I went to see the other Flecktones' show at GWU tonight. It was a completely different show than the night before, and there were two special guests. Sandip Berlman sat in on the tabla drums; he's a hell of a player. I have seen Sandip play with the Flecktones at the Birchmere several years ago (that time he also had a sitar player as well as a flute player). And the other player was Isaiah Williams. He's a new kid onto the scene (I think that Victor discovered him). He's a drummer with lots of talent. It's a bit raw now, but that's understandable. He's eight. Sheesh, he's going to be a monster in about five years or so. Anyway, outside of Isiah's sit-in, the show was very reminiscent of the Live at the Quick DVD.
Afterwards, I went up to some of the members of the band. After seeing Jeff Coffin being such a class act to that kid from the night before, I had gone out earlier in the day and bought JC's solo CD. So I wanted him to sign it. He did, and while he was signing it, I noticed the same kid from the night before. He had gone out and bought three Miles Davis CDs.
I also got another photo with me and Bela, since someone pointed out to me that the photo from the night before looked more like a Photoshop job rather than a real photo. And, having gone through all that, the new one isn't all that much better. @#()*$@#! !!
