Re: THE DRAGON'S ROAR (fwd) - Cisco at NEA
..not to burst anyone's bubble here, but we were lucky enough to have seen Cisco play at the Gibson Cafe during the NEA Extravaganza and not only was the guy VERY nice, he went out of his way to pose for pictures before their set and was genuinely flattered by all the attention. (He also showed up at most of the other shows in town that weekend) Any time we ran into him he made a point of coming over and thanking us for coming to his show and just plain ol' talkin' 'bout stuff. Cisco and his band were great! His guitar player came across like a mix of Pete Anderson and Eddie Shaver, very nice stuff! As for Cisco comparisons, I'd put him in the El Vez (probably due to his stature and sideburns) meets Dwight category. Its a great show, enjoy!! Kate.

He just has a reputation for saying really inappropriate things from the bandstand. On the other hand, all the conversations Corrie (my wife and business partner) has had with him about the upcoming appearance at SXSW has found him to be nothing less than gracious and appreciative. As long as he shows up, does a good show and says thanks, I'll walk away happy. BTW, Chris Lawrence, his axeman, is amazing.
