NYC 6/25 and 6/26

[bertrand]

I will be in NYC this week-end for the Shorter/Hancock/Holland/Blade show.

I didn't see anything really exciting in the main clubs otherwise going on. Anyone know of anything in some lesser-known place? Anything that starts early so I can bring my 4-year old? How's the jam session at Cleopatra's Needle?

Thanks,

Bertrand.

i don't know if we share the same idea of what's exciting, but here's a list of the shows i'm planning to attend this weekend:

Birdland – Lew Tabackin & Randy Brecker

Upover Café - Anthony Wonsey Quintet

Smoke – Harold Mabern Trio

Fat Cat – Tim Armacost

Sweet Rhythm - Ray Anderson & Wycliffe Gordon

I was thinking about Wonsey - do you know who's playing with him?

Also, Armacost at Fat Cat is an option - who's with him?

The other three don't really tempt me.

Thanks,

Bertrand.
