I'm interested to here others' impressions of the 3 Chairs after-party on Monday. I have only been to two 3 Chairs parties--this and one at the Majestic Theater a couple years back. I unfortunately didn't make it to the after-party at OSLO during the festival a couple years back.
what year was the majestic theatre one? i didnt go to that one, but i did hit the oslo one, which was completely bananas.
Anyway both parties I attended had such terrible sound it was almost unbearable. In fact the sound was so bad at these parties I have come to the conclusion that they are going for a certain low-budget cabaret experience.
absolutely! BTW, you should always wear earplugs if you want to keep your hearing.....
This year's party definitely fit that mold being BYOB and in the old Serengeti ballroom--a traditional jazz cabaret club.
aha, i was wondering what that spot was. that was a really dope location for a party. nice dancefloor, awesome looking, etc.
Of course it wouldn't have really mattered if the 3 Chairs had been playing in a basement on someone's blown out home stereo system--I would have been there. Moodymann's set .... Need I say more? It was definitely an intimate evening to be remembered.
yeah, kenny came out swinging! theo and malik were dropping some really deep soul stuff too, that was nice. omar-s rocked it out before those guys came on, lots of tracky chicago business. a really nice party to end the weekend. tom
