If you don't remember I'm Lady T's guitarist and I'm on an afternoon gig in Waukegan at the Jack Benny Center. It's short 1:45-2:30 for $50.00. I know the bread's light but the guys are cool-Nick Tountas (bass), Dave Hibbard (trumpet) and me. It's easy. We'll just be doing standards ala Art Farmer/Jim Hall and you'd have plenty of time to get to an evening gig. Let me know as soon as you can one way or the other. Thanks.

hi Jeff. Give me a call on 217-553-0104. We have gigs strating on Thursday and friday. regional tour (Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa etc) then nationally. Our drummer from the UK has visa problems, we need to move on. www.myspace.com/johnwildegroup

Hey Jeff,
Thanks for your quick response. Your level of professionalism and ability to slide right in to these easy songs is certainly what's needed for this gig. Now we can just sit back and have a good time rocking the hits in 4/4 all night.
I'm checking in about the hit time now. My other drummer usually uses a little partial gig kit...kick, snare, hi-hat and a couple different hand percussion pieces...usually on the brushes all night. Of course, you do whatever you'd like. I'll throw up a coupla mics around you, and we're off.
I'll get back with you shortly about the hit time, so we can see if you can do it and confirm.
thanks,
Cory Hance

Hey Jeff,
Are you playing anywhere in Chicago this weekend? Or do you have any suggestions of a place to check out, preferrably with music ;-). We (Kelly, my boyfriend, and I) will be in town from Sat-Mon for a wedding. Would love to hang if you're around.
Cheers,
Tracey

Jeffrey,
The email I sent (below) to you was returned as undeliverable so I checked to see if you had a website and am sending this here. Hope you don't mind. NOw I have to come back and visit the website. It looks great.
Your Mom kindly gave me your email addresses. I wanted to thank you for all the wonderful assist in music you provided for our daughter's wedding this past Sunday. For the wedding a musician (recommended by Tim Paul Weiner) named Fabio Pirrozoli (I apologize for not being certain of the spelling) had a group that played wonderful music. He really did what she wanted and worked very closely with my husband to make her day a special one. An additional plus was that Henderson House where the wedding was has a grand piano which is kept tuned so this was great for the cocktail hour also. . My husband has telephoned and left a message for Tim Paul Weiner about how pleased he was with Fabio, but we also wanted to thank you. Please know your help and thoughtfulness thoughtfulness to an old friend of your Mom's is greatly appreciated! Your help made it a very special day!

Hi Jeff,
My name is Dex, and I'd like to inquire about the lessons. I started taking lessons a few months ago, but my teacher has been busy lately. I'd like to learn jazz. I bought two jazz books and that's where we base our lessons from. Would you be available during Sunday afternoons for lessons? Maybe from 2-3pm? Thanks.

Hi Jeffrey, My name is Brett, and I am currently playing drums for Rob Gonzalez. I had a quick question that he thought you could help me with. I am going to be travelling some distance next month and would like to know what you think is the most efficient/safest way to get my equipment shipped. Any advise is greatly appreciated. THANKS!

Jeffrey,
I ran across your name (and the tale of your last minute subbing) on Chris Greene's website. I'm a freelance recording engineer and producer in Chicago. I recorded and mixed Chris' last album 'jazz', and we're currently working on some new tracks (at Chicago Recording Company, then perhaps another studio). So, welcome to Chicago, and if you have any recording needs, keep me in mind; www.nickeipers.com .

Hey Jeffrey,
I'm a saxophonist in town hoping to start up a project that's been defunkt for a bit. I found you through Chris Green's site . Sounds like you guys had fun at Evanstonstock. Please visit my website, www.erickoppa.com and go to 'Sound Clips'. Please take a listen to the clips from The Zaragoza Quartet and see if that music interests you. It's not exaclty jazz, and not exactly world music. But, we feel we can market it to the Euro-Lounge scene and get some stuff happening. The music requires sensitive playing and I hear you do that real well. We intend to establish a paying regular in town. In the short-term we'd like to put the band back together and rehearse a few times.
Thanks for your time.
Namaste,
Eric

Hi Jeff, nice idea, contacting us via Gigmasters. I went on your website and entered your information in the event an opportunity comes up. WHat brings you to Chicago from MA? And, what "jobbing" bands have you been working with?
We'll spread your name around as mush as we can; Dave and I don't need subs much on drums. But you never know, and it's great to meet ya. Thanks for checking us out.
