The opening party for Visual Clave - candid iPhone shots!

Here are some fun informal iPhone shots of the opening by my colleague, friend (and graphic designer) Moira Greto who was there at the opening last month. Thanks to all of you who made it to the show, from family to Latin Night regulars, FamilyFun colleagues to fellow Shokazoba and Beige band members, faculty to students, radio and music friends, and to all my friends who couldn't make it - no worries, I know you'd have been there if you could have - there will be other opportunities! Many thanks to the gallery staff and volunteers who made it happen, especially Brendan and Paula; to Glenn; and to Jesús and the band. To all my fellow DJs who came and threw down the rare vinyl: Muchas gracias para venir y tocar! Andujar, Bogart, Bosq, Jonathan "Semi-Colon" Goldman, Mike P, and Studebaker Hawk - you will live on in history! — Bongohead

Live Afrobeat with Zozo & Shokazoba




Hey hey y'all - be sure to come on down to Northampton's Elevens Bar this Saturday July 24th and check out 2 great live afrobeat/afrofunk orchestras!! Zozo Afrobeat are my friends from NYC (check 'em out on Country of Guns, the bonus CD to the compilation Andujar & I put together for Rough Guide). Speaking of which, I'll be selling those very same CDs, plus Andujar will be DJ-ing (with live percussion) and local photographer and video artist Andrew Greto of Bell & Howl will be providing the visuals with his wild projection show!!
