I believe he is making a stand because you are purposely doing it to irritate him and only for this reason. That said, I would use the ignore function and move on with the more important things in life. m~

Hmmmmmmmm................... ...why am I always taking photos of shiny headed guitar players?

I'm sure one of these photoshop "geeks" can put some hair on him!!!

Fathead Newman this Saturday night, Mel Rhyne next Wednesday and Slide Hampton on the 17th! m~

Mark, any way you can post/link it? Thanks Erik....and hi there Sal......I don't have a link to the actual page but this is the photograph. It was taken at this years Chicago Jazz Fest as John played with MMW. It is used along with an interview of Sco by DB contributor Eric Bishop in the current issue (with Stanley Clarke on the cover). m~

I have a scanner but I doubt it can print from negatives (and yes I am talking about negatives not undeveloped film)- do you know if all scanners can do this? I also have the impression that printing from negatives gives a superior image to scanning negatives and then printing from them - do you have an opinion on that? anyway, I don't want to buy a new scanner just for a few rolls of negatives. But thanks for the creative idea. Certainly every generation away from the original negative would yield a poorer quality print and you're really starting with a small negative and the larger print you make....the fuzzier it becomes....that said, thank god it not one of those disc negatives that had about a dozen pencil erasure size negs on a cardboard wheel....what a mess....actually the size is pretty close! I'll ask my lab if they can print them and I'll pm you. Mark~

Well.........yeah! Conn speaks the truth. I'll miss this space - it always seemed like a good combination of free speech without heavyhanded moderation. Must be a LOT of hard work keeping it going - both hardware-wise and software-wise. As far as live chats, Google has some sort of "Chats" module as part of their GMail service. I haven't tried it out, but it might be worth looking into. For that matter, we could probably start a "Google Group" that could function as a message board without the hardware/software headaches of something like this. I sent my email to Chris, BTW. Hey Conn, don't sell yourself short, you can annoy people in many different ways

I just flat out refuse to go....even if they shut it down...I'm staying right here m~

...about what?

Roy Hargrove @ the Dakota in Minneapolis.

...that's why I said "shit happens". Unfortunately injuries are part of the game and certainly have a say in how many games play out. Very tough for any team to lose a bunch of starters for several games in a row and win them all....expecially against a team like the Pats/Colts. Losing your #1 receiver and a couple of your starting offensive linemen plus three other starters is not good....plus that hack Vinatieri they picked up in the off season is killing them ! m

Matthew Shipp....

...drummer? What's a drummer?............ ..........

..and one of Fred Anderson in the old Velvet Lounge. m

...another of Dewey.

...all photos mail. Here are a couple others looking for a good home. Dewey Redman...at the now defunct Jazz Showcase.

I think they will be ok but any team.....EVEN the Patriots would not fare well with 6 or more starters out at the same time. The Colts have played 6 games in the past 31 days...which is an issue as well. Despite the two losses, they are basically 10 poorly played minutes vs. the Pats and a missed field goal away from being 11-0....but shit happens. They now have nine days before their next game....a little time for the guys to heal a bit....looking forward to December! m~

I'll see Lonnie with Fareed Haque in a couple weeks.....now that will be a killer show! m

...and what is a "sneaky cigarette"?

Indictment, inschmitement....you still gotta prove it. Good luck with that. And now, you're going to see all of the evidence that he used steroids and then lied about it. I hope you're prepared, and also prepared to eat crow to all of the people here that you annoyed to no end with your nonsensical assertions. I hope you're ready to take it in the shorts when Bonds is exhonerated. Besides, I have always maintained that if Barry Bonds was proven guilty of taking steroids then I would be the first to admit it. And, even if he did, they do not make you see the ball better and they do not cause you to hit HRs. Further, if found guilty, I want a full scale investigation of any baseball player who holds a record or a place in the HOF. Otherwise, it is and was and ever will be a media lynching and federal witch hunt. ....here we go again!

I've seen them in the past 2 years together but I would agree they have spent more time playing apart than together for a while....not sure why other than maybe Lonnie wants to bring his own band on the road? m

...going from 1-10 in 2006 to 19-8 in 2007 is certainly a big turn around! m~

Michael Wolff Friday night, Stefon Harris on Saturday and Mel Rhyne next Wednesday.....Roy Hargrove followed by Dr. Lonnie Smith/Fareed Haque later this month! m~

I had planned on attending all days of it but I swear the airline rates were climbing before my eyes. By the time I was done with airline/hotel, it was just crazy so I cancelled. I was looking forward to seeing William Claxton with B. Shank and Dennis Hopper.. Sad to miss it but literally, I found an airline/hotel package...hit the submit button and it says....this is no longer available as airline costs have risen....right before my eyes . If you've never been to the Getty....worth the trip out to LA just for it! m~
