Reuben seems to be acting just as if not more haughty as he claims Dave is. But, to be fair, there are other, more descriptive superlatives Dave could (and probably should) use than "greatest band ever" or "greatest band *you'll* ever have the chance to dance to," which implicitly (and even casuallly) demeans all bands that everyone on this list has seen, which is quite broad: especially on this list with people who have put together custom-made bands, themselves (ummmm) , and especially before the line-up is even finalized. I've made the same mistake, myself, so I understand that Dave's hype comes from enthusiasm, not condescention.GuruReuben wrote:Look, I think it's great he's putting together a band that HE thinks is going to blow everyone's socks off, but quite frankly his sweeping assumptions based on his personal enthusiasm are not a complete truthful means of advertising. That's really the only thing I was taking issue with.
Lawrence, the band line-up is finalized. It's the other details of the event that aren't yet. But the band - and the 10,000 square foot beautiful space - is all confirmed.Lawrence wrote:and especially before the line-up is even finalized.

I really liked HRO at Harlem, but my favorite was Lily Wilde at the Portland exchange a couple of years ago --- her full in-town band was there (normally when we see her in Seattle she has a traveling band), and it was an excellent combination of a hot band, a good floor, enough room to dance, and plenty of great leads.julius wrote:What is the best band you've ever danced to live so far?
Was it the jam band at Memories when LCJO was in town?
