Astro-Jazz Quartet (Pearl)

Karl Poetschke of Ghostcar has a new group featuring Dana Sudorough (Subtle Vibes, Freddie Jones Quartet) on electric vibes, Lyels West (Marcel Ivory Quartet, Quartet Out) on bass, and Gerard Bendix (Swirve) on drums. Poetschke will man the electric trumpet and do spaced-out versions of Jazz standards from 8-11 PM at this fairly new venue. Pearl is at the corner of Commerce and Pearl making this a rare opportunity to hang out in downtown proper. The venue promises "no TV" and "no video games" and I can respect the anti-sports bar sentiment.

anything free going on tonight yo?

i thought this was wsjr, not bloody romper room!

Pearl used to be called Down. It's a nice space. Od location, true, but plenty of parking around.

So what. Go see your friends shine and chill out.

yeah, the pictures make it look kind of dumpy, but I bet its a lot better when shows are happening and (I assume) the lights are down.

damn, wish i was in Big D tonight to see this

from the website:

8pm start

(NO COVER unless otherwise noted !)

can't beat that!

this sounds like a shittin' good project.

the outside is deceiving, check out www.pearlatcommerce.com

cover?

sad, cos it looks kinda neat from outside of the window....except it's really in an unfortunate (commercially speaking) location.

this place looks really lame on the inside, it looks like a rec center or something.
