Jay Funk Dawg Posted August 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 This is going to be a wacky tour.. I haven't been on such a long tour in a long time, so It's going to be wicked fun.

Jay Funk Dawg Posted August 9, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 High Plains Drifter is a funky jazz, worldbeat, latin, reggae, blues and ambient ensemble. We're a jam band in the sense we do not stick to a 'genre' we swtich it up from Santana like instrumentals to folky singer/songwriter, from reggae arrangements of jazz standards to blissed out world beat excursions. come check us out brah!

hammond_eggs Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 Hmmm... that is interesting. Given that I'll be in Peru sucking back Pisco Sours, and that we don't have a drummer, and only played once since January :cool: It'd be great for the 'Station to play, and maybe they will, but alas, I won't be there...Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
