I am guessing I'll be at the last two at least. I will try to get the others recorded as well. The Life Effect was born with Andrew playing a residency at the Zeitgeist Gallery in Cambridge back in March of 2005. There was three shows that month and two more in May of the same year.

Fuck, Bear. I have a wedding to go to that day. It's actually in Tivuhdin, so who knows? But I'm not buying any tickets.

So did anyone see these shows (except for Portland obviously)??? Anyone tape? I was pretty pumped about these (albeit from the wrong coast)...

Clinton was there doin his thing. don't know if the tapes will surface. I saw atleast 2 other rigs set up though. Missed most of life effect, came in as Brad was on drums and so was droo (they had 2 kits on stage) then it morphed into a riff based vamp with vocals to close the set. Androo had what looked like an old oil drum he was bangin on.
JFJO was stellar. The new drummer is great in my opinion. Reed is alwayas great to watch, hes having so much fun! and Brian was playin a baby grand piano all night (except when he was doing basslines) which was a real treat. Here's a small video clip i took of the fred....

Not really sure what the onstage problems from a reliable source means, but speaking from the point of the tour manager and traveling with them, well, things have been going great! lets try and keep the rumor mill shut, that stuff doesn't really help anyone.......

Yo Fourth Trane:

Can you tell us what happened with Portland?

Did the venue just bail on the show? Hope the guys will come back -- would've been their first show in the big city!

Ok, well you always could...but the best way to retract something is just to retract it. Noone will notice and you can fix your spelling, too. :)
