Doing a lot of preparing for my show tomorrow...
Got a piece of wood to take to the gig for Cartier to tap on... shout out to Prince Lumber ...ha...
Went tonight to Bowery Electric to see my friend Lisa Sansouci with her band This Hollywood Heart, and I ran into my drummer Jeff Villanueva who was playing there with his band. Both groups were really great!
Always love to see live music and get inspired :-)
Now trying to get some sleep for tomorrow...Wish me luck!

Going to shows
I love going to see shows and being with friends.
Friday I was at the gym with Katya. I got a 30-day pass to Mid-city gym, and tweeted about it. She was like "that's my gym too!!" So we coordinated. IT was fun just sitting on the bike talking and getting exercise at the same time haha.
Then I went to Tap City at Symphony Space, put on by the American Tap Dance Foundation. It was wonderful. Met Mishay and Michelle Dorrance there. Michelle was supposed to perform but had a bad foot injury that day unfortunately. But wow, some of the tapping. My friend Cartier had a solo at the beginning that was unreal. Tap is so joyous, and so musical. I love it.
Today I slept soooo late and then recorded a YouTube video (Heatwave) and then went to a late set at Blue Note. My friend Juri Jinnai's boyfriend Romain Collins was playing with his trio, and it was excellent. It's a great room, because they have a quiet policy, ha, so people actually pay attention. IT was a nice time, then I stopped by Stonewall after, which I had never been to.
Over & out
