last minute
April 18, 2008 on 8:19 am | In Happenings | No CommentsSo but try and stop by “Dorkfest” this Saturday at Broad St Cafe in Durham if you’re of a mind to.
Dexter Romweber & the New Romans and Calabi Yau (Charlotte) and the Late Viriginia Summers (Lynchburg) and a bunch of other bands that I can’t remember right now.
We’re playing around midnight.

And on the 29th of April I’ll be playing a little set at the Rat Bastard International Noise Fest at Nightlight. Should be a pip.

funny how secrets travel
April 11, 2008 on 8:37 am | In Happenings | No CommentsA little remind about things to come.
And, as always, if you want to be removed from this list, just drop me a line saying “Stop pestering me, you barley-totin’ scudhopper.”
Project Bluebird CD Release
Marsh Woodwinds, 707 N Person St. Raleigh
8 pm — 5 bucks gets you entry + a CD (’cause let’s face it, music ain’t worth shit.)
I’ll quote a promo e-mail Brent Bagwell sent out about our show in Charlotte tonight, ’cause he says it better than I could:
“As a refresher, Project BLUEBIRD is the Charlotte-Triangle collaboration featuring:
Carrie Shull – oboe, english horn
Bob Pence – alto and baritone saxophones, bass clarinet
Brent Bagwell – tenor and baritone saxophones, clarinet
Ben Kennedy – violin, cello
Ron Brendle – bass
In a delightfully subversive move from the Fourth Estate, we find/found ourselves as Creative Loafing’s Best New Band of 2007: “Project Bluebird’s shows are a study in deconstruction – the finished “product” a free-floating (there’s no drummer to act as anchor) vibe that’s variously exultant, or gloriously exhausted, but never exhausting. Queen City folk rarely consider that a jazz band could be the most indie thing we have going, but guess what?”
So, $5 gets you a CD and 2 sets of fresh music….a good deal, I say.”
More shows to come.

Friday & Saturday (Charlotte and Raleigh), April 11 & 12: CD release for Project Bluebird.
$5 gets you entry and a CD.
Friday at Century in Charlotte, 8 pm.
Saturday at Marsh Woodwinds (707 Person St) in Raleigh, 8 pm.
A joint coalition of Charlotte, Raleigh, and Durham folks.
“Avant garde chamber jazz” is how they describe us in the World Book Encyclopaedia.
Sorta composed improvisation, with occasional lack of composure. I think you’ll dig it.
And be sure and keep your ears peeled for Dexter & The New Romans at Dorkfest in Durham April 19th. Broad St Cafe.
