I have a large slow growing tumor in my shoulder that may or may not take away my ability to use my right hand. I suppose that this will affect my musicianship so I'm currently playing as much as I possibly can. Or at least that's my excuse for making music my career right now.
"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)
"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff
While setting up the tent yesterday I was playing Jill Brazil and it made the circus so happy! Folks kept coming up to me. "Who is this?" They ask. "Is this the same band you were playing fifteen minutes ago?" Hope life is good.
Thanks for the box of chicken parts. I don't know what I'm supposed to do with them, though. Any . . . . . . . . . . .. . . . . . .....(eyes shift to vaseline).... . . . . . . . ideas?
News Flash: I’m coming into town this weekend for a series of Dream Science Circus performances!
I highly recommend coming Saturday night (October 11th). The marching band I have danced with in Seattle will be making a guest appearance at the 7pm show. Orkestar Zirkonium is a Balkan style marching band that will instantly give you holes in your shoes…hmmm you say you like your shoes whole? Well, OZ is worth it…
