Posted project update #5Thank you all!
Post CommentWell that's done! Thank you. What a wonderful team effort. And we have money for the piano tuner! You will listen to those tuned pianos all year and know you paid for them.
We will soon be in touch about your rewards — tshirt sizes etc. Compilations are being lovingly hand-burned as we speak.

Posted project update #4Getting close!
Post CommentHiya Backers,
$1588 to go! We've got 5 days, and we're feeling optimistic. Meanwhile here is another lovely video by Tony Cenicola, of an evening at Brooklyn Recording with lots of rehearsing. (We do rehearse a little, just before we roll tape.)

Posted project update #2it's a PROCESS
Post CommentHello and thank you all SO MUCH for your contributions. Very heartening! My sons, 9 and 11, were so inspired by your generosity and the box of cool t-shirts in the kitchen that they looked under all the furniture and came up with $5.11 to add to the pot.
In a day or two we will be posting a selection of songs from recent shows, for individual free download. Songs that never existed except for this project. Like magic.
Soon after that we will post show #14, which has Peter Holsapple LIVE! And Steve Wynn and Stephen McCarthy, and an amazing All Star line-up as usual.
Also in the can, awaiting post-production (we are meticulous in our looseness) is #15, with Michael Hurley and Katell Keineg. A gorgeous show.
. . . not to mention #16 — just recorded live at The Living Room in NY with Victoria Williams in the house, it's wonderful, can't wait for everyone to hear it.
And in a couple of weeks we'll be recording #17 . . . with your help!
Thank You!

Post CommentHey Backers,
It's like Broadway or something. Backers! Exciting! Let's put on a show!
We had a great time doing the show live last week. Here are a couple of reviews (one blog and one from the Wall St. Journal).
Thank you all!
