I thought Freight and Salvage was in Berkeley? (I don't get out much...)

Bob Hoffnar · Post by **Bob Hoffnar** » 17 Oct 2004 8:36 pm

Bob,
I think it is in Berkeley. It looks like we are doing a radio thing in Santa Rosa also at KRSH on the 1st.

Ha Bob If you can find out a little more about the KRSH thing in Santa Rosa. Will be there for sure.The Berkeley thing Ill check out, not far from here Lost weekend with Bobby Black just played there Hope to check it all out thanks, By the way the I order came thanks!!!

Herman Visser · Post by **Herman Visser** » 17 Oct 2004 10:18 pm

Hem's new album "Eveningland" may be my favorite album to come out this year. Check it out, and listen for Bob's solos on "Dance with me" and "Lucky". If this record doesn't make at least minor stars out of this band I have lost faith in humanity. I believe Bob will also be picking his fine-sounding Guernsey dobro on this tour, yes or no Bob?

Hey Bob,

Any hometown shows planned?

Love to come out and hear the new stuff, though maybe I already missed the gig in NYC. I can't remember whether there was one or not...

See you at the Tin Angel, Bob.

Bob Hoffnar · Post by **Bob Hoffnar** » 19 Oct 2004 3:00 pm

Nick,
We are playing on Nov 9th at the Bowery Ballroom. I'm really looking forward to it. You are going to like the new stuff.

Herman, Its just a radio show in Santa Rosa in the morning I don't think there will be any place to put an audience. You could squeese next to me on my pac a seat but it might get awkward.

Gerald, I'll have the dobro for some dates. It depends on if we have the violin with us or not. I don't know whats happening with the dobro for the Bowery gig yet.

I'm looking forward to meeting you forum guys on the road.

Bob, what time do play at the Ballroom gig?

My dilema is, The Django Festival begins that night. I'd love to see Hem and then run over to the 11pm set at Birdland.

Bob Hoffnar · Post by **Bob Hoffnar** » 23 Oct 2004 8:41 pm

Howard,
If you come to the Hem show I'll noodle Nuages for you inbetween tunes untill I get the fish eye from the band.

I'm looking forward to meeting a bunch of you guys out there.

It was good to catch up with you after so long! Don't forget to say "hi" to Claire for me.

Anyone who gets a chance should catch this show. Check out their website for samples of their tunes.

Better bring your long Johns. I'm hearing forcasts for flurries up New England ways. No more California dreaming for you...

Bob,
I enjoyed your band!
A really nice mix of instrumentaion and vocals.
Someone should start marketing a set of bells that attaches to the front of your steel!
(That girl played some really effective fills on that bell unit.)
Sorry ourt visit was so short, but good to see you in Portland.
Pete B.
