Kent, the video you downloaded was not us...I'd have to do some research to find out who that group (and the reong player in question) is...he kinda looks like my Balinese cousin, though...

Here's a shot from the Chicago gig:

(The player to my left is Jill Fredericksen, a member of our group since 1989 and one of the best jazz drummers in Denver...she's played with Red Rodney, Larry Coryell, and Tom Scott, among many others.)

The costumes are great. What are they make of, silk?

No, they're just dyed linen...

Back in 1968, I would've killed to own a purple 'Nehru' jacket...and now I'm in a band that wears 'em.

Good things come to those who wait...

Speaking of Nehru jackets.. more of a blueish purple than your reddish purple.

Okay, he can be in the band...but if he can't switch to right handed, we'll have to stick him at low end reong...
