Sound X 6
February 9 2008

I really liked how we came together today. The rhythm section was very tight and playing with John and Bruce took a turn for the better.
I felt more comfortable with these guys today and without any lead player it created a relaxed feel from which the musicians could take their time and find their own groove.

Bruce brought some new attachments for the drum kit, which added a nice medley of audible diversity to the grounding yet ethereal sound of the session.
Charley Kulinski stopped by again to play some killer didgeridoo, which freed me up to play a bit of Native American flute.

One of the great part about this combination of people is not just their musical talent and improvisational ears, but their ability to work with the less structured musicians like myself and really take the time to listen as well as talk out their thoughts. This makes it so enjoyable for all. I really enjoyed the session and look forward to our next gathering. Thank you Bruce, John and Charley

It is ALWAYS a great vibe @ Bluestar & I encourage all musicians, regardless what instrument you play or your musical orientation, to come & be part of these sound experiments. Just bring your axe & an open mind. Also, a generous spirit will serve the music well & in turn, yourself--& leave your ego @ home. Pete, Bruce, Charlie--thank you for your talents & generous spirits!It was fun as always & I very much hope to see Rich McGee when we get together again in March!
