Unless their schedule changes before then, Jason Ricci & New  Blood will be 
playing their usual gig in NYC at Terra Blues on 9/13...so you may  or may not 
want to pick that date...they usually begin fairly late..at 9:30 or  10p.m.  
Terra Blues is at 149 Bleecker Street...right down the block.
 
Might be a good way for folks to combine events....make it even more  
worthwhile to make the trip in to the City.

Hey all, I've been asked to play another gig in   NYC at number 9 Bleeker St. 
I did it around the first of May without much  notice  before hand and had a 
blast. I can pretty much set my own date  on when I want to  do this within 
about 
a month, quicker if I can pull  it off. I'm asking here on  the list if 
anybody in the area would like  to come along and jam. I could sure  use 
somebody 
that can play guitar  'cause last time I didn't get to play much  harp and 
frankly 
I aint  much of a guitar player. I can play, but it's just not  my ax of  
choice. I play guitar on my originals to set the pace, but I'd like to   have 
somebody along so that I can put in the harp leads that I have for my  own  
stuff. Of 
course harp players, bass players, percussionist,  keyboards are all  welcome 
too. It's a small place with good acoustics  and the volume level has to  be 
pretty moderate. There is a small PA  with 8 channels (I think) but no 
effects  
and maybe 4 mics. I used a  little bitty Crate amp last time and it was fine  
until the loud drunk  guitar player showed up. It'll be my originals that are 
 
mostly blues  oriented with funk thrown in and a few rock tunes and all of 
the  
blues  standards that we can think of. Your originals too. For that matter we 
 
can  play any kind of style we want, I get to call the shots on that.  I'll 
back 
up  anybody that shows up. Paulie are you listening???? This  could be a lot 
of 
fun  if done right. Get back in touch with me if  anybody is interested and 
we 
can  work out the details. No money (yet)  but this could work out to be a 
semi  regular thing and if we can  consistently pack the joint.........well 
you 
know  the drill. I'm gonna  try and record some of it on my Zoom 10 track. We 
can 
get  together the  afternoon of the jam and work out lead in and such.

This a feeler to see what we have to work  with. I can and will do it  
by myself, but it would be a lot of ballads and  it would bore the hell  out 
of 
me after a while. I'd much rather work as a  team with people.  I'm a singer 
but I'll sing harmony or just stay out of the way  for any  and all other 
singers. I just wants to have fun and get my stuff  out  there. The dude that 
owns 
this place is a very good friend of mine and   treats his guests well.

Anybody up fer it?? More  detail later, I  just was asked last night.
