Is he finally doing Saucy Jack? I can't listen to him except when Omar is playing or with The Police, I like what Vinnie plays but the tunes dont't move me. Omar kicked the crap out that band. Got to see the Bring on the Night band mid- '80s w/ Omar and all those guys. Kenny Kirkland, Branford, was...

Nice job, nice performance! Thanks for sharing. I'll have to give that a try.

Saw this elsewhere. Bad and surprising news. I got to see Mulgrew a bunch of times with the Tony Williams quintet in the late '80s - early '90s. Spoke to him briefly at their last performance at the old Yoshi's. RIP, Mulgrew.

Me too and plus one! Amazing player. I think I saw him with Zawinul three times, twice with Nat Townsley and once with Rodge.

Saw a version of the Gadd Gang with Joey DeFrancesco, Ronnie Cuber, and a guitarist who escapes me at Yoshi's SF a couple of years ago. Great show. Gadd has become the Buddha of the Groove, playing in the cracks and making it all work. I saw this further in - interested to hear the new album: STEVE ...

There was a heavy KC thing. The Streets of San Francisco theme, that also had some west coast jazz thing going on. It took some balls to put a lineup like that together and tour. Steven should be commended For his business skills. Heavy KC thing: Yes! Grace is a lot of Crimson circa '71 with some S...

I think Steven Wilson is doing some of the most interesting stuff around, no matter whether it's in Porcupine Tree or his solo project(s). I appreciate both. I've seen the SW band on both tours and they were tremendous, amazing both times. I think I prefer Grace for Drowning to the Raven overall, mo...

Kurits, were you at the Fillmore show or another stop on the tour?

I saw Steven Wilson at the Fillmore in S.F. last night. Great show and i was surprised to find that Marco Minneman was in the drum chair, not Chad Wackerman. Apparently, Marco found a sub for his other gigs, maybe it was Chad. Anyway, the band was in fine form. They played all of the Raven and parts...

Sorry to have been out of the loop for this thread. Nathaniel Townsley is a wonderful player. I've only seen him twice, both times with the Zawinul Syndicate. Power, groove, taste, chops; everything you want. He's a minister in New York (as Zawinul said, "the son and grandson of a minister"...
