Live performance with De La Soul and Madonna @ The Grammys. I saw Gorillaz in concert with the first album, they've definitely worked on their live show since then. I still can't figure out how Madonna walked behind Murdoc in the clip. Perhaps she's just an animated character, too.

A friend of mine sent me this link the other day. And I never heard the ukulele played in such a way. In fact, I'm not sure I'd heard any ukulele besides Don Ho playing "Tiny Bubbles".

So consquently I was quite impressed with the skills of Jake Shimabukuro.

The new songs are excellent, and the second album will be available soon. This mercurial duo is playing only their second stateside show, as far as I know. So I recommend getting while the getting's good. Because then it might get going and be gone or something like that. I'm not the PR guy, what do I know?

Thursday night, February 11 at The Brighton Bar in Long Branch, NJ. According to the schedule, tickets are $6.00. I can afford that on a blogger's salary. So consequently, I will be there. So come say high to your favorite blogger, or even me, for that matter. I'm told that Sudden Ensemble should be coming on around 9:15 PM.

New songs are on their MySpace page. Songs from the first album appear at the Sudden Ensemble page at ApacheMatrix11. The first album is available from Angelika Kohlermann (Austria).

And I'm posting Antwerp just because I can. At least I think so, but as far as I'm concerned a C & D letter would mean somebody read this blog. At least one somebody. Besides me.

Sudden Ensemble - Antwerp.

Mp3's will remain available until I remember that they've been up kind of long and should probably take them down so someone goes and buys something. That's my disclaimer.
