Hi Kaveh. Welcome (Benvenuto) Italia! (I have to write this in a couple different posts since it only accepts 400 characters.) My name is Colleen (with two L's! ;) and am an American girl (woman) living here in Italy, and more specifically at the moment, Taormina (Giardini-Naxos) Sicilia. I read your story of how you ended up touring with Ligabue, and must say-
- you're an amazing bass player and very blessed to have hooked up with this tour. I love this country, and am a HUGE music fan, no matter what it is. As you mention ELO, Eric Clapton, I saw all these guys growing up in my small town in East Troy, Wisconsin where I was blessed to have a Amphitheater in my backyard....literally and now have a home in Florida where the weather is much better, thankyouverymuch!)
From 1978 to 1990, I saw just about everyone that was on tour in those years...and, equally blessed to have back stage access since my parents ran the first aid and emergency clinic. Anyhow...here I am living in Bella Italia (I lived in Bologna and Tuscany for work, and a few places in-between over the past 2 years) and have fallen in love with the music of this country.
Music is the most fun way to for me learn this beautiful language, and make friends that are all musical. Si, just about everyone at first taught me all the "bad words" since, in the south they are especially useful! (Ha ha). I discovered Ligabue among the other musicians I like here, but must say, he really hits a cord with me since he's; a great writer/poet and seems rather down to earth.
(not to fail an mention, good looking and just super talented).
A good friend and I have our tickets to see you all in Palermo at the Velodromo, Saturday. Though I am rather small, (and was stung hard on my foot by a sea urchin yesterday - Roccio di mare, mavaffan---o!), I'll still be doing my best to get to the front with a small American (and Italian) flag. Along with my blonde hair, there won't be too many clones of me in the crowd, so keep an eye peeled!
You're a great writer and enjoy the posts. What you and Michael Urbano are doing next? Back to California for a tour? I'm sure you are too busy to send an email but, keep us posted. Have a great end of tour in Palermo, and have some pasta con sarde there.. it's the best in Sicilia! If you smoke, it's the best there too;) A presto, and Salute Ligabue per me. Bacio, Colleen.

Hi Kaveh!

I'd love to do some dates with ROSH but I am already booked at the Salty Mermaid out in Rancho with Elton "John" Ginsberg for the 2 years. Try calling Marvin Tellytwat from "Grove Machine" (they play every Thursday at Sardo's in Burbank). By the way, It was nice seeing you at the "Pro Jam" at "Suzie's Crab Trap" in Simi last Tuesday. I'll never call Mr. Magic again! Whoa, what a tempo!

Hey, Kaveh. It was cool to see you at the Rhythm Room All-Stars show at North Beach Jazz Festival. This inspired me to lookup all the people I knew at Eastman. Everyone seems to have their own website. I like Eric Biando's best, because of his funky chicken outfit.
Thanks for letting me know about Kneebody. I will pick up the CD sometime. I remember all the guys in this band from Eastman (except the drummer) and suspected that you all would get famous (infmaous?) someday.
Peace!

Kaveh, i am sitting next to Miles Brown in a rehearsal today for a concert featuring a peice of John Altieri's. In the third movement, the "punk" movement, miles plays a punky bass line... driving, minimalist 16th notes. In fifths... I said, "get your kaveh on!" it was a kaveh moment... then he stood on a chair and rocked that shit! miles is taller than you standing on a chair.
shout out to jd in rochester! I got you on tape! what!??
