Wow, here we are celebrating the 100th birthday of the man who had such an incredible influence on us musicially. Time to get out the 18 year old Talisker and proffer a few toasts.
Have a great day Djangphiles
The Magic really starts to happen when you can play it with your eyes closed
Joyeux Anniversaire! Django! ~ thanks for blessing us with your presence on this earth. We had a big jam last night at my buddy's house to celebrate; we shared a special bottle of French dessert wine, 17%alc/vol the songs flowed free and fast; we munched on pizza; alas, no niglos could be found!
We're going to raise another few glasses to Django tonight at our gig at Sellwood Public House, in Portland...if you're in town stop by and play a couple of tunes with us. Cheers, Phil
I sat in with "Ranger and the ReArrangers" saturday night at a benefit for the Bainbridge Island Music Assoc. in WA state. 80 people showed up on short notice! Had other friends of the band play some including Double Bass, Gibson L5 electric, Trombone and harmonica!
......Gonna be an Annual Event now! What a tradition and great music!
......ps: My Holo sounded GREAT in this band!
