Paul, your solo in Black & White keeps me from sleeping at night. The harmonics resolving into the C is ingenious. You're slowly morphing into my favorite guitarist, keep it up.

[mehling]

gosh, thanks! stay tuned for some devious resolutions in our Holiday CD "Hot Club Cool Yule" coming to a CD player near you soon!

[pencap23]

That was a treat, thank you! There needs to be more appreciation for The Hot Club of San Francisco and more videos as well. I think it might be an impossibility for me to see you guys in Selinsgrove, PA in September, but you should come to Philadelphia instead anyway! If you do, I will collapse in tears of profound joy. Honestly, I believe I would faint, it would be too much hearing Claire de Lune live. People would consider me a lunatic. =]

Thanks so much. Tell your friends, post it on FACEBOOK and don't forget- we have a HOLIDAY CD coming out at the end of the year...Something for everyone!

Hope to see you soon and thanks so much!

Silent Surrealism and HCSF hand my Romnichal blood boiling last night in Ogden, UT. The music of my heart! I can't wait till they come back!

That was awesome! I LOVE this music! So happy I got to see you guys in of all places Fayetteville Arkansas.

I just saw you guys last night, and you all blew me away. You're a real inspiration for my style of playing, and your idea for Silent Surrealism was fantastic. I met Paul last night, and instead of being an absolute jerk like all other performers, you, and the rest of the band were incredible kind. I'm so glad I picked up all of your albums, and had them autographed. Isabelle, you have a great voice, and Baker, you were amazing with the trumpet AND bass. Please keep playing guys!

[ToasterFerret]

Seeing them tonight!

I am ashamed to call myself a guitar player.

A Year ago I heard these wonderful players at a friend's wedding in San Francisco. Leader Paul Mehling was a friend of the bride and groom and that's how these great players ended up in Marin on a Saturday night. . Within two bars of the first number, I knew I was listening to a group of exceptional musicians, who also happened to swing their asses off in the process, Paul Mehling and Ari Munkres leading the way. A memorable evening.

Ah, my 8th and 6th grade teacher used to play this as well as some other classical and reggae tracks while we were working. I loved it!

What amps are the guitarists playing through?
