Excited by Flat Earth Society Orchestra! Cool shit! They sure have been around a while now. Their new-ish The One is a new one to me. I *hope* to be able to get to NAC show ... we'll see. Unable to Rabble 'live' this eve, at least mostly, as usual for me. But likely OnDement "after hours" later tonight.

The Funding Drive starts on Friday, but you can get a head start and donate now - just click the “donate” button at the top of the playlist page! Kind of like early voting!

But unlike voting, you can donate more than once!

Thanks Manmohan - from watching a few videos from that 2021 performance, I think they’ll be impressive. Unfortunately, I’ll be in the studio on November 6 for the funding drive so can’t see them - hope you get to go!

FES! GREAT STUFF! Loved the live part off the top especially, and new-is The One is now solid on my hit-list. Can't wait to listen on the rest of the recording. HOPE to see y'all (everyone paying attention here) at the NAC 4th.

Not so sure about the description "... Belgian whimsy ... extreme ..." though. More art-jazz with a touch of free than whimsy on my ears at least. Darned interesting. ... and not "wimpy" as my untrustworthy schlemiel chewer wanted me to spell it ... q;^)

Thanks PeterB - I think you’ll enjoy the rest of the album. It’s on my list of favourites of 2024. I’ll be at the show in spirit, as I’m in the studio that night. Thanks for listening.
