colinmce Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Des Moines!? Fucking kill me now. I hate my life. Quote
Leeway Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Interesting that they are going with a piano player now (again). Don't know Guus Janssen at all. With Misha, it seems to me it was as much about "wit" as about piano playing. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 With Misha, it seems to me it was as much about "wit" as about piano playing. Nothing wrong with having a lot of both to work with. Misha is brilliant and a fun guy to hang out with. Sad to know he's ailing. Quote
JSngry Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Des Moines!? Fucking kill me now. I hate my life. Now Orleans-ish to Austin via Houston is not a killer drive, at least not if you got Road Dog chops, which of course not everybody does, just some freaks do. But if you're one of those freaks,, hey.

Now Orleans-ish to Austin via Houston is not a killer drive, at least not if you got Road Dog chops, which of course not everybody does, just some freaks do. But if you're one of those freaks,, hey. And you can fly on Southwest Airlines between New Orleans/Austin in 80-90 minutes. Quote
JSngry Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Looks to be about a 6 hour drive. http://www.travelmath.com/drive-distance/from/Opelousas,+LA/to/Austin,+TX Quote
Steve Reynolds Posted April 1, 2015 Report Posted April 1, 2015 Do it, Colin Or ticket to NY and see them three times Quote
Homefromtheforest Posted April 2, 2015 Report Posted April 2, 2015 I've seen them at least 5 times over the last 20 years; would be strange for me to see them without Misha behind the piano... Quote
Utevsky Posted April 12, 2015 Report Posted April 12, 2015 I heard someone say this is billed as a "farewell" tour for the ICP. Does anyone know if there's any substance to that? Quote
epistrophy arts Posted April 13, 2015 Author Report Posted April 13, 2015 "I heard someone say this is billed as a "farewell" tour for the ICP. Does anyone know if there's any substance to that?" i'm organizing the Austin show and it was not presented that way to me.... however, in a couple of the listings, there is mention of that.... http://earshot.org/Events/Promo_Pages/promo_2015_05_ICP.html so, go see them!!!
