Jad Posted August 31, 2003 Report Share Posted August 31, 2003 No big news here, just a place to bitch. Playing three shows, one with Masada(!!!), but I'm probably going to be attending the birth of my daughter. My wife isn't sympathetic, but someone here has to understand my disappointment (not that it's really a difficult choice, but still...This town has so little jazz that this is an event!). Oh well, Jason Moran is here next month. I'll be there for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late Posted September 1, 2003 Report Share Posted September 1, 2003 Jad (Nick?), An early congrats on the newborn! I'll probably be making the Masada show at the Hult, so I'll post a report here. Couldn't believe he's having three shows in our little hamlet. One, evidently, is a commissioned classical piece that he's debuting, and the other is a Cobra (with local musicians?) performance. The wallet will likely only allow for one show, so it has to be Masada. I think I'm going to be in L.A. when Moran comes. But you'll pick up reporting duties, I'm sure. p.s. The city library has a copy of "West Coast Hot," which, if you haven't already checked it out, is a must-must-must listen. A double bill of the Horace Tapscott Sextet and John Carter-Bobby Bradford Quartet. It's usually checked out, but you can always place a hold.

Man with the Golden Arm Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Congrats Jad! Wouldn't worry at all for there will be times during the birthing process that'll be just like being at a Zorn show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 Yes, congratulations! It'll be something to have a newzorn, I mean newborn child around! I hope you're caught up on sleep, 'cause that's it for a LONG time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jad Posted September 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 Baby's not due until beginning of Oct. And now that I think about it, the Moran show is risky too. This being our second, I've got a feeling she'll be early, and that show is a week before the due date. Damn! If only I'd known in Feb who'd been coming to town, planning would have been different. Two talents coming to town of this caliber within a month is a very rare thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
