Video: David Reid

A new lot of concert footage has recently surfaced on David Reid's Mish Music site. David's footage has always been a great window into the European concert scene for us Americans and it's nice to see he's still at it! This lot features an excellent set from the trio of John Wall, John Edwards and Mark Sanders, Cranc with Mark Wastell as well as Radu Malfatti, a trio of Seymour Wright, David Papapostolou, Dominic Lash plus a few others!

Check the new batch of videos here.

Find David's earlier archives here and here.

Daniel Menche interview

Sorry for the lack of posts here lately. Now that summer is here and we're about to take a few months off from presenting shows, I'll do my best to start sharing my internet finds with all of you.

To kick things off, I just found a great interview with Daniel Menche conducted by music journalist (not musician) Elliott Sharp. Elliott asks Daniel about his recent releases on Editions Mego and Touch with Daniel really opening up on how they were made and what drives him artistically. Worth checking out!

While you're over on Elliott's blog, check out his brief impressions on our show with Toshimaru Nakamura last month. Thanks for coming out Elliott, nice to see a new face at our shows!
