looks like we can anticipate one or more bertha coolidge reunion shows in da fort during october. keyboard / vibes master joey carter reports that drummer rich stitzel, now based in chicago, is joining bassist aden bubeck in miranda lambert's touring band for some shows that month, and that possible venues for the bertha reunion(s) include the black dog and ovations, a room so new i can't even find it in google local. guh. and we're still waiting to see if joey, sam walker, dave williams, et al. do a reprise of their thelonious monk tribute at arts fifth avenue.
