Hi Bill -

It's my first 'house' gig on Hammond, although I play the one at BB 
King's on a regular basis. The band is great - Miles Joseph on guitar, 
who is amazing (plays with everyone from Aretha to Dylan), and usually 
Tim Scott on bass, who plays with Jack Mack and the Heart Attack - the 
club owner is the drummer (nuff said), but I'm singing, and the PA is 
good enough that I can really enjoy myself. My buddy Marty Grebb played 
there a couple of weeks ago after us, and they get a lot of great local 
& regional blues or rockabilly acts (that's where you get your turnout 
- the rockabilly fans are, well, fanatic) - I don't see how he's making 
money, but I'm going to go with it as long as it holds out - maybe even 
bring one of my girl bands in...

I think that Klymaxx is about done - there's only so far we can go 
without money or management (we need a show, choreography, costume 
changes, etc. for the big Old School tours or corporate gigs), and 
there's a big brou-ha-ha concerning the disgruntled ex-members, VH-1, 
and a reunion tour that she (the girl who owns the name) doesn't want 
to do...so I'm back to my 'roots' - blues & soul & rock-n-roll.

Back to the 'swelling of the mighty organ'!

All best, Alicia
