I will be playing in the band for the Shotgun Players run of the Three Penny Opera which opens December 2nd, in Berkeley. I only found out at the first rehearsal that the band is actually on stage, not in the pit. Apparently there is a fair amount ...

My roommate is master of synths and turned me onto an iPhone app that let's you make beats. 很好！

I can't find the music I want to hear so am setting out to create it myself. This is the portal. Enjoy.

I'm slowly learning Mandarin. After a brutal 7:45am, m-th class at San Francisco City college last spring, I've regrouped and am taking a very civilized 10am saturday course at the Chinese Culture Center downtown. I met with gypsy jazz guitarist
Doug Martin to get the scoop on playing in Shanghai. He has two groups. One in SF and one in Shanghai. What a great gig!
OK back to work, anyone know the characters for Aiy-Ya? :-)

It's been a while since I made an entry on this site. Been busy working on composing some new music, new bands, new jobs and generally over-extended with online social networking. Had to take a Facebook hiatus.
I've been seeing a lot of good shows lately. Trumpeter Eddie Gale with William Parker and Marcus Shelby on basses, Kid Jordan on sax, wow. Val Mih was playing piano too.
Yesterday was at my rehearsal space and ran into Ralph from Freak Accident who was surprisingly working with bassist Mark Kennedy on a recording project. Mark was my first bass teacher and is a good friend. Surprising because Ralph is a punk rock god guitarist and Mark is a jazz player. Nice to see the genres breaking down.
More soon. Peace,
Eric
