connoisseur series500 Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Just wanted to thank the band once more for a great evening. I got the chance to meet GregK from our board and we visited the Firefly for the first time. Was a little nervous about all the pictures of Blues artists on the wall and the crowd seemed to initially respond more towards the blues tracks. I wanted to hear JAZZ! Second and third sets we got it full blast. Randy: just wanted to remind you that you were inspired during those two sets. You are definitely no lazy drummer. Jim met an organist colleague in the audience so he was obligated to BURN! Joe was his usual solid self. Really loved the two Don Patterson tunes. Like your new song, "Smokin Section," along with the tunes from "Boogaloo Sisters." GregK is a really nice person. Look forward to the next time you're in town. WNMC take note!

connoisseur series500 Posted February 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Sorry! This post went into the wrong forum. Should be under "Organissimo Band Discussion." Jim: HELP!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe G Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Nice to see you too, Paul, as usual. Enjoyed meeting Greg as well, and I look forward to the next hang. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 Good times had by all! I like playing that club, although I had trouble hearing Joe (your speaker was turned away from me). But it's all good. We heard some cool stuff on WEMU on the way home... some new Brad Shepik... it was hip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connoisseur series500 Posted February 7, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 I can assure you that the audience had no trouble hearing Joe. In fact, until you moved your organ speaker, we could barely here you, but things were well balanced at the end. I noticed Joe had a real fan by the side of the wall. His head was bobbing up and down and he apparently plays guitar. He can tell a real pro! BTW, I did find those track listings. Thanks! You know, it isn't a bad session at all. Not as good as "Got a Good Thing Goin" but not bad. Not all the songs are the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GregK Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 I had a great time. I wish I could have stayed longer. Sounds like the second and third sets were good. I wanted to let the band know that as I was driving to the club, Michael G Nastos was mentioning the gig and he played one of your tunes on WEMU.

Joe G Posted February 7, 2004 Report Share Posted February 7, 2004 I noticed Joe had a real fan by the side of the wall. His head was bobbing up and down and he apparently plays guitar. Randy said the guy was playing Brazilian and classical guitar. I only met him briefly and didn't get to chat, but yeah, he was really digging it! There were two other guitarists seated at a table in front, too. Nice to get some love from my guitar brothers. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GregK Posted February 10, 2004 Report Share Posted February 10, 2004 Greg, I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to hang with you.. Hey, no problem. I did want to ask you, though, if that was Chunga's Revenge Zappa on your bass drum? I kept squinting at it, trying to figure it out, but my eyesight is so bad that it was never clear.

Indeed it is the "Chunga's Revenge" Zappa on my bass drum head.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
