Fire up! East coast tour coming up!
August 10, 2010
It’s almost time for me to head east to Provincetown for a little East Coast action.
I’m really excited to be there for Bart Wiseman’s Provincetown Jazz Festival August 13-14th. Paul Sanchez is performing on Saturday night. He’s from New Orleans and the brother of John Sanchez who taught me in Star of Indiana back in 1985. The festival will be raising some money to help out some of the musicians in New Orleans, so come on out and support a good cause and catch some good music.
Speaking of Star of Indiana – an alumni corps will be performing at DCI Semi’s Friday night in Indianapolis. Obviously, I’m not going to be there. I decided a year and a half ago that it was time to move on from drum corps and specifically my Star of Indiana experience. And I have. While part of me wishes I could at least be there to see the performance and some old friends, the other part is glad that I didn’t decide to take on a project that would involve playing the same music for a year and a half on an instrument that I don’t usually perform on.
Instead I have focused on trombone and you can hear the fruits of my labor this next week in Provincetown if you are in the area!!!
Sunday August 15th – Jazz Festival Jam Session at the Island Merchant, 4-7pm in Hyannis MA
Sunday August 15th – Duck Creeke Tavern with Zoe Lewis and her band 9pm 70 Main Street Wellfleet MA
Monday August 16th – Arthouse with Zoe Lewis, on Commercial Street in Provincetown MA 7pm
Monday August 16th – Bubala’s with John Demaci, on Commercial Street in Provincetown, heading over after Zoe’s show.
And possibly to wrap things up I might be sitting in with Zoe one last time on her Viking Princess Jazz Cruise – $26, leaves from MacMillan Pier at 7pm. Reservations required through 508-487 7323.
