Steve Reynolds Posted May 6, 2014 Report Posted May 6, 2014 Me Likey to hear the GREAT John Edwards and cohort drummer Steve Noble with Herr Brotzmann!!! Quote
Holy Ghost Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 (edited) Yeah ten years later, but what an incredible drummer Han Bennick is: worth rehearsing how exciting he is still! Hope this allowed: And this from Amherst: Kinda like Mingus/Richmond, Brotz/Bennink are another magical combo. Edited March 28, 2018 by Holy Ghost Quote

The 2006 Amherst concert is available on CD on the Bro label (run by Eremite). Some of his best music is available on that label. Bought a ticket to see Peter Brotzmann in Melbourne 5 minutes ago for about USD 15. Can't believe it, every local pub band charges more. Quote

Yeah, I couldn't believe it either when a club here in Cleveland last year was only asking for $20. Albeit, it was a strange line up, I kinda was hoping for a "Die Like a Dog" line up, but regardless, it Brotz! Now that's a steal not a deal! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 28, 2018 Report Posted March 28, 2018 Was it with Heather Leigh? Quote
Holy Ghost Posted March 29, 2018 Report Posted March 29, 2018 Sounds right, it was a female and she was playing some weird form of a synthesizer or something. It was just him and her. Quote

It was just him and her. I was at both shows when Brotzmann and Leigh played the Beachland Ballroom. Although Brotzmann is known for his intensity, I think that in duos he shows that in his heart he is actually a very melodic reedist. I know that Brotzmann puts his pants on one leg at a time like the rest of us, but it was kind of surreal to see him perusing the Whole Foods salad bar with Leigh. He comes across as a pretty quiet, self-effacing man, but I have never spoken to him at a gig. Edited March 29, 2018 by Justin V Quote
mjazzg Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 I spoke to him briefly after an Oto gig and he was charming, almost self-deprecating in his description of the sets he'd just played I've been enjoying this album a lot recently.the combination really clicks for me. Probably the first time I've knowingly listened to a "stoner rock band" as the label describes them Quote
clifford_thornton Posted March 30, 2018 Report Posted March 30, 2018 I interviewed him in 2002 and he was a very kind and yes, self-effacing gentleman. My interactions since then have been similar. He's a good person in addition to being a fantastic musician and artist. Quote
romualdo Posted March 31, 2018 Report Posted March 31, 2018 (edited) Totally blown away!!!! just seen that Brotz is doing an Australian tour & playing here in Brisbane on May 5 (Institute of Modern Art) On 28/03/2018 at 5:45 PM, Misterioso said: Completely agree!

I've looked on a couple of sites here in Australia & there do not appear to be any tickets on sale as of yet. Edited March 31, 2018 by romualdo Quote

After seeing the announcement on PB's homepage, I subscribed to their email newsletter. A few days ago, they announced the concert and provided a link to oztix for purchasing tickets. The venue here is quite a bit rougher than the Brisbane one and certainly not known for attracting a jazz audience. Will be interesting. Quote
Adam Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Two concerts in Los Angeles in early June at the Zebulon Cafe with Keiji Haino! https://www.facebook.com/events/150384332326426/ https://www.facebook.com/events/151713368874142/ Quote
