so much to say, so much time to say it in...
i believe we left off with our heroes, the respect sextet, on a mini-tour up up to rochester, ny. the concerts went great, in particular, hanks saloon in brooklyn, and the bop shop in rochester. thanks to all who showed up to support the group. keep your ears to the ground for a new album (?) (!)
for those of you who couldn't make it out to hear respect last time, we've got a few gigs coming up! check the events page for more details.
in other news, i started working as an usher for jazz at lincoln center. not a bad gig; i get to hear some pretty good concerts.
anyone interested in learning about the political, social and musical history of jazz at lincoln center, should definitely check out the last chapter of eric porter's book what is this thing called jazz?.
oh yeah! been wanting to flaunt your love of the respect sextet, but don't know where to start? click here for the answer.
more info comin up!
