Kennan
The Guest Book

Hi! C'mon in. We've been waiting for you. Have a seat. Tell us a little about yourself. Where ya from? What do you do? Do you like Haiku? Well, here's your chance to sound off. Don't be intimidated by the whole "Sign in" deal; I had to do that due to nefarious guest-book spammers. I got tired of cleaning tons of porn links from my site every day.

    • Hi Kennan, found your site via the Red House site. Very beginning bass player for a few years (been a begining guitar player for 30 something so I gueass I'm ahead of shedule this time ) Always felt more drawn to the bass tho. Jumped in and got myself some equipment a few years ago and spend what little time I can squeeze out of family life buying books and listening to blues albums. Probably would be better served trying to practice instead heh heh. I'll get to it I swear, the bass bug is just too strong to ignore now. Just wanted to sign the guest book so my teeth don't get pulled.

    • Hi Kennan It was so great to see you at the 30th year high school reunion along with the others. Oh I'm sorry now everyone will no you are not 29! I was perusing your website here and am very much "in awe". Looking forward to seeing you the weekend of the October 3rd and 4th up in my neck of the woods. P.S. For all the world to know, not only is Kennan an awesome musician but he is an awesome shopper. I needed specifically blue and gold cake plates and blue and gold candles for the reunion and he came through like a champ perfectly in every respect. Of course that is our dirty little secret. Oops now the whole world knows. Claire

    • Hey You - loved Rev Jack's blog! What a kid, eh? Anyhow, looks like me & my worse half will be moving back into the old Concord house next year. Looking forward to hanging w/you & the missus sometime in the future. As I've been going thru everything in my house, I happened upon some old pics from the late 70's. Band shots of you, Jamie & Joiret (probably in the garage) and some other goofy ones. Got a few good guffaws out of them!

      I'll be in touch upon our return - can't wait to be back in Cal! xoxo Jeanette

    • Hi Kennan! Thanks so much for the kind words on your site. I appreciate them more than I can say I'm stopping by to let you know that my book "From Zero To Sideman" is finished and available. Stop by www.fromzerotosideman.com and check it out. The book will also be available at virtually every retailer in the next few weeks. Hope all is well and drop me an email sometime! All of the very best wishes!

    • Hi Kennan,

      I just wanted to mention with sadness and respect the passing of NY Jazz bassist Dennis Irwin at the tender age of 56 of liver failure due to cancer. He had become a rallying point for musicians without healthcare. He was a monster player. From a recent NY Times article:

      "In 1973, while still in school, he got a job as a bassist playing with the pianist Red Garland; he moved to New York in 1974 without graduating and quickly found work with Ted Curson, Betty Carter and Mr. Allison, among others. In 1977 he began a three-year stint in Art Blakey’s Jazz Messengers."

      I heard some of his music on the local jazz station this morning as I was dropping off the girls at school. Sounded really good. RIP, Dennis Irwin.
