Tonight, at the Cantab Lounge, Mass Ave in Cambridge:

DUENDE!!!

We’ll be doing several cuts from the new album (not yet available for sale, sadly) and of course older stuff.

Come. Enjoy. Buy stuff; I’m hungry.

Jeffery McDaniel seems to be someone a lot of people listen to, and for good reason. While hunting for something else, I discovered this:

I imagine a lot of you have already seen it.

I was in that old-timers’ showcase with Mr. M, and he was (as always) terrific. I don’t know him more than to say hi to.

It’s nice to feel that I’m not alone in my estimate of the current state of slam, and of NPS. I can’t think of a place in the piece that I’m not in agreement with, both positive and negative.

Go, read, contribute.

Time to get ready.
