Swing on Friday, Burn on Saturday!

Hey all!

I'm still recovering from Miri... but it doesn't stop there, does it? A lot of ya probably weren't able to make it to Miri, but that doesn't mean you can't get good jazz in good ol' metropolitan KL, right? They're loads of weekend gigs happening, but I'm only gonna mention two, of which I'm playing! Eh hem, I obviously gotta sell myself, mah... it's my blog, so deal! AHahah.. for real updates on jazz gigs happening around KL (and Penang), then check out www.alldatjazz.com for more listings.

But over here in my domain, it's all about me, ME, ME! LOL... just kidding!


Jokes aside.. I'm playing two different flavors this weekend: Lots of swing, bop, and vocal jazz on Friday at the Top Room, and chili hot(!) latin jazz on Saturday!

Without further ado..

THE DAVID GOMES QUARTET Featuring JUNJI DELFINO @ THE TOP ROOM


Swing your way down to the Top Room this Friday and Saturday for a taste of the Gomes'es and a rather large dose of swing, bop, and all that jazz (pun intended!). The aftertaste of the Miri Jazz Festival aftermath is still there, so I'm quite sure you'll get a little taste of it. Meet the band members, with David Gomes on piano/vocals, Junji Delfino on vocals, Vincent Ong on double bass, and Jonathan on drums, with Julian Chan on saxophones on the Friday instalment.

Venue: The Top Room @ Top Hat Restaurant. 7 Jalan Kia Peng, KL
Date and Time: 25 and 26 May 2007 (Friday and Saturday), 10:30pm onwards Admission: RM20 nett (free crackers and nuts all night) For reservations call: 03-21428611
