My birthday Thursday was lovely. It coincided with mermaidblue's one free night, so we met sibylla at Javamonkey for live music and wine. The sky was that perfect metallic cobalt of twilight and the air was dry and cool. We sat on the patio, where jazz was being perpetrated at ten paces.

I'd first heard the band, (dp)3, at Dragoncon last week. I had no idea who

Happy Belated Birthday!

Well, thanks! See you this Friday?

The last three are fantastic. I got to hear a little of thier set whilst herding nerds in Centenial. What I heard sounded good but I was a bit distracted.

Nerd-herding, huh?

Oddly it's the first and third that're my favorites.

[thegreyman]

Yes, we're a bunch of scruffy looking nerd herders. Of course that ups our nerd factor quite a bit all by itself...

The third is definitely my favorite. I like the contrast between the in and out of focus areas.

I think the color ones work well for what you mean, in terms of evoking the mood. And even though I typically prefer b&w, in this case those seem too cold to me and don't work as well at making me imagine what it was to be there.

Hey. Next time you go to Javamonkey, give a yell. I live in the same building! :) (And you'll recognize me next time, I swear!)

Happy birthday!

I heard both of their sets at D*C* and was soooooo impressed. I love their very cool fusion music.

Junkyard jazz with a classical touch.

The next show is at the Five Spot on October 14 - I plan to be there.
