BruceW Posted June 12, 2005 Report Posted June 12, 2005 Hey All, Yesterday I saw Joey DeFrancesco at the Playboy Jazz Festival. Man, this cat was really rockin' the place. It was so great to see a group get into that "jazz groove" that is the mainstay of jazz. He made a verbal tribute fo Jimmy Smith and played Back At The Chicken Shack and it was a show stopper. First time I ever saw Joey live. What a show AND his skills are so great. Kenny Burrell guested with Joey's trio and it was absolutely great. BruceW aka Vibeman Quote

BruceW aka Vibeman ← "Joey DeFrancesco at Playboy Festival, Joey jammin' on his organ" I want to have fun with that line, but that would be wrong... But seriously, that would be a great time. The.. seeing of the musicians of whom you spoke, thing.. uh... Quote
Soul Stream Posted June 12, 2005 Report Posted June 12, 2005 Argg. The ol' "organ" joke... No wonder we had to resort to calling it by it's "B3" brand name. Quote

Soul Stream Posted June 13, 2005 Report Posted June 13, 2005 O.K...I'll give you a pass. Didn't notice the connection to Playboy, so...that's KIND of funny. Just don't get used to it. Quote
BruceW Posted June 13, 2005 Author Report Posted June 13, 2005 Okay guys, Joey jammin' on his B3. Now you can play with this.... Hugh Hef was there with about 7 blond beauties at his table. Two of them were the most gorgeous girls you ever want to see in this life....... if you are lucky, you'll see them in your dreams! Ever wonder how Hugh stays so young..... In the meantime, Joe D was rocking the whole Hollywood Bowl. Bruce Quote

With regards to the Playboy fest, with all that eye candy around, I would have a hard time playing for sure. It would also be the antithesis of where I played this weekend. Quote
