Larry Kart Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 I was there but too far back to catch what the lady was saying. If she meant, "Give David Boykin a solo," she must not have been aware that the talented Boykin is frequently somewhat unwilling to step into the spotlight, if in fact that's what this musical situation called for. But then Boykin did get to take some strong solos here, and Maksimowicz was impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 She looked to me like she was talking to Boykin, like "let the other guy play, he's visiting here and we NEED him to play a solo so we can justify bring him in" or some weird promoter/advocate shit like that. I'd bet lunch money that the lady was putting up Maksimowicz at her crib, or at some friend's crib, or something like that, and felt like she needed to run interference for him on the bandstand as well as off it. That's what it looked like to me anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what it looked like to me anyway. That's how it may have looked, but in fact at that point in the concert Maksimowicz had been playing much of the time and Boykin not so much. But again, I felt that was because Boykin sometimes tends to be a bit diffident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted November 4, 2011 Report Share Posted November 4, 2011 Wow...goes to show how deceptive just a small clip can be, because it looked like Boykin was playing when the lady walked up, and then he gave her a nice little explosive "fuck off" with the horn and then quit playing.
