suck it you pampered rockstars and fans – we’ve got six new inches of packed snow, ice and sleet and windchills below zero

January 8, 2009

As Wednesday segued into Thursday, most of the ship’s musicians made their way into the Jam Room for an extended night of improvisation. The festivities hit their stride early on with a trio comprised of Marco Benevento, Dave Dreiwitz and Stanton Moore and later morphed into a Bay Area-based combo featuring Brian Jordan (Tiny Universe) and Jackie Greene, as well as ALO’s Zach Gill, Steve Adams and Dave Brogan. Things then unfolded into an open jam session that found both groups of musicians weaving on and off the stage along with Bluhm, Josh Clark (Tea Leaf Green), Jamie Shields (New Deal) and the Nocturnals. The night’s festivities finally wrapped up around 7 AM with a assortment of musicians onstage exploring the space between New Orleans and New York funk.

I prefer to think of the severe shock they will suffer when they come back to all this mess.

I got bumped out before — hope this works.

We had record snowfall for December in our county, but you wouldn’t have known because it keeps raining in between and melting it. Glad the band is having fun in the sun, though.
