NO JOKE!!

Boy, the pace has suddenly picked up around here....
First, my trip to Seattle was an awesome escape. I got to see The Bad Plus many times. One of Branford M.'s albums was titled Crazy People Music. I dig the terminology, and I place this band in that category in my mind. Not that only crazy people would listen to it, but that you have to be nuts to be able to create/play it. These folks are beyond my limited skills of comprehension. If you get the chance, go. Unless you dislike fantastic music.
Cinematic Titanic was a total hoot. Didn't get my DVD signed, but did get a smile of acknowledgement from Trace. Good enough. If you get the chance, go. Unless it's too expensive....a billion dollars would be a little much.
They Won't Stay Dead!! put on another great show at Cloud 9, from whence the above photo comes (thanks, Dan). We'll be doing that again sometime in May, this time on a weekend.
Shows, shows, shows. Both Senior Supermonster and They Won't Stay Dead are playing Bombs Away Cafe on April 18th. Sr. SM is hitting Eugene at Luckey's on the 23rd. Both bands again are playing May Day, Sr.SM's 3rd year doing so. I'll have a formal announcement soon on the website.
April is suddenly a big, crazy month!
