I've heard of these guys for quite some time now and didn't hear them (thank you, MySpace) until here recently. I'm interested in hearing more and I'm interested in your thoughts/opinions.

Soulive side project with Adam Deitch (badass) from Scofield's band on drums. Outta Here and Live In Tokyo are the only albums they have for all I know. I have both if you'd like copies.

My opinion is they are super funky and kinda heavy, but just a side project and they don't tour

However, you can always check your two reference points for a possible Lettuce appearance.

I'd love to get those copies from ya. I'm in need of something funky for my collection. I'm growing tired of the same ole' bullsh*t.

Yep. I'll give it a couple months before I start harassing Todd for a copy.

I am burning your lettuce at this moment... (can't read a sentence like that just anywhere).......You'll have to discreetly send me your new address and I will snail mail them to you. And about the show........ It is being mixed in the laboratory of a mad scientist as we speak. I'd like to know when they will be done but we don't want to bother the mad scientist while he is experimenting

That mad scientist is one crazy mofo.

For the record...I love Lettuce and truly believe its the best new funk band to emerge in the last 5 years (that I know of)...I just hope they keep doing their thing.

They're great from what I've heard via the CDs Todd sent me. I'd love to catch a live show sometime.
