really?

Great news that you are going to see Charlie! I'm going Friday night, but when are you getting into the city on Saturday? I can pop over for a pre-show drink and say hello if you have time. Who knows maybe there will be an extra ticket floating around for Saurday night.

Charlie Watts at Lincoln Center!

The Rolling Stones’ Charlie Watts to Perform at NYC Concert Event in Late June

http://abcnewsradioonline.com/storage/music-news-images/M_ABCDofBoogieWoogie630_...
13 June 2012

Rolling Stones drummer Charlie Watts will play a special show on June 28 in New York City as part of Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing series. The event will serve as the U.S. debut of Watts’ jazz-blues side project, The ABC&D of Boogie Woogie. The group — which also features pianists Axel Zwingenberger and Ben Waters, and bassist Dave Green — is scheduled to play two hour-long sets, at 7:30 p.m. and 9 p.m. ET. Tickets are on sale now for $17 at LincolnCenter.org.

Prior to the concert, a dance instructor will treat attendees to lesson on how to do the Lindy Hop. The show takes place two days after the band’s first album, Live in Paris, will be released.

As previously reported, Watts and The ABC&D of Boogie Woogie will play a four night stand at New York City’s famed Iridium jazz club that will run from June 29 through July 2. The group will play two shows each night, at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m.

Spliced it into the existing thread which had fallen down to page three.

(There's a separate thread on the live album too - http://rocksoff.org/messageboard/YaBB.pl?num=1335810087)

Thanks for posting the article though - it's a good way to revive the thread in case some of you are thinking of going to these shows and/or meeting up.

Plus, I'd forgotten about the live record!

It was interesting to see Charlie play Boogie-Woogie style and he clearly enjoys it. I've never seen Charlie smile so much in my life! Not very often does he smile playing with The Stones, maybe that work is harder on him. Charlie was smiling almost the entire time at The Iridium, and was very engaged with the other musicians, much more so than with The Stones. I really do understand now that this is Charlie's musical preference, and he's damn good at it too! As far as the show went, I was a bit disappointed that Charlie was not on stage for the first 2 songs, then when he did come out the show wasnt very long. The talent of the other musicians was superb, maybe that was the point, to showcase them and promote the new CD. Before or after the show, Charlie did not come out and greet the guests, nor did he sign anything or stand around so we can snap a pic with him. I'm glad I went to see Charlie, but I would of liked a little more from him. I guess he doesnt feel he owes us anything extra, and he doesnt really. I left there feeling slightly unhappy, I wanted more of Charlie's personality and he didnt give it, he didnt interact much with the crowd.

Dont really get why people go to one of Charlies's side projects with Stones-like expectancies or expecting him to suddenly morph into some kind of Jagger-esque charismatic frontman, but maybe thats just me.

Anyway, for the benefit of those of you in the US, here's last night's Jimmy Fallon show featuring the ABCD of Boogie Woogie

Well Bitch can speak for herself Gazza. But I don't think anybody was expecting Charlie to come out and play Jumping Jack Flash, or try and work the crowd into a sing along and I wasn't there. But,still a "Hi,how you doing". A few words,a thank you to the audience. Something would be nice. Always leaves me a little cold when I see an act and they don't interact with the crowd at all. No matter how good they are.

True enough and a good point - but he's a shy and reserved enough guy at the best of times and pretty much the antithesis of what we expect from a media personality. That's what I meant.

I don't think he's going to suddenly transform into Mr Showbiz just because he's in another band. He's never done it before with any of his other side projects. I don't think these projects lend themselves to that sort of interaction and they're not really going to make exceptions to accommodate those of us who are more used to more mainstream entertainment.
