Claire! yes, let's do some music. I made a friend who play bass saxaphone, we should start a low reeds long tone ensemble. I'll be "in town" on thursday, Mothguts is playing at Otto's Shrunken head on 14th between 1st ave and A on thursday at 8pm. It's free, so if you're not busy swing on by.
We'll actually be flying out of N.Y.C to Hawaii...so, in essence we'll be there for a couple of days around June 29th and again around July 14th and will most likely secure lodging in Manhattan.
