Jammin' Java - DC

Best place I've played in the DC area!
Owned and operated by three brothers from Montclair, NJ (my town).
The staff are great. Whole scene is a good vibe.

Peace,

Roanoke!


Had a blast playing the Kirk Avenue Music Hall. Also the clinic at The Music Lab. These guys really have a good thing going on!

Also Wayne Jones, the guy who makes Headstrong Amps (I use one of his "Lil King" models) came up from Asheville. We had a great hang all around!

Peace,

Wilbur Hall

Check this guy out. He was the Trombone player in the Whiteman band. Vaudeville!!!
Apparently my paternal grandfather was in that world as well.

Ernie Isley in the house!


Did a clinic at Fazio's in St Louis and Ernie Isley came. What an honor. I asked him what he was working on. He then gave a virtuosic 'sing-thru' of his latest project. You had a pretty vivid idea of what the recorded tracks sound like.

Back from Japan




Hey folks. Sorry for the delay...too much to do. A good thing.
We just finished a run at the Cotton Club in Tokyo. Great club, staff, audience!
Check this guys crazy, Land of the Giants camera...

The other pic is of Tony and Erik in the fish market in Tokyo with their new friend.

If you can come out to our 2-19 gig at Sullivan hall, do. It'll be the last one for the trio.It's been a wonderful run but the time has come for me to change things up.


Peace,

CH
