By-Tor,
Saw the show here in town as well. Regi is by all means intense. I think there are some people that are so very good, in a mad scientist sorta way....they've got so much going on in their head that sometimes the translation gets lost. He definately has his own mojo goin' on....not sure that it translates well in the funk context (IMHO). To much non-melodic content......unless you are on serious drugs....then it probably sounds like Beethoven's 5th...ha ha ha....

All in all....good strong show. Derico the drummer kills......and Joseph......well.....unreal... perfect backdrop for Vic....

Your not going to the LA show BassSaxMan?

Hey man...I was going to go but they ended up adding a local show and I am so busy that it is much better for me to go to it down here. I know I know, I said I would find you at the show after we missed each other at the Mike Stern deal but...I just got so much stuff to do. There will be a next time! :D
 
When are you performing it? What is it gonna be? I remember my senior project...I did a thing for a full orchestra. 7 minutes long and I have the full conductor's score. It was ok. Not bad for being my first try at 17.

Anyway what are you gonna do and where and when? :)
 
and i will be partaking in it! i will be doing so with a broken wrist, but then again nothing will stop me from doing this gig. i get a cast on tomorrow morn. i just keep thinking...who gets to open up for their idol at 21? i'm going to see them in 3.5 hours for sound check and all that...enjoy.
 
i never ever said i was playing on the 24th!! where did you get that from?! your tone seems like a little bit of jealousy is flowing through those veins. go to the coach house's website...www.thecoachhouse.com..look at the bill.. my group 'the finish line' is opening for vic and the gang. therefore i am not fibbing. there is concrete evidence. so stop doubting and honor the fact that a fellow TB'er is doing something great. i'm sure others support your endeavours. reciprocity brother....
