJAZZ RESIDENT ARTISTIC DIRECTOR JOE LOVANO
  3. Seeing him on Thursday at SFJAZZ with his Nonet: Steve Slagle alto, Ralph Lalama tenor, Gary Smulyan baritone, Barry Ries trumpet, Larry Farrell trombone, James Weidman piano, Cameron Brown bass, Otis Brown III drums
  4. Same here
  5. Rolling Stone Preview Sun of Goldfinger’s Genre-Blurring New Avant-Garde Opus Hoping to see them at Big Ears!
  6. It's working for me on Windows/Chrome. Maybe they're launching it today.
  7. He's on Facebook. You might try contacting him there.
  8. I kind of missed the Saints for some reason, but definitely need to check them out. Other related Birdman bands: New Race (one-off MC5/Birdman tour and albums), and New Christs.
  9. Thanks! Not a large venue, which helped to get close.
  10. Australia has some great bands, for sure! Love the Hoodoos, Spiders, Church ... and also Radio Birdman.
  11. Saw them at the NYC Winter Jazzfest last month. Nice show!
  12. Nice list! BTW, Chris Cacavas sat in with one of the Dream Syndicate shows I saw last year. Really added a lot to their sound!
  13. You're right about Chicago. For some reason I always thought they were from LA. The Dream Syndicate is doing some shows with them this year, too.
  14. Nice list, Randy. I still haven't dug in, but will probably have several of those on mine, too. I hope to meet up with you guys for at least one breakfast.
  15. Same here. It's one of my favorite films. Liked it when it first came out and it got better with each viewing. I recently picked up the Criterion release, but haven't watched it yet.
  16. Supposedly Tidal has superior streaming quality available. They don't give you any specs, though. Someone gave me access through a Family Plan, but I haven't A/B'd it against Amazon.
  17. I'm afraid to look at it because I know there will be conflicts-galore!
  18. If you already have Prime, then Music Unlimited is $7.99/mo, or $79/yr (annual payment)
  19. I use it. They DO have a pretty extensive catalog. You should take the free offer and see if they have the kind of stuff you want.
  20. I've only listened to it a couple of times, and it could be a sleeper. But having said that ... it isn't grabbing my attention, so far. Definitely looking forward to Sun of Goldfinger!
  21. I saw Alessi/Coltrane at the Winter Jazzfest and then bought the CD after the show. Only listened to the album a couple of times, but they were much more dynamic live.
  22. Hey, Randy. I probably won't know until I get there and rendezvous with my friends. I should be able to make it to at least one, I think. Thanks, Chuck! New York Times Big Ears Festival Will Throw ECM Records a 50th Birthday Party
  23. Haven't been to the Royal Room, but my friend lives near there. It's run by Wayne Horvitz. Definitely worth checking their calendar.
  24. That's cheap! I'm at the Hyatt for around $150/night, but there are 3 of us sharing a room ... so about the same.
  25. ABSÎNT sure sounds interesting! I'm a nig fan of Berne. Just saw him last week at the NYC WJF w/Halvorson and Formanek.
