you'd think the February blues would generate some snappy banter. oh well

Speaking of curing the mid-winter doldrums with a dose of what's going on these days the two of you in particular shouldn't have missed last weekends NYC music curve. Copal frontperson and balkan/celtic/arabic/electronic master violinist Hanna Gypsy came down from Boston to rage the weekend with us. She sat in with Haj at the Globesonic event, on my set at CoSM (with BlackLight and Spiro), jumped into the recording studio with SubSwara and wrapped up the weekend by fully killin it over both Haj and my sets at CHuRCH. NY may have won the superbowl but Boston took the weekend in freekworld. At the top of my new favorite things to do fo shua. Check out Copal's CD "Eso-terra". The freeks are fully smitten.

... and BlackLight walking in off the street @ 1 AM to grab a mic, push his way over to Alex through a packed room of berserk dancing CoSMsters that Hannah and I had been beating mercilessly for an hour and proceed to freestyle reflect what Alex's brush was creating on his painting while he was painting it while cross referencing the collective art of generating the love vibe in the room. I swear, the more altered seeming revelers looked as if their heads were going to pop. :-)

so yeah y'all really need to par tayyy with us more often.
