Ron S Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Man, Bertrand's got us all beat! Of course, we're still waiting for Sangrey's list... AND, Bertrand's got at least 2 continents covered. Quote
sheldonm Posted April 5, 2005 Author Report Posted April 5, 2005 ...oh yeah, add cannonball addict to my list! Quote
Aggie87 Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 (edited) My list is short. I met Sidewinder, who was visiting from the U.K, in Stuttgart in Vinyl West, a great used store! Had a nice, short discussion with him, then it was time to brave the afternoon traffic home. I recall he had a pretty decent haul of LPs from that place B-) Edited April 5, 2005 by Aggie87 Quote
Son-of-a-Weizen Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Stefan Wood Marvin (back at BN.....I don't know if he lurks here anymore??) Free for All Spoke to KB & Dmitry on the phone and came within an inch of hooking up w/Tod (Out to Lunch) in Boston last year. Wife & I spent the weekend up in NYC and was hoping I might bump into Chris Albertson sipping a glass of vino at either Henry's or Carne up at Broadway & W. 104th. B-) Some pleasant little neighborhood joints up there around Smoke. Quote
JSngry Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Met as a result of contact thru the board: Joe Shawn ChuckNessa&MrsChuckNessa Lonson&MrsLonson Big Al Also taled to Kevin B on the phone once. Nice guy, and I still regret the "spat" we had here a while back. Previously known: Rostasi&MrsRostasi SlideAdvantageRedux&MrsSlideAdvantageRedux PorkerDavis&variousPorkettes Agriffin&MrsAgriffin Think that's it. Don't get around much anymore. If there's a Saturday dance and I'm not playing at it, I can usually be found at home. Quote
Big Wheel Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 (edited) I may have also briefly met makpjazz57 (Marla) at an Eric Alexander show at Scullers a couple years back--I think Kevin and Rob introduced us, but am not 100% sure. And shrugs and I were at the same William Parker/Marshall Allen/Kidd Jordan show about 4 years ago, but didn't see each other...and possibly the same thing happened with Dmitry at the Andrew Hill "Beautiful Day" Birdland shows. Oh yeah, we Easterners are REAL friendly. I didn't mention that the Dmitry thing was a complete coincidence--neither knew the other would be there until a review of the show/CD was posted on the board. shrugs and I got in touch before the William Parker show and planned to meet, but he left at intermission (the show kinda sucked) and we didn't manage to spot each other before that point. He had to drive all the way home from Boston to somewhere in Connecticut, I believe, so pretty understandable not to waste time getting home... As for Marla...I think I was in a hurry to split, maybe? Edited April 5, 2005 by Big Wheel Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Oh yeah, Shawn - another one. Maybe I should start over. Michael Weiss too. Spose I could blame old age. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Probably met Maren, but neither of us would remember. Quote
JSngry Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 I think I would remember meeting maren... Quote
rostasi Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Oh, yes! Mrs. JSngry too, but she's not on the board, so I skipped. Lovely and gracious woman - and the KIDS too! (actually Charlie has posted here, so...) ...and yes! Mr. PorkerDavis. Quote
JSngry Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 (actually Charlie has posted here, so...) Add the legendary Dional to the list! Quote
Big Wheel Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Oh yeah, Shawn - another one. Maybe I should start over. Michael Weiss too. Spose I could blame old age. I think I may have chatted briefly on the phone with Michael Weiss when I was the jazz director at my college radio station. Usually I got all these calls to check on airplay from people whose CDs were complete dreck, and I remember being surprised to get a call from someone whose album I actually enjoyed... Quote
maren Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Jim and Alison Alfredson, on their visit to NYC this past February. And I'm quite certain that I was within 10 feet of Mr. Son-of-a-Weizen on the sidewalk at 7th and C the last Sunday in August, as he was quaffing a stein at Zum Schneiden while I schlepped groceries to the car I rented to drive my son back to college... but alas, we only discovered this coincidence later... And I bought a fair amount of vinyl (and browsed through even more) on State Street in Madison, WI circa 1970-77 -- so I'll bet Chuck Nessa and I have laid eyes on each other... Quote
maren Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 Probably met Maren, but neither of us would remember. I guess I should scroll down through the new posts while I'm typing! Quote
WD45 Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 I talked to Dr. Rat on the phone once. That is a short list, and not technically meeting in person, actually. Oh, and "little high people" is my man from way back. I have met him in person. Quote
AfricaBrass Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 My list is too long to post... Okay... I'm lying... I'm a loser with no friends... I've said it! Actually, I've talked with SheldonM on the phone while working on his website and have exchanged a number of nice emails with some of you. The only person I've actually met is Edward. He's a fine fellow. BTW - Edward, if you're reading this, I will send you those cds... Quote

You didn't happen to walk past the Heidelberg Restaurant up on E. 86th yesterday afternoon 'bout 4:15, did you. I was standing out there in the light drizzle waiting to share a Camel Light & a Bitburger Pils w/you. B-) Quote

scottb Posted April 5, 2005 Report Posted April 5, 2005 I got a PM from Big Al once (back when I was sidewndr. I think he was trying to reach sidewinder cause I had no idea what he was talking about.) Does that count? Can't get any of you to come down this way ever since that movie Deliverance. Quote
