Groundhogs, warm sun, it's all very seductive. Drought, war, peace, government, gas - very scary. There, that covers it right? Fortunately we have lots to discuss on the musical front. Ah, I feel better already!
The reality of Lionel Young Band winning the IBC is just beginning to sink in. Plans for summer are starting to unfold, website is up (www.lionelyoung.net) though still a work in progress (sim, é eu!) and the game is on to see how I can juggle all the musical projects I love so dearly! Added to the mix - I have just been informed I am to be inducted! Into Missoula, MT Jazz Hall of Fame, that is, meaning I will likely be taking a quick trip up there in late April. Suddenly I need room on the wall for plaques... who'd 'a' thunk it? Meanwhile, there is musical fun to be had:
THUR March 3, Pearl St Mall, Bldr (B'way to the Laughing Goat)
7:30pm Bateria Alegria samba parade (yes, right now - and Ginga plays at the Goat after)
SAT March 5, Mercury Cafe (22nd&Calif, Den)
8pm Bateria Alegria & Ginga for Brazilian Carnaval Show (wi free samba lesson)
MON March 7, Oriental Theater (44th&Tennison, Den)

TUE March 8, Pumphouse Brewery (540 Main, Lngmt)
