Dude, I said "three syllables or less", not "pretend you grew up in Taylorsville". I live in the UPSCALE part of Louisville, you dig?*

TWO BEERS - Don't worry about FOGHORN.. he's just kinda like the forum's pet mastiff. But beneath all that bark, he's all soft gums and slobber. He's listened to a lot of my stuff and written tomes about it for my benefit. Next time he drools on you, just wipe it off and scratch him behind his ears...he loves that.

Uh, Jon? What were your verbal SAT scores, anyway? Based on what I'm seeing here, I'm guessing they were somewhere in the upper double digits...which puts you in the 90th percentile of Kentuckians, of course. But at least here, you can look strangers in the eye without worrying about getting stabbed, so I guess it's a tradeoff.

PULL - aw, man, just goofin. I just went back and looked at your famous "nostril shot", and actually couldn't see any fur at all. Funny how these urban legends get started..


Back to Coolman - he's one of those "team player" bass players that I like to listen to so much. You don't notice them sticking out, but take them away, and nothing works. What kinda bass was he playing? Back when he did the camps, he had a lionhead scroll on the bass he brought.

I know what you were talkin' about...obviously, i'm trying to forget that. My nostril holes looked pretty damn clean to me, if I remember right.

Not to change the subject, but...

Todd's album "Tomorrows" is also good. It's trio with Renee Rosnes & Lewis Nash. He plays some cello on this one and some bowed solos... very cool.
