Peter Johnson Posted September 29, 2005 Report Posted September 29, 2005 Yup--jonesin' hard to get back east--I'll be in NYC Sunday through Monday, Philly the rest of the time. Will you be around? It doesn't look there's a lot of music that weekend, oddly, other than George Cables @ Lincoln Center, who I saw in Seattle last week! Come on, Greg, please get something on the books for NYC or Philly October 22-24!!! ← Peter, I take you're going to be around at that time? ← Quote

I've got some friends visiting from Phoenix that weekend. So more than likely we will be in Manhattan. Quote
Peter Johnson Posted September 29, 2005 Report Posted September 29, 2005 Nice! I'll drop you a line when it gets closer. It would be great to (finally) grab a brew! Quote
catesta Posted October 5, 2005 Report Posted October 5, 2005 I'm still going to make the gig. Probably not a lot of time for socializing after the show since it's late on a Sunday, so it might be cool to hang a little before. I'm wondering if anyone has plans for a drink or two somewhere close by before the show? Quote

skeith Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 I just noticed that the show starts at 10:45? Is that correct? Quote
Free For All Posted October 6, 2005 Report Posted October 6, 2005 Somebody please take some pictures to post! Quote

Ron S Posted October 7, 2005 Report Posted October 7, 2005 JEEEEEEZ! Who knew Greg had that much JUICE??? Oh yeah, except in Philly, of course. Quote
BFrank Posted October 7, 2005 Report Posted October 7, 2005 Today's NY Times blurb: ORGANISSIMO (Sunday) This Michigan-based organ trio resurrects the sound of 1960's soul jazz but with a touch less grit and grease; the members appear here in support of a likeable new album, "This is the Place" (Big O). 10:45 p.m., Kenny's Castaways, 157 Bleecker Street, West Village, (212) 979-9762; call for cover. (Chinen) Quote
catesta Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 Now I'm gonna have to show up early just to get a seat. Quote

Big Wheel Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 Jim is posting from his cell phone on the road and typing on those things can be pretty laborious. Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 Yeah, typing on a cell sucks. We're in NYC now and I'm staying at a friend's with a REAL computer and internet access! Woohoo!!! We got into NYC at about 5:30pm and it took another hour and a half to find a lot that would accept our big-ass cargo van (what a drag that was). But we made it, that's what counts. Randy is staying in the village with an old friend. Tonight we went to an amazing Turkish restaurant, complete with a live belly-dancer (who tried to get me to dance with her... I'm not shy of the stage, but dancin' ain't my thing, honey... sorry) and then went to see Dave Stryker and Steve Slagel (with Victor Lewis on drums) at the Jazz Standard. Great show! We're looking forward to hanging out tomorrow and doing the hit tomorrow night! Should be a great time! Quote

We don't have to load in until an hour before the hit, so there's plenty of time to hang out - which I would certainly enjoy. Quote

I sent an email to maren and will probably call her later on. At one time she said she was going for sure, but I've not heard from her since. Edited October 9, 2005 by catesta Quote
7/4 Posted October 9, 2005 Report Posted October 9, 2005 Doesn't have to be West Village if you have a lot of time. Quote
