Pretty excited to open up for him this saturday!!!!

If any HOD'ers are out, please introduce yourself. I'm playing for the John Huldt trio and will promptly be finding the best spot I can to watch Virg.

For anyone going to the gig at King King tonight, the brilliant Dennis Hamm will be joining the guys on stage.
Here's what they sound like together:

I'm going! It's gonna be siiiiiiiiiiick.

[Kurtis]

I'm going also. Should be good times.

[Morgenthaler]

Holy moly...

I just listened back (to back to back, 3 times) to the most recent rendition of the gift that keeps on giving,
Alien Hip Hop - in the hands of Nili Brosh and Virg, on her recent album, A Matter Of Perception.

It is an absolutely blistering version. Wow. If you liked the original, I bet you're gonna like this one too.

They played to a packed house. A big portion of the crowd were not students at the school where this was held. Great show!

Nice, Clint! There's usually such a limited audience for stuff like this. Great to hear of a packed house. Yeah!

Oh my! Sometimes it really takes a lot to move some of us HODers to respond!!

That was really nice!! + a really really cool interpretation of Holdsworth's "Material Real" !!

[Clint Hopkins]

Jeppe, the Nashville show had a great turn out as well! They played 'Material Real' and 'Panic Station' which was a real treat. It was a small club but had a cool vibe. Just a few blocks from Fork's Drum Closet. There were even women in the crowd!
