Hey Jim have a great time in the Big apple.
Everything all the time!
I am sure somebody is picking,
but if you hear nothing in time,
Irideum and Village Vanguard always have great shows.
And of course the Blue Note. |

I'm playing tonight at The Living Room with Max Greene .
We go on at 8:00 upstairs. The legendary Tony Mason is playing drums along with the force of nature Tim Luntzel on bass. I will get to do plenty of playing on this one.

Jim,
I'm playing a western swing gig tonight in Brooklyn at the best bar in the universe: Sunny's over in Red Hook. It is a truly great scene.
Get in touch.
Btw: Manhattan is turning into a playground for rich tourists and trustafarians. Skip that BS and check out the real deal in Brooklyn !

Trustafarians!!!  Did you make that one up? Hilarious!
(seeing as how I'm on a computer, I now feel compelled to add a "LOL" here.) |

| So is Jim Cohen a rich tourist, or is he a trustafarian? |

Don't worry guys, my mysanthropy is not bound by bridges and tunnels !
Brooklyn will suck soon also. The pilates wives of Park Slope with there hum-vee strollers are making there way down the hill into my neighborhood at a frightening pace. Its horrible. They are closing in and there is nothing that can stop them. There is already a yoga for kids store front as far west as Court st and as far south as Atlantic.
They send out those trendy anorexic guys with $200 goofy looking hairdos as spys. I saw 5 of those fellas at my beloved local bar just last week. They seem harmless enough until they try to pay for there PBRs with a credit card !

| I went to Manhattan on business about a year ago and had a great time. Saw Les Paul at the Iridium and took a few cab rides ... now that was bad! |

Ah...Gentrification. New reports from the city that made it an art form!
We're comparatively lucky, but the silicon and big-box legions are still displacing hippies and/or musicians here in Austin. If we could just get the yoga moms to 2-step instead of downward-dog, we'd be in business... |

Update ! There is now a yoga for kids place as far west as Columbia st.
Just today there was a major incursion of pilates wives from cobble hill in the little park on the water where I take my dog to play. They where checking out the park with a bunch of very well dressed 4 year old petchulant screaming monsters and a hired soccer coach. They kept repeating the statement "you are so lucky to live in such a nice place". I wish I was kidding !
We are all doomed....
BTW: Jim, What gigs did you check out ?

One thing you can count on in NYC is change.
Good, bad, indifferent, but change.
The other thing is all the food in all the styles,
including styles you never imagined.
And Music of every kind, and every level,
often the highest levels. |

Thanks for a very active, interesting thread. Unfortunately, as it turned out, I wasn't able to hit any of these (or other) gigs as my day-job ended up running later than expected both nights and I was too wiped to head to any of these locales. Oh well, maybe next time. But thanks for letting me know the options.

A few table spoons of Phillips O Magnesia would have helped? |
