[Tradjazz] bon voyage!

[Jim Fryer]

Friends: This is a last minute blast before I leave for 3 weeks in
England, for lots of fun and music. Go to my website below for all the
news - but just wanted to point out a couple of favorite upcoming gigs:
MAY 23 FRIDAY 8-10:30pm: I'll be at the Silvermine Tavern In Norwalk CT
with my favorite "Usual Suspects"
check out: www.silverminetavern.com
JUNE 19 THURSDAY 7:30-11:30pm: My first gig at one of NJ's top venues,
we'll play my own take on Trad Jazz, with a twist!

Also wanted to point out that VINCE GIORDANO AND THE NIGHTHAWKS are
starting a new STEADY gig, on Monday nights at Sofia's in midtown - come
out to listen AND dance - go to my site or email Vince directly:
vincegiordano at optonline for details (I'll miss the first few in May, but
I'll be back - promise!)
Other gigs you should know about: 2 of my favorites are at Birdland in
NYC (www.birdlandjazz.com)
- David Ostwalt and the Louis Armstrong Centennial Band, every Wednesday
from 5:30-7:30pm, the best "trad" players in town
- Andy Farber and his big band, every Sunday 6-8pm - new arrangements of
classic and offbeat material
I often am there, sometimes to play, sometimes to listen!
And if you haven't been to Jon-Erik Kellso's Sunday night gig at The Ear
in lower Manhattan, boy are you ever MIA! go to www.kellsojazz.com
My website has an old-fashioned order form for my CD's, lots of info via
my links page, and ALL upcoming performances, including great festivals
all over (like in Mammoth Lakes CA in July), amazing cruises (Spain in
Sept, Africa next January).
Thanks for your time - hope to see you soon!
Regards, Jim
