I’m off in a bit to play at the Blue Monk with composer/pianist Andrew Durkin’s sextet tonight. The group features some excellent players, including fellow blogger David Valdez and Scott Hall on saxophones. We’ll be doing a set of Durkin’s krazee arrangements- with all kinds of odd meters flying- and a set of blowing. 8-10pm. Come on down if you’re in Portland.
