We are playing Baker's on a Saturday Night!!!

Saturday, May 28th!!!!

Baker's is the world's oldest jazz club.

It is a great sounding room, with

an incredible vibe. The staff is friendly,

parking is secured, and the service is great.

It has been home

to many huge names in Jazz, and now

has opened it's doors to us.

What a great night this should prove to be.

If you are in the Detroit area that weekend,

pls stop out. Come up and say hi, and if

I still got some money, I'll buy ya a drink.

I may have to make this trip :) ! I spent a few days there photographing Baker's 70th Anniversary show a year ago with Donald Bryd, Fuller and McPherson. Cool place to see a show and Jim/Juanita are great owners as well! Lots of history here!

Isn't Baker's Keyboard Lounge the the same place James Carter recorded a CD that was released about a year ago? Sounds like a top of the line venue. Hope you guys knock some socks off.

Up over and out.

I would like to mention that we will have the ever-funky and soulful Mr. Johnny Gist with us at Baker's Keyboard Lounge on May 28th playing tenor saxophone (and maybe some alto, too!) Johnny really adds to the greaze-factor and it's a pleasure to play with him!

This is going to be a great time, folks!

After having been in the room, there is no doubt in my mind that Organissimo is going to knock their socks off. And Johnny Gist...., Oh man, this is not to be missed. Johnny is a wonderful young showman with a greazy/traditional (and yet fresh) sound, to die for!!! His star is also rising!!!!

I wish I could be there! That's going to be such a great gig.

A few years after y'all hit the big time, you could do a homecoming gig for all your fans back home in Lansing. Heck, you could even release it as a live CD.

Something like this....

I'm glad to see the band in this area more often. I have my tickets for tenny st.

I might even make the Baker's Keyboard set also.

Sorry we weren't at the Joey show. It was beyond our control.

I hope to see you at Baker's, however! Please come up and introduce yourself!

Just a reminder. Saturday is our debut at Baker's Keyboard Lounge B-)

I mentioned this site over at a Guided by Voices site and one of the regulars is a dj and knows about this show. I want to say his name is R. Wilder, but it could just be a board name. He said he was looking forward to it.

It is R. Wilder. Here's his post:

Organissimo!! These guys are my buds! The drummer, Randy Marsh, is a good friend, great guy and one of the finest jazz drummers in Michigan.

That is a great board, too, the best jazz related I've found.

Organissimo are doing my station's Jazznight simulcast later in the month.
