I'm packing up the family, and moving back to New York!!! I'll be leaving Atlanta in June. I'll be in Brooklyn at first, but I'll settle in Long Island. I'm gonna miss this place, but hey New York's my heart! Can't wait to hit the club scene. I've been offered a couple of gigs, so I'll see how it goes.
now THAT will make an interesting clinic! If you trek the family "down the shore" to Jersey... the beers are on me
Where on Long Island will you be settling down? Brooklyn's about as far away from Manhattan as I wanna be right now. What else, um, Tribeca Rock Club is shutting down, unfortunately. Tonic was in the same spot earlier this year but was able to pull through with funding from benefit shows. I didn't know if you were keeping up with the venue situation or not.... Saturday night I played at the Pussycat Lounge for the first time. Weird place. Not-very-hot girls dancing topless behind the bar downstairs and tons of hairy headbangers upstairs in the venue. I was playing in a band that touches on cabaret, disco, funk, jazz and other stuff so we totally didn't fit in with the heavy metal bands and crowd. Fun gig, though. A drunken friend of one of the bands yelled that we sucked but we couldn't hear it from onstage.
Excellent news, Woody. Hopefully we can hook up at some point. Sorry I missed your El Plus show in New York the other week. Mike
