Second Gig in London

Played again last night with the David Halpern Quartet at a cool venue in West London called Cogden Club. It was a much more spacious place, with more people in the attendance, and most of the other acts had soul or neo-soul elements. One girl from Glasgow was particularly good.

We lost our French drummer since the first gig - he left for better compensation - so we had to break in a new guy. He did a pretty good job considering we just had one practice. Overall it was a bit sloppier than the first gig, but actually got a better reception from the crowd.

I appear to be transfixed by the Kama Sutra-inspired painting behind the stage.

This sounds really awesome. Jen you'll have to report on the audience perspective vs. US.

I personally am eagerly awaiting the Crabdaddy gig here!!

Glad you all have been having so much fun! (I'd expect no less!)

I'm excited too about the CD reunion gig - hopefully some others from the ole' days will come by for it. I reached out to Kristen Annonuccio via facebook - she lives in Charleston now but can't make it.

See you soon! -H
