Check that shit out. Maybe I can make that gig.

Hmmm.... the timing and distance is shitty for me but there's a small chance I can make it.

That would be great! Bring friends! This is a "door gig" which means we get whatever we make off the door. So bring out some folks!! Tell everybody you know! Shout it from the rooftops!!

ORGANISSIMO IS COMING!! ORGANISSIMO IS COMING!!

There's something funny about yelling out "Organissimo" and "Coming" at the same time.

I was there on Thursday night. It was a fantastic show! Sadly, only about ten people were in the audience, but the band was cooking nonetheless. They played several favorites off of both discs (including "Stomp Yo Feets," "Brother Ray," and "Jimmy Smith Goes To Washington" as well as their wonderful version of "Tenderly"). I had a wonderful time! The best moment came at the end when they played their encore...

They asked if anybody had any requests, and I called for "Peaches en Regalia." Joe turned to Randy and said, "That's gotta be Alexander." Indeed! It was great meeting you guys! Congratulations on an amazing show and good luck on the rest of your tour! Hope Boston and NY went as well! And rest that voice, Jim...

Yeah, I spoke with the owner. He wants the fellas back and was apologetic about the low turnout. "Weeknight, beautiful fall day (color tours), and generally a slow month...". But he and I knew before hand that this was likely. Most importantly, Peter dug the show immensely. He wants the fellas back, this time with a better date and bigger send up. And, Jim, he thought your socks were cool! "Black light on those feet...white socks, man, he has got to keep that... very cool!"

Peter has a very nice venue, and we hope to do more business with him in the future. He certainly is game.

At any rate, I am with you Alexander. I would have called out for Peaches as well. I am glad you did.

Alexander, it was great to meet you! The Van Dyck is an amazing sounding room. Too bad the load-in was a total back-breaker!!! I'm still recovering from that one!
