Soaking wet, but riding high. King Gizzard totally worth the pouring rain. First of four a raging success. Somehow managed to get two hours in and... fucking killed it. As if there was any doubt.

Caught my third of three Frisell August show at the Vanguard tonight, this with the "Four" quartet a bass-free guitar/piano/sax/drums thing. The pace was largely slow and dreamy with lots of space for the players to move around in. The opening stretch was a masterclass in 4-way improv. Rest was decent.
Frisell at the VV in August is one of my favorite NYC livemusic annual traditions.

After a couple weeks away from my dear NYC livemusic universe, I have been back with a vengeance the past week. Highlights include, but not limited to: serious jazz fire including Frisell twice at the Vanguard, Mehldau Quartet at Jazzcultural, and Marta Sanchez at Close Up. Frisell trio last night was especially expansive, as good as I've seen him in a while. Also Freaks Day Out Sunday was a glorious triplet of duos including a gnarly hour of ambient guitar-cello improv from Marlo and Lucas from Melt. Late set last night at Baby's All Right from Ista, perhaps my favorite new NYC rock band at the moment. Big high-energy psychedelic soulrock sound, somewhat reminiscent of the Family Stone with guitars and horn and even the occasional theramin! A band to watch for sure!

Been doing these FDO's since the pandemic, probably 25+ of em at this point. I think today's was maybe the best, musically, of all of them. Three bands doing a set of high-level pure improvisation. Three very different styles, but they all sort of fit together. Rain stopped, skies cleared, lovely breeze. The livemusicgods smiled down on Red Hook today.
Next Freaks Day Out is 8/9.

Last night I got to see Julian Lage in very close proximity at the Stone, accompanying the legendary Greg Cohen on bass. Special stuff.
There really is no place like the Stone. A perfect music venue in almost every way.

Last night I caught a *sick* Simulacrum set at Roulette. Simulacrum being a Zorn project featuring Medeski, Hollenberg, and Grohowski playing the heaviest shit imaginable. Bonkers how much range Zorn has.

Checked out the new jazz club, the Pocket tonight. Unfortunate location pretty much requires a walk thru Times Square which was extra hairy this evening with World Cup revelry. Inside is nice, though, on the swankier side, as you might imagine given the address.
Band was worth it: Joel Ross Good Vibes with Chris Potter, Miguel Zenon, Yvonne Rogers (!!), Kanoa Mendenhall, and Jeremy Dutton. They played 3 songs in an hour's time, largely due to so much talent each needing their solo time. But, such talent!

Also, Freaks Day Out today was a blast with two killer sets of music - from Drew Gardner and Vague Plot - and positively perfect weather for outdoor hanging.
This morning ended being quite hectic, doing DIY shows on your own is no picnic, but worth it in the end. Next one is 7/11, you should come!

I had no business leaving my apartment today, recovering from the weekend and some sort of vertigo, but it was 5 minutes away and I knew it'd be an easy 8-9pm hour of the kind stuff and that it was. New Masada Quartet never not astounding. Tonight, magical evermore for a sold out and rapt Roulette.

Tonight was a special one. Glenn Branca’s Symphony No. 13 for 100 Guitars, also known as Hallucination City. Holy fuck, what an intense and cathartic piece, and loud as fuck. Taken to the great beyond in my brain in the beautiful Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center tonight. A pay what you want show, too. Best city ever, man.

I will never tire of seeing Kevin Morby play live. Probably my favorite songwriter of the past 10 years. Another great one at BK Steel.
