GregN Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Blues Alley I've always wanted to see the nation's capital. I may just tag along. Who can I pick up along the way? Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I've only been once. This will be fun!!! Bertrand, are you in? Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Is it capitol or capital in this case? I always get those messed up. Quote
RDK Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Fuck! Nothing personal guys, but i'm in D.C. next week. So I'll be missing you up and down the Eastern seaboard... Quote
Alexander Hawkins Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 The nation's capital, I believe. The seat of government is on Capitol Hill. I think. Quote
bertrand Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Blues Alley, also known as 'Dues Alley' Barring unforeseen circumstances, I will be there. I'll get the word out to other board members. Bertrand. Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I caught that shocking piece about Second Chance Body Armor on the network news last night. Maybe I'll raid the White House dumpsters for a vest, then swing on by and see if the media fuss and fingerpointing is gounded in reality......or just more overreaction on their part. Quote
Stefan Wood Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Son of a gun!!!!!!!!! I'm there!! Hell yes I'm there!!!!!!!!!! Quote
bertrand Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 (edited) I had a thought. If you guys are in town earlier that day, or the next day, I could take you to the Library of Congress to check out all of the copyright deposits I've been collecting. There's some Larry Young, Big John Patton, Lonnie Smith, Grant Green and other goodies. Bertrand. Edited October 28, 2005 by bertrand Quote
Ron S Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 Congrats on BLUES ALLEY! Now, WTF is up with PHILLY??? You've got Boston, NYC, Pittsburgh, and DC, and you're missing the FRICKIN' ORGAN JAZZ TRIO CAPITAL OF THE UNIVERSE. Not to mention that Philly's a bigger market than all those other places 'cept NYC. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I'd love to play Philly. But it just hasn't happened yet. Be patient, young Skywalker. Quote
Ron S Posted September 27, 2005 Report Posted September 27, 2005 I'm not sure how much longer I can hold out. Quote
GregN Posted September 28, 2005 Author Report Posted September 28, 2005 The force is very strong within you... I can feel it! Quote
Ron S Posted September 28, 2005 Report Posted September 28, 2005 But not strong enough to get you guys a Philly gig. Quote
GregN Posted September 28, 2005 Author Report Posted September 28, 2005 But not strong enough to get you guys a Philly gig. ← Come on up to the NY gig! The more the merrier, me thinks. g Quote
Soul Stream Posted September 28, 2005 Report Posted September 28, 2005 Man, you guys are getting an awesome tour lined up. Congrats! Quote
catesta Posted September 29, 2005 Report Posted September 29, 2005 But not strong enough to get you guys a Philly gig. ← My guess is you would make NYC if it wasn't on a Sunday? Quote
Ron S Posted September 29, 2005 Report Posted September 29, 2005 But not strong enough to get you guys a Philly gig. My guess is you would make NYC if it wasn't on a Sunday? Exactly. And I'd even stop off in Queens first for one of your delectable dinners. Quote
GregN Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Posted September 30, 2005 Man, you guys are getting an awesome tour lined up. Congrats! ← Thank you Soul. Btw, do you guys do Jazz and/or Blues down there? cuz, it would be cool to get both organissimo and Root Doctor down there next year. I mean if you guys like that stuff. You got to know I am teasin' about my question. The music down there is awesome. In fact, with the blues in particular, I saw a four day festival out in CA with Texas based blues icons. It was smokin'! Vast talent pool for sure! And Houston and Dallas have their jazz studs as well. It would be an honor to play Texas. g Quote
mr jazz Posted October 1, 2005 Report Posted October 1, 2005 Congrats on Blues alley! I'll put it on the calendar. I only wish I could make the Wayne Shorter show tonight. Quote
GregN Posted October 2, 2005 Author Report Posted October 2, 2005 (edited) Congrats on Blues alley! I'll put it on the calendar. I only wish I could make the Wayne Shorter show tonight. ← That is great news! The part about you comin to the org show, not the other part. That part blows. I saw Wayne and Herbie at Michigan theater about 8 years ago; front row and centered. Awesome and then some... Edited October 6, 2005 by GregN Quote
GregN Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Posted October 10, 2005 The Blues Alley Gig is being rescheduled to a later date. Likely early Feb. g Quote
7/4 Posted October 10, 2005 Report Posted October 10, 2005 Dang, I was thinking of driving down, I don't know about driving that far in Feb. weather. Maybe I could take the train if it's close to the venue. Quote
GregN Posted October 10, 2005 Author Report Posted October 10, 2005 And there goes Philly . . . . ← Actually, that makes Philly more likely. Again, many clubs are booked until early next year. So, a Philly gig in November was lookin' bleak. Quote
