Re: Klezical Tradition in Springfield, MA April 19

[Inna Barmash <ibarmash...>]

Hi folks, 

Yes, according to the owner of Satalla, they are indeed planning to have 
klezmer every Sunday starting in May (he asked me to make this announcement at 
the Klez Dispensers show there a couple of weeks ago).  I'm trying to dig up 
the contact info, email me offline if you need it. 

And by the way, save the date for a great night we are planning on May 6th at 
the Baggot Inn - 

PIEROGIES AND PO-BOYS:    

A NIGHT OF EASTERN EUROPEAN AND NEW ORLEANS DANCE MUSIC AT THE BAGGOT INN, NY

 

Romashka, The Village Klezmer Quintet, and the Gold Sparkle Brass Band are 
joining forces at the Baggot Inn on Thursday, May 6th. The show will feature 
the lively music of  Romanian & Russian Gypsy caravans, the Eastern European 
Jewish diaspora, and New Orleans second line, which grew out of the funeral 
procession traditions of African slaves. Pierogies and Po-Boys, the Red Line 
clashes with the Second Line!

  I heard it second hand. Would anyone else who was there that night like to 
speak to this?

  Presumably I'm "speaking" with the guy in charge for now: Steve Lurie. Not 
impressed....
  I send a packet and the first thing that comes back is "Do YOU think you can 
get 50 people there?"  Almost like a dare. You send a CD, full of good reviews 
in the envelope and a decent bio and that's what he says first thing?? They 
needn't approach people that way. After all, you're not getting a king's 
ransom; it's called "da door!"   I' would think there more pleasant ways to get 
a dialogue going.  And it continued downhill from there. Did you hear, Rukhl, 
from this "horse" Steve or do you think it was someone else?
