Bleecker/W 3rd. Two girls singing original rock/punk/funk and soul backed by guitar, drums and yours truly on the Epic 5. If you're in the neighborhood stop by and say hello. -Jack jack Junior Username: jack Post Number: 19 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, November 22, 2005 - 8:00 am:    I Like Orange Dec 1st. 9:30pm. Kenny's Castaways (Bleeker b/w Sullivan and Thompson) New York City At the last gig we were followed by a Berklee (College of Music) band and the bass player gets on stage after me with my EXACT bass. Five string/mahogany/bocate Epic. I thought he'd grabbed mine; almost got mighty angry. Anyway I told him to surf over to the club and introduce himself. And the bass sounded good from the floor. So check it out if you're around NYC Thurs the 1st of Dec. You might get two 'Becs for the price of one. Happy Thanksgiving to everybody. -Jack richbass939 Senior Member Username: richbass939 Post Number: 484 Registered: 11-2004 Posted on Tuesday, November 22, 2005 - 4:22 pm:    Jack, glad he didn't "borrow" your bass without asking. That was an honest reaction of yours, though. What's the chance that the exact same bass would follow yours.

I was in there once in 1977, not playing, just visiting. jack Junior Username: jack Post Number: 20 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Wednesday, November 23, 2005 - 9:13 pm:    Rich- When I saw this kid jump up on stage bass in hand (even though my case was closed five feet away) I almost shot first and asked questions later. Only a silly grin on his face stopped me. Anyway, really nice guy, and good player. Dave- Although my bandmates are pretty sure we're two days away from selling out MSG (and I'll do everything in my power to help them), this is all I really wanted when I moved to NYC. To play music I (co-)wrote in some legendary venues. My dad (a pretty square non-musician) told me about seeing Bob Dylan and others at these places I've played, The Bitter End, Back Fence, etc. It's just cool to be up there and think about who's been before you. Cheers, Happy Thanksgiving. PS I didn't know Fernandez made Alembic copies (over in the eBay thread). Aside from the lack of emblem, that looks pretty good. If I saw one in a pawn shop for a grand I'd be the first sucker with his wallet open. I'd be interested to see how that turns out. I assume Alembic monitors those sites for copies. -Jack davehouck Moderator Username: davehouck Post Number: 2641 Registered: 5-2002 Posted on Friday, November 25, 2005 - 9:19 am:    Yes, Mica has frequently responded to listings on Ebay. Of course she's doing a million other things as well and I don't know if she has seen this particular listing. jack Junior Username: jack Post Number: 27 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Wednesday, January 04, 2006 - 8:56 am:    I Like Orange Friday, 1/5, The Lion's Den, Sullivan btw.

Just reading posts, digging into the archives, I've learned a ton. There's a wide variety of talent in the contributors: lawyers, electricians, professional thieves (stockings!). PPS Somewhere on here there's a post about wearing Hawaiian shirts. Guilty!
