Dave Bryce Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 Calling all Philly/NJ/NYC/Baltimore etc. forum dwellers: So, it turns out that I am going to be in the lovely city of Philadelphia from September 4-8. Would any of you in the area like to try and put some sort of a group thing together? Could be fun... ;) :D :thu: dB ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Professional Affiliations: Royer Labs • Music Player Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curve Dominant Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 Yo, if yous want I'll book us a table at Zanzibar Blue for that night. Lemme take a walk over there and find out who's playing that night. Good call for Thursday, Dave. Downtown gets a kinda saturated on the weekends, if you know what I mean.

The Bear Jew Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 Yeah... we got longhaired galoots here. Not many, but a few. There are more Iggles and Doods though. \m/ Erik "To fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence; supreme excellence consists of breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting." --Sun Tzu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curve Dominant Posted August 19, 2002 Share Posted August 19, 2002 Good news: Plan B with Brenda Smith performs at ZB on Thursday nights in September. Brenda is easily one of Philly's best jazz singers...kinda leans towards R&B a little too. Real soulful, authentic bluesy jazz vocalist (as opposed to the Diana Krall variety). The dealio on Zanzibar Blue: a jazz club/restaurant in The Belleview Hotel at Broad & Walnut Streets, two blocks south of City Hall. Classy but not stuffy, good food on an international cuisine tip, not cheap but not exhorbitant either. Cool place, something of a local legend. Everybody good with that?

videoeditor1 Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Hey Curve, Off Topic for a sec... (And all the rest of you Philly dudes...) I was over on Ben Franklin Pkwy yesterday, getting sunburnt :eek: . There was a very, very good five piece band (drum, bass, rhodes, sax, 'pet) working with three vocals (two girls, one guy)...whose name elude me. I hear they're local. Keith Sweat and Dave Hollister just made my ears hurt. Holler back at us and let us know how it goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Bryce Posted August 20, 2002 Author Share Posted August 20, 2002 Dang - that sure got organized fast. Man, I miss the way things get done in Philly... ;) So, then: 9/5/02 Zanzibar Blue Time - TBD (Early start? Leisurely meal? 6PM drinks, 7PM dinner, maybe? Curve, when does the band start playing?)

Leisurely meal? 6PM drinks, 7PM dinner, maybe? Curve, when does the band start playing?)[/b][/quote]Usually the live music kicks off at 9pm at ZB (I'll double check that tomorrow). So let's make it early, say 7pm call-time. That way we'll have time to talk shop over eats and drinks, and then hang for the first set. Then if anyone's up for some serious bar-crawling, Bar Noir is a good candidate, as is Alma De Cuba, both within walking distance of ZB. Chris' Jazz Cafe is right around the corner. There are literally dozens of cool spots we can go hang at within walking distance of ZB. It's downtown Philly, nome sayn? As the date approaches, I'll get the after-hours lowdown on downtown happenings. [quote][b]Dang - that sure got organized fast. Man, I miss the way things get done in Philly...[/b][/quote]Yo, in one day and less than one page of thread, we got the date, time and venue nailed down. That has to be a record for a MP gathering.

WFTurner Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 I'm tempted to make the jaunt across state to meet some of you fella's. I've been fighting to hang on to a foot all year and don't travel well. The 5-6 hour drive would leave me bad company I fear and I'd probably have to get so jacked up on pain killers after I made the drive I'd be the one sleeping face down in his plate of dinner. ;) Maybe next time.

Curve Dominant Posted August 21, 2002 Share Posted August 21, 2002 An update... The first live set at ZB starts at 8pm. So let's make it a 6pm call-time at the bar, with a 7pm dinner table reservation. That should give us all enough time to talk shop (and chow) before the set starts. Everyone cool with that? I'll make a tentative reservation for 8 people, but let's see a show of hands anyway. Chime in y'all... PS: DB, do we want to cross-post this on GM's forum? If so, I'll let you do the honors.
