Some pics above (and video below) from the Empty Cage Quartet double CD release concert at The Stone in New York City, April 17, 2010 (click here for the gig announcement + promo that was posted previously). We had a great time, an intense 3-hour rehearsal of new music, and then a lovely walk around Greenwich Village before the show. The Stone was full nearly to capacity, and it was great to see so many friends and supporters come out. Thanks to Tiflin and Mike Baggetta for the photos.
