There is a chapman stick show that Greg is playing at tonight, It's not too often he makes it out to CA so I'm excited to be getting to see him for the first time live.

Yup, Greg is Quite the musician. It was awesome. It was a "Stick Night" so two other Stickists were playing the venue including Emmet Chapman (I'm pretty sure he was the originator of the instrument). Greg Played a few of his songs (including Blues for Ayaman, which is one of my favs) and a few covers, including songs from Charles Mingus, Bob Dylan (Watchtower) and The Beatles. It really is amazing to watch him play, his talent is right up there with TR when you see his hands moving soooo fast, and his eyes are closed the whole time. I have some pics, but I want to finish posting the TR pics before I get around to these.

VWF: I picked up that CD that night as well. It was just recently remastered about two months ago and it really sounds great. I'm actually listening to it with headphones right now.

Oh and I think you'll be glad to hear that I think a few copies of the Sticks and Stones albums with TR were sold that night.

I went and saw Greg today. Got all but the last song(Goodbye Porkpie Hat) on tape. It was, needless to say, an awesome performance.

Speaking of Greg, did anyone hear about how he's not playing at Miller's for a long time? I was really disappointed to hear this because I went to a lot of the Monday night shows. Luckily, C'ville isn't that far :). It's pretty amazing being able to see someone like Greg Howard in such an extremely small place and only for a couple of bucks.

Yeah I was at that last show at Miller's. Best $3 I ever spent. It was such a shame that hardly anyone was paying any attention to him though. There were a bunch of loud drunks that night too.

You know I was actually talking to Tim about Michael and Greg quitting Millers, and he told me that Millers just went under new management, and they have been going downhill. Perhaps that is the reason. Well, too bad it wasnt a great crowd, but I'm sure Greg was still amazing.

Oh, of course he was! He really is an incredible musician, not to mention a cool guy.

Yeah, I can't believe I was lucky enough to catch Greg's last show there. I didn't even think about that e-mail Fluffy sent out so I didn't know it was the last one until I got there. I really wish I could have seen Mike Sokolowski at some point though.
