Hey, remember when Gemma Hayes made one of my favorite albums of the new millennium? She's playing at Slim's on the 27th, but apparently it's a secret--you won't find tour dates on her site. No wait, it's not a secret, it's just bad management. Anyway, I'm so going.

(She's opening for Athlete, on whose site the dates can be found, buried in Flash.)

Oh goody!

The illegal real books, jobim, and bacharach, please! Unless the real books don't have lyrics, then those can go to someone else.

Thanks!

No lyrics. So far, by the way, the only place I've found to donate sheet music is Bridge to Asia (http://www.bridge.org/), but they probably don't need illegal fake books. Hmm. Anyway, I'll send the Jobim and Bacharach.

[jfb.livejournal.com]

Done.

Sent, except for the Fiddler's Fakebook, which didn't fit in the box. I'll send it separately or with the next batch of stuff if there's another batch of stuff soon.
