[Melissa Jordan Subject: Alloy: Who will be at the NYC Ethel gig? Stevie, you'll be there, right? Anyone else fortunate enough to be attending the gig? If you don't know the scoop, Ethel is a pretty amazing and innovative string quartet. This ain't yo' mamma's classical music. :) Here's the skinny on the February 15th show: ETHEL February, 15 2007 at ETHEL FAIR @ Symphony Space, Peter Jay Sharp Theatre 95th & Broadway, New York, New York 10018 Cost : $26/$21; Day of show $30/$25; Members $24/$19; Rush $10 Celebrate a near-decade of ETHEL commissions, recordings, innovative performances, and collaborations! The evening, curated by ETHEL, will feature selections from ETHEL's LIGHT CD - recently featured as #3 on Amazon.com's "Best of 2006: Top Classical Editor's Picks!" as well as collaborative performances with renowned clarinetist David Krakauer, Thomas Dolby (five-time Grammy winner best-known for the hit "She Blinded Me With Science"), composer/guitarist/inventor Mark Stewart of Polygraph Lounge, automata inventor/musician Kurt Coble and P.A.M. Band, pioneers of the new rock complexity Electric Kompany, and Navajo poet/singer/songwriter and two-time Native American Music Award nominee James Bilagody. You can learn more about Ethel on their myspace page: http://myspace.com/ethelcentral And you can see them, performing with Joe Jackson and Todd Rundgren back in 2005 on Late Night with Conan O'Brien here: http://youtube.com/watch?v=UB3QKSQ_P0s Makes me happy to actually see Joe Jackson smiling at one point in that clip - I swear, I've seen Joe play several times now (and had a less than cordial meeting with him in a book store) and he rarely cracked a happy look. To the NYC punters - have a great time! (Same to TMDR, for that matter!) ;) Melissa http://merujo.blogspot.com - --------------------------------- Check out the all-new Yahoo!
