Shoji Hano @ Cafe Oto, 12+13 April 2011
 

Does anyone have any credible rumours to share about who's going to be playing with him?

Awww, you got my hopes up that there was news.

Nefeli - You do know that Shoji Hano's playing a couple of dates in your part of the world quite soon, do you?

I met Shoji last year. what a great guy!

Haino is playing here the 13th, so he might join Hano the night before.

Still don't know who he's playing with, but I'm going to see him on the Wednesday.

Shoji Hano

Duos/Trio with:
Paul Dunmall Saxophones/Bagpipes
John Edwards Double Bass

Wednesday 13 April 2011
Duos/Trio with:
Alex Ward Guitar
Pat Thomas Electronics/Piano

well, now that's all over, can anyone get these uploaded to Mega? I also saw that there was an A'dam show with Haino, O'Malley and Orembachi at OCCM that I was hoping Martin or some other good soul taped and will upload???

Didn't go, fried from work/study and low on funds. Bailed on Earth (Thursday) as well. Pokkeherrie might have taped Hailleybarchi.

Hitting Oxes this Sunday, though - can't wait.

After all my fuss, I didn't make it to Shoji Hano. Had some dental work done that afternoon, and was in quite a bit if pain.

I didn't tape it, but I uploaded some clips to youtube. You'll have to do it with those and my word that it was absolutely brilliant:

(uploaded some Haino from Roadburn too)

Did you go to that? I was planning to after Roadburn but fever and diarrhea kept me from doing so. I haven't been ill like that in over 10 years and Roadburn is really the worst time I could think of for that to happen. :mad:

On Friday I was vibrating on the toilet during Winter's set, I nearly passed out during Sunn0))) (with Haino on vocals) and then I finally did collapse during Caspar Brotzmann Massaker. Missed most of that, which is a pity because I later heard he had Michael Gira coming out on vocals during the encore. Immodium and water kept me alive on Saturday, but I didn't make it til the end of Swans that night either.


Godverdomme.

Yes, went and taped Oxes - fun show. See also my post here:

Pity about being ill on Roadburn, the Brotzmann/Gira and Sunn0)))/Haino collabs sound amazing. Feeling better?

Yes, fever is gone and although my stomach still hurts at times I was already able to go back to work on Monday. It's not fair.

I think the Caspar Brotzmann/Michael Gira collab wasn't planned as such but just a spontaneous thing. Because I noticed Gira jumping around in the crowd, waving his arms like a lunatic earlier on during Brotzmann's performance. It was hilarious.

edit: hehe, he's on youtube:
