Any plans to play at the Catalina any time soon?

The place is great and we thoroughly enjoyed Robben's show.

I haven't heard of anything yet, but maybe later this year.

I've always liked our gigs there, tho parking and a grand piano eating up half the small stage has always been a bit of a production pain.

However, last time we were there, Catalina herself told me they will be moving to a larger, more accessable building a few blocks away next year. It will be interesting to return and see what the new venue will be like.

What a great place to see Robben! I saw him, Roscoe and Tom, I don't know, maybe a year ago there. I'd seen them more times than I can count but never there. And it was sure a surprise to see Roscoe and Tom. Robben was sick with a cold or something and had cough drops laying on his amp. The place is so small that its like having Robben do a concert for you in your living room. I loved it and would love to see him there again.
