marcello Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 I'll be there 1/8 - 1/10. I'm going to Dizzy's on Sunday 1/8 to Hear Jimmy Owens' Monk Project. On Monday 1/9 I'll be at At Millesime, in the Carlton Hotel ( Madison and 29th) , where Joe Locke has a APAP showcase (7PM). On Tuesday 1/10, after dinner with my daughter, it's up for grabs!

marcello Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Mark Gross is really fine: IGUANA RESTAURANT: 240W 54th St at Bway. 212-399-9457. Free adm. Jan 9: 8pm Vandoren Jam feat Mark Gross Qrt. Interesting: LUCKY CHENG: 24 1st Av (bet 1st & 2nd Sts). 212-995-5500. www.luckychengsnyc.com. Ev Mon: 8&9:30pm $10 adm Butch Morris Lucky Cheng Orch. Blurb: Everything leans toward on the exotic side at the renowned drag queen eatery, so Morris’s vivid abstract improves be a good fit. The conductor leads 20 courageous instrumentalists (lots of strings this time around) through a vocabulary of gestures that puts his ideas into their heads and our ears. VILLAGE VANGUARD: 178 7th Av S at 11th St. 212-255-4037 1/10-15: Geri Allen, Esperanza Spalding, Terri Lyne Carrington Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking for food recommendations, tell me what you're interested in... I can attest to the fact that Pete is a go to guy for food recommendations. My mouth still waters when I think about that place we went to for a pre Vision Festival hang. Edited December 31, 2011 by relyles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Johnson Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Chuck--if you think you'll hit VV on Monday to see the orchestra, let me know--I'll buzz up and join you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeway Posted December 31, 2011 Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 The Marsalis Brothers and Kenny G (at the Blue Note!!!!!!) will both be in town while you are there. I hope you and NYC survive. If you go down to the Village, a very charming Italian place is Trattoria Spaghetto, 232 Bleecker St. After the dinner, walk around the block to Rocco's (243 Bleecker) for incredibly delicious cannolis. Enjoy the trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
