Not many Latin violin players; I've listened to Tres Palabras, You're a nice mentor - even from So Cal. We have a relatively small Latin Jazz community - lots of bluegrass, c/w, whatever - & I like all genress, but this stuff just speaks to my soul. Very nice job, as in all the things I've heard online. Love to hear you live!

excellent, James; wish I was there!

Great vid, but I know the video doesn’t always catch the vibe and energy that live performances give in this joint and this looked brilliant. I love this club it's so intimate and small and yet gets some of the greatest talent. That stage can only hold about 3 or 4, and you can see these guys are sitting at the end of the stage, almost on top of the audience. This must have been an amazing night. I envy you. Thanks for the post.

Cool down y'all. I'm pretty sure that's sarcasm.

James, keep up the great work. Chicago loves you.

Wow James, this is really some great stuff!!

I much agree with yng31wie's response to LegockyViolin...wtf is your problem?

[aryanc77]

yeah dumbass,this guy tries... only to end up playing regularly w/ Alfonso, who is one of the best American interpreters of this style of music working today. They pack the Green Mill every Wednesday, and it's impossible to get a decent seat unless you come right when the doors open @8. It's usually standing room. Who the fuck are you? who do you play with, and where?

[LegockyViolin]

nice try!!))
