The Queen of Hang: Sheila E. Anderson

The "Queen Sheila"

Please forgive this "shameless" self promotion...I am trying to convince Dizzy's Club Coca Cola to officially add this drink to their menu.  It is in the system so should you order one they will be happpy to make it for you, however, it is not listed on the drink menu.  To find out the ingredients look in the section "Food and Drink" on this blog.

THANKS!

A NEW BLOG!

Finally, WBGO has started a blog.  Check it out...

American Museum of Natural History

Water: H2O=Life!

Tonight I went to the opening reception for the exhibit.  It is so impressive I plan to go back when I have more time to take a longer look at it.  The entrance is so cool that I wanted to walk back and forth just for the experience of walking through dry ice flowing like a waterfall with words projected on to it. 

I love that museum but there is to much to take in during one visit.  Music is important to AMNH so If you have not attended their jazz concerts at the Rose Center for Earth and Space, you really should.  Perhaps you may have heard the live broadcasts on WBGO, the happens six times a year.  Should this be your first time hearing about that series you can also log on to WBGO to find out which concert will be broadcast.  The next two performances are:
