May 2008

I’ve got some SF Bay area shows and a short West Coast tour with two extremely talented NYC based players, Rob Price and David Grollman. Every time we’ve performed our brand of NY improv/noise it has really clicked.

Do come to a show – there are none planned beyond this, although some will pop up, I’m sure.

Sat May 10 – 2.30-5.30pm (FREE)
Lanesplitter Pub Anniversary Party
San Pablo & University, Berkeley, CA
I’m playing guitar in Joe Rut’s band and then with Val Esway & el Mirage.

Mon May 12 – 8.30p
Ivy Room
San Pablo @ Solano, Albany, CA
Strangelet (Suki O’Kane, Jonathan Segel and I) will make experimental noise with a groove (or not). This oughta be interesting considering the decor and vibe of the new ‘Kingman’s Ivy Room.’ I suggest you all come to see if we get kicked out.

Fri May 16 – 8pm
Totally Intense Fractal Mindgaze Hut
671 24th St, Oakland, CA
The Cinepimps (Keith Arnold, Al Alvarez, Suki O’Kane, et al) will unleash a barrage of film and music.
