Great drummer & ESP. composer.
I saw his Quintet - damn - forget the name, but it had a woman's name, like
"The Jennifer Quintet" or something like that - which was heavily composed,
intricate chamber jazz type stuff, & was blown away.
I have no idea what he'll be doing, but I bet it will be worthwhile!
To hell with Survivor - go see some music!

One can now purchase this album from Tone Field's web site for $12.... I just got a copy yesterday and I think it's marvelous... Although I'm not familiar with the either guitarist previous work, I am quite impressed and moved with their playing... Both of them have elements of Frisell and Ribot that really work nicely with Joey's compositions... Recommended to all Joey fans...

The oboist who played with Chadbourne may well have been Carrie Shull, a
fine player who's also in the Micro-East Collective.

It's very possible that was her. I live in greensboro, nc where chadburne is
from (and occasionally comes back to every once and a while).

I was one of the zornlisters John mentioned at the Mills show, and he
described it really well I'd say. I was going to say that I only had 2 of
their CDs, Nameless Uncarved block and Live in Allentown, and that it
resembled Allentown more, but that only makes sense b/c that has the same
lineup. But the overall form and dynamics were similar enough that it wasn't
a real surprise. It was interesting to see how they made some of the sounds,
although like John said, you really couldn't see what he was doing that
well. My favorite part of the show was the noisier stuff Rowe was doing --
it got loud enough that some people were holding their ears (although these
loud parts didn't last long).
I did notice a few musicians -- Larry Ochs, Dan plonsey ... I'm sure there
were more (Jonathan Segel from Camper Van Beethoven for one apparently), but
I didn't look too carefully.
As for this:

i keep seeing these kinds of statements from different musicians. which is
fine -- at least here they are saying that "they" are moving in this
direction, as opposed to "the music" or "things in general." because maybe
they are for some folks, but not for everybody. i thought amm was
interesting, but i also (heresy) got a lot more out of paraphrase. it is
acoustic, jazz-based free improv, but it's not cliched, it's not retro, and
it has the physical/emotional/rhythmic qualities that i look for more and
that amm doesn't have (or strive for, yes yes, i realize this). i guess it's
