See last post for ticket info.

........... might be playing with Cory Henry and the Funk Apostles in the UK towards the end of November. I have no idea of the regular line up and it might well be that he will not be the touring bassist, but he is in the band on various youtube vids so who knows. It will be worth going just to see Cory Henry and anyone he deems to be cool enough to play in his band.

I have never been to the Ruby Lounge. What is the standing view like? Any seating? Do people queue for ages etc etc. I do not fancy making a 2 hour drive and then staring at the back of someones head cos I should have got there 30 minutes earlier to bags a place.

It's OK. Where Fender used for the Manchester leg of their recent tour.
It's downstairs and the area in front of the stage is standing only and it isn't a massive area. There is some seating, but not much. Bar isn't too pricey either. They tend to make you wait out side and then open the doors and "herd" you in, which doesn't take long.
i guess it's a pretty old school type of club.

Just checked his website and he is at Band On The Wall, not Ruby Lounge.
Now BOTW is a class venue. Standing only and a large balcony, so get in and head there.

Ugh! I was confusing this gig with Jojo Mayer the week before. I now know where I am going and when. Good times are go! Sharay Reed confirmed on bass as well! Most excellent!

Cory Henry is in the Jazz Cafe Nov 16th. Sharay (1st name terms for me as well!) is with him in Manchester on Nov 13th, so I would guess so.

I'd hoped to see Sharay with Cory too, but he's said that he will only be on the stateside dates unfortunately. Still be a beast of a gig whoever ends up handling bass duties though!

Where has he said that! He's Confirmed for the Monte carlo gig so I would think he's doing od the other European dates

That's strange! I got a message from the man himself 6 days ago saying that he wasn't, only the US shows. I was going to have to make a long journey to catch Cory's shows, so wanted to confirm if Sharay would be on the shows also.

If he says he is not there, then he will more than likely not be there! Ho hum, I would have gone to see Mr Henry anyway so it is all good. And I am sure that anyone Mr Henry deems to be funky enough to play in his band will be funky enough for me :)

Ah really? Hmmm So do I go and see Corey Henry [i]sans [/i]Sharay in Bristol or Soul II Soul in Cardiff?

Edit: Given that I saw Corey play with Snarky Puppy a couple of weeks ago too..
