Free Show!!! Pffft! April 20, 2008

"Last fall, ex-Ghostcar drummer Clay Stinnett invited me to play an improv show with him and a handful of other musicians at 6th Street Live. We never rehearsed; in fact, some of the players had never met each other prior to the gig. It was some of the most fun and cathartic music-making I've done since the early days of "Lee and Carl's Jam" at the Wreck Room (RIP). A few days ago, Clay and I ran into each other, and we talked about doing something similar again.

The folks at the CHAT ROOM graciously agreed to give us a venue, and so at 10pm next Sunday, 4.20.2008, we're going to repeat the experiment. With us will be my good friend Matt Hembree (Goodwin, Pablo & the Hemphill 7, Stoogeaphilia) on bass, Tony Chapman (ex-Ghostcar) on guitar and synth, and possibly some other surprise guests. It'll be extemporized, unrehearsed, and in-the-moment. We might fall on our asses, or we might levitate the room. Please come join us."
