Hi, wanted to letcha know about the remaining shows at this years's Earshot Jazz Fest here in SEATTLE. Some of these (i.e. - Marc Ribot, Bill Frisell, and Fred Frith) will be of obvious interest, but others won't, of course....whatever the case, dig into the info, and check out some new music/etc. ~ S.M. ~ p.s. - Seattle is nice and cold/rainy, come visit us on a whim! ;-) Wednesday November 5 MICHAEL HENDERSON'S CHILDREN ON THE CORNER (Skerik's Syncopated Taint Septet opens!)
