If I had, I'd give it away.

Is he not here for this garguantuan SNL 50th anniversary live stream on Sunday? I admit I am backing away from it, such a gluttony of self-congratulation. 

he is. I think he's actually performing at Radio City for it on Friday.

Last week, at the Café Carlyle, we were lucky enough to see a great show by Benmont Tench; Benmont was Tom Petty's (RIP) keyboard player, and has played with, well, basically everyone from the Stones on down or up, however you want to look at it.

And he had a special guest, who was on a break from a mini-tour - Steve Nieve. He invited Steve up and they sang a beautiful version of (What's So Funny 'Bout) Peace, Love and Understanding.

As noted above, Steve is on a "mini-tour" with Elvis Costello.  Seems right, since he's been playing keyboards with Elvis for about 47 years.

We saw the shows in Red Bank and Montclair, NJ and will be at tomorrow night's show at the famous Capital Theatre, in Port Chester, NY.

A fantastic show at The Town Hall last night. T Bone Burnett, touring for the first time in nearly 20 years, in semi-support of his first album (The Other Side) over that same time period.  All strings, lots of bluegrass, just great - as is the album.

The strict no-photos policy was being enforced...with a light hand. So I waited until the final song to take a crappy pic...

The album is well worth a listen...or ten.

And guess who was just added as a special guest at Trombone Shorty's Treme Threauxdown during Jazzfest?

Not sure if this would be considered a gig, but N and I saw a brilliant SF Symphony concert conducted by Marin Alsop last week, making her SF Symphony debut if you can believe it. Alsop, like Gustavo Dudamel, is a conductor I've always wanted to see live, so I'm really glad I had the chance.  It was one of the best classical concerts I've ever seen.
