Caught Jack playing with Bill Kirchen on Saturday down at Village Gate. He does it all and those guys just go from one to the next. Must be nice to play togehter for so long that you don't have to think about the next song.
Talked with Jack a little before they played and afterward. He's a really nice guy! Played a three piece custom (small sized) kit along with a Ludwig Accrolite. Sounded fantastic.
Y'all gotta catch them next time they're in the area. Great music from three really great guys.

I REALLY wanted to catch that show, but this weekend just had too much else going on. I've had Commander Cody cds in heavy rotation for years. Their steel player (Bobby Black?) was awesome!
Seems like Kirchen has been playing Rochester quite a bit lately. Maybe he'll be back soon?

He said he really likes it up here especially in the summer because playing outdoor things down south getr pretty sweaty and sticky. He said the crowds here really know music and appreciate good music, all types. I'm sure he'll be back soon. Maybe another gig at the German hous in the winter.

Jack is a great drummer! and a great guy to boot!! He's a total band guy, not a hot shot hired gun.... and what about his groove......i totally dig it!
