I was at an open mic in Hanover Square last week and asked the girl hosting it, Lisa Gentile, if she wanted to try playing together that night. She seemed very hesitant at first, but decided she liked what she heard when I figured the songs out on the spot. I've got a good ear. That's probably my best musical attribute. If you play something, complicated or simple, chances are I can pick it up quickly.
So Lisa asked me to play with her at the Diva's Festival this Saturday Night. I won't be playing any of my own material. I am backing up Lisa for her set at 8 PM. This show (obviously) features all women who are notable CNY artists. Jessie Chick is playing, and she's really great. There are a few others, but Lisa and I will be first I think.
It's at the Syracuse Center for the Performing Arts at 728 E. Genesee St Syracuse, NY. It costs 15 bucks to get in, but this is a pretty major venue and there are a lot of artists, so the money hopefully isn't an issue.
