Always enjoy the programs put together by these fine folks.

See ya "out there" ;)

 

Which of these fine programs will you be checking out, RRG?

The Nina Rota tribute looks cool.

Any show at the 7:30 start times seem to be winners -

Nick Lowe & Los Straitjackets played as the sun was setting & into the night last year. I guess that was the highlight from 2017.

Seeing that act in Westhampton this weekend.

Bump for Latex whoever that is

Happy Summer to all, Hudson Valley residents included!

Did you ever see Sun Ra, Rr6?

Vandelay Industries.

Are you guys aware of this album?

I'm not kidding when I tell you it is one of the most interesting Sun Ra related albums ever.

I had it when I was a kid - still have the vinyl actually - and I had no clue when I was a kid why the Batman theme on this album didn't sound exactly like it did on the TV show.

Years later I learned the story:

Not Lincoln Center,  but I went to this Sun Ra / Sonic Youth show in Central Park a few Summers ago...

Sixer, did you say you wanted to meet up and go to the Radiohead concert together? 

Im there on the Saturday show. How about you?

Yes, I think we have Saturday tickets. I'll ask my friends and report back.

Peter wolf is a possibilty...lot of good shows on that list

Oh word? My seats are really close to the stage. How about yours?

We're in for Saturday - but our seats are not really close to the stage. Enjoy that, although I'm sure the show will be great from anywhere in the arena.
