Europe tour coming up

Hey, I've got a European tour coming right up at the end of October, and I'd like to invite anyone in the vicinity to come hear me play, and say hello. I'll be doing music from my 2012 CD of the music of Ornette Coleman, Little Played Little Bird, with some excellent Belgian musicians:

Jean-Paul Estiévenart — trumpet
Martin Méreau — vibraphone
Olivier Stalon — bass


Here's our current schedule, with a couple of other weekend dates in Belgium waiting to be confirmed:

Thursday, Nov. 1 — Bar Belge / Paris

Friday, Nov. 2 — Le Bab-ilo / Paris

Sunday, Nov. 4 (5pm) — Cafe Belga / Brussels

Tuesday, Nov. 6 — LiquID / Luxembourg

Wednesday, Nov. 7 — Buster Podium / Antwerp

Thursday, Nov. 8 — Sazz'n Jazz / Brussels

Saturday, Nov. 10 — Jakobshof / Aachen

I'll also be recording an album with my partner Casey Scott at Jet Studio in Brussels, for the Topsy Turvy label.

If any of my European readers want to take a lesson or two, I'll be based in Brussels from Oct. 26 through Nov. 10, with the possibility of meeting in Paris, Luxembourg, or Aachen. Hit the EMAIL ME link in the sidebar (under VISIT MY OTHER SITES) to make arrangements.

My brother, John Bishop, also a drummer, will be doing some dates over there at the same time. I highly recommend going and seeing him play if you have the opportunity:

Saturday, Nov 03, 2012 — Appeltuin Jazz / Leuven, Belgium

Monday, Nov 05, 2012 — Houtumstreet Jazz Club / Kasterlee, Belgium
