Janey, I've been told to let everyone know when I've got gigs now, so you'll all be subject to my gig reminders from now on. I'll make doubly sure to let you know of any good ones with my big-band. I'll be away for most of the summer, so it might be awhile.
I was hoping to meet you, so it's too bad you couldn't make it, but since this meeting left such a good taste in our mouths (mmmmm.... St. Ambroise Oatmeal Stout), I'm sure there'll be another meet-up before the year is out.
In case anyone is interested/available, I'm playing at the
Rex Hotel and Jazz Bar (194 Queen St. W, at University; Osgoode subway) this Saturday the 21st at 7:00p.m. with the trio I'll be in Hong Kong with. That's
Holly Clark on vocals and Mark Cashion on Bass. I know most of you at the meet-up couldn't make it, but it's my duty as a shameless self promoter to tell you all anyway.
It's not a big-band (sorry Janey), but I expect it'll be really fun.
