mark tonin Posted October 19, 2002 Report Share Posted October 19, 2002 Not sure if anyone has posted about this, but this sounds like a cool idea: Van Gogh's Ear presents: The Tuesday Night Music Club with "Passenger" and guests -An "open forum" for singer/songwriters, interpreters of song and musicians of all kinds and genres -Here's an opportunity be "playin' in the band" -All guest performers will be accompanied by local band "Passenger" Passenger is: Jason Raso (bass) Sam Cino (drums and vox) Jim Slansky (guitar and vox) The rhythm section has been provided and is there in order to respond to the musical needs of the each new performer. -As a guest performer you will need to provide the band with some sort of "road map" or guide to the piece you want to perform. A good example of a "road map" or guide would be a chord pattern written legibly on a piece of paper or a simple prompt like "12 bar Blues in E". Even a sung melody that the band can respond to would be sufficient. Each performance will be all about the guest performer but it will be up to that person to supply the starting point to each piece. -a guitar amplifier will be set up and sufficient microphones and monitors will be available for vocals, acoustic guitar, percussion, horns etc...Keyboardists will be able to plug into the mixing board or use the guitar amp. -First of this weekly series will happen Tuesday October 15th on the first floor of Van Gogh's Ear on the southwest corner of Wyndham and MacDonnell streets in downtown Guelph, Ontario starting at around 9:30pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
