Davo-London Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Ran out of subject space! Doh! Suggestion for the next LOBSTER outing: 19-21 March: Joe Zawinul and the Zawinul Syndicate Venue: Jazz Cafe £25 Sorry, I know this is Phil's job description but I'm just making a suggestion.

Phil W Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 You're not overstepping the bounds there, Davo - don't worry! :grin: I'm up for that but I'll have to check with my entertainment secretary/parole officer (missus). Knowing Joe it would be a top class bassplayer involved too, has he ever worked with a shabby bassplayer? Might invite my drummer along too, if Lowdown London Area Social Committee don't object! Cheers! I'm trying to think of somewhere to eat nearby - it's not far from my place but we hardly ever heat in Camden. There's always Gilgamesh! review but that's a bit pricy (though beautiful - I've only been there for tea). I'll think of somewhere else nearby. Anyone with time should also visit the Bass Gallery http://www.thebassgallery.com/ around the corner - the home of Sei basses http://www.seibass.com/ and a shop with a mouthwatering bass selection. http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo-London Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 Lineup: Joe Zawinul keyboard /vocals Sabine Kabongo - vocal Linley Marthe - bass Jorge Bezerra - percussions Alegre Correa -guitar Paco Sery - drums Aziz Sahmaoui percussions /vocals Apparently Linley is a monster. Must see. Davo "We will make you bob your head whether you want to or not". - David Sisk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Linley is one of my all-time favourites. He is a monster. Check out some of his stuff on youtube (I posted some links on the youtube thread). I've seen Sabine before with Zap Mama. Paco is simply one of the all-time greats - my drummer friend, Pierre will definitely want to be there. And Joe! http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davo-London Posted February 6, 2007 Author Share Posted February 6, 2007 I've just e-mailed Joe and Linley through Zawinul's website to see if we can meet them after the gig.

Lenny B Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 There're a couple of nice sushi restaurants within 100m of the Jazz Cafe - i'll check the names next time i pass. I'll be unlikely to attend this time (again) unfortunately (again). The bass player's job is to make the drummer sound good - Jack Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 There's Julian Clary's favourite Sushi restaaurant near Regents Paerk which is an older, established one (nice and dingy as the best Japanese places usually are) and a newer one virtually next door which is OK but not so interesting. Just depends on how many sushi fanciers we have. I adore it. http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimR Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Never had sushi, but then I've never had Korean before the last meet. Jazz Cafe is an excellent venue, you can eat there as well, not sure of the quality or cost. You can get a table up on the balcony and see down onto the stage. Just a thought. Feel the groove internally within your own creativity. - fingertalkin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yeah, I've never actually eaten at the JC. I guess you could always order some cooked Japanese food anyway, Tim; but it would be good for you to try it. Wednesday 21st is out for me (or at least v.difficult). Linley solo!

Davo-London Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 OK I've bought tickets for myself and Phil on Tuesday 20 March. Anyone else want to come?

DavidMPires Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Apologies davo just saw the price on the first post. I might go, but if so won't be able to do dinner. $$$ is lacking on my pockets lately. I will let you know as soon as possible. There's any place online where we can buy the tickets? www.myspace.com/davidbassportugal "And then the magical unicorn will come prancing down the rainbow and we'll all join hands for a rousing chorus of Kumbaya." - by davio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo-London Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 It's actually £29 to stand! Sitting in the restaurant is more like £50/head.

Davo-London Posted March 21, 2007 Author Share Posted March 21, 2007 Now that's a fun gig - saw him a couple of years ago at the Jazz Cafe - great Hammond. Davo "We will make you bob your head whether you want to or not". - David Sisk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 I'm a bit on the skint side. If a get a few gigs before then I'll come along to both - especially to see Mr Clarke. http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil W Posted March 23, 2007 Share Posted March 23, 2007 As suggested by Davo, is anoyone up for a jam. We could book a rehearsal room. Bring our gear. Invite a drummer. Have a play. Week after Easter anyone? http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davo-London Posted March 23, 2007 Author Share Posted March 23, 2007 Oh yeah. Sweet Willie is the expert. I'm sure he'll give tips. Book a room all day. Hot and cold running Pizza and beer. I know a drummer besides myself who might join in. We could have a competition to the most ridiculous and unuseable bassline. Count me in.

Phil W Posted March 24, 2007 Share Posted March 24, 2007 I would love to join in, but will be felling a bit strange playing with the big boys I hope big boys is not a polite euphemism for 'old-boys'. Tim, my looping chops are coming together quite nicely actually. With so many bassists (hopefully) I doubt we'll need loops. I can always invite my drumfriend Pierre, but as he'll need a taxi, Davo's friend might be a better option - or both?! Any day between 10th and 13th is good for me, although we're planning to go to Windsor (for the castle) overnight at some point. http://philwbass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
