ZO2 Rocks with Bos


Z ROCK is a comedy series that follows three friends leading a double life: by night they're a hard-partying rock band and by day they're a kids party band. Z ROCK is (kinda) based on the true story of the band Z02 (brothers Paulie Z and David Z, and lifelong friend Joey Cassata) and gives a satirical look at the dark underbelly of the rock n' roll dream.
It's the most popular show ever on the Independent Film Channel and has just been renewed for another season. Check out drummer Joey Cassata and his Bos plates Sunday nights at 11:30. Click the pic for more...

Marty Morell

Jazz great Marty Morrel dropped me a line from Tokyo where he is working with the Duke Ellington band as well as Japanese pianist Takana Miyamoto. Marty writes...

I am so honored to play with this band. Gotta tell ya that we are killin' it here in Tokyo. Next Sunday, I will rehearse with Takana in Yuki, Japan, her home town. We have 4 Bill Evans tribute concerts after I finish with Ellington. Life is good. 'Best. Marty
