Busy-ness

It was a busy musical weekend, what with 2 jazz gigs and a Beethoven 7 rehearsal and later a concert and a committee meeting.  No pics for the two gigs, but a big thanks to Hugh who sat in on drums for one and who was playing the second when I was sitting in.  My sit-in was with Simon Halabi at Blue Eyes, that intimate cocktail bar.  Simon sings, too, so not just the standards as instrumentals but also a few borderline jazz songs, like Peggy Lee's take on Fever.  Nice and well received.  Not an easy lug and only more demanding given ongoing works in Garema Place (more ongoing works...) and rain and a very confusing parking station.  But two gigs much enjoyed.  But no pics on either night...

Tilt Alt played Dickson Taphouse on Friday night with James Woodman (piano), Eric Pozza (bass) and Hugh Magri-Bull (drums).  Simon Halabi (piano, vocals) played Blue Eyes on Saturday night with Eric Pozza (bass) and Hugh Magri-Bull (drums).
