The Sipe/Herring/Garrison/Rodgers tour in support of the
latest Project Z release? I know that tour was previously delayed a
couple of times due to scheduling conflicts.

The only thing I can see is I recall Jeff Sipe listed as the drummer for the Phil and Friends Winter tour as recently as a week ago and now he is off the roster along with Jimmy.
Does anyone else notice this as well?
Maybe there was a disagreement regarding Jimmy's buddy Jeff Sipe.
I just hope that he focuses on Project Z, the Codetalkers, and ARU and tours extensively.
Right now I suspect that there are some fish getting yanked out of Jimmy's lake.

for the record, I know zero about this. I only found out this morning from the internet.

I'm sure whatever is next is going to be sweet.

right now, everyting sounds reasonable. When a statement comes out that reads like that, nobody takes it seriously. It looks like a cover up, even if it is not.

I'm sure we will probably never know the full story, but either way, Jimmy is off in a new direction that a lot of folks have been asking for.

GO JIMMY!

So who can make it to Boulder this January for the real action?
I have watched Jimmy with ARU more than 20 times 10 years ago and missed the small reunion run late last year. I have seen him recently with the Codetalkers in Asheville and Auburn and with the Dragonflys in Asheville. The ARU shows will be off the hook this January.
It looks like the Boulder University Inn is the closest hotel to the venue on 1632 Broadway? Close enough for set break...
I have my tickets for both nights...by the way does anyone want to buy a pair of tickets, for face value, to Phil and Friends on 12/12/2005 in Atlanta as I am not interested in going now and could use the money for my flight to Denver.

I'll see you in Boulder!

If nobody here wants the tix, you could post over at www.tooboard.net

Someone there will probably take them.

Don't be surprised if that Ratdog appearance earlier this week is more than a one-off thing.

The 11/15/2005 Ratdog show with Jimmy is on etree http://bt.etree.org/ now for download.
At the moment it is the third show from the top.
I am ready to hear Jimmy and Bob jam!

This was taken from http://www.therhombus.com

Subwoofer: "I will say this.... it's all very odd. Herring leaves under "interesting" circumstances.... so does Sipe.... Molo bows out for a bit but triumphantly returns....Ryan Adams is the most talked about "poor decision" that he's made, and yet he backs this RA like he's the second coming.... and he finally finds a gem with Barry Sless(too bad he couldn't keep David Nelson around a bit more!). But it's all very mysterious to me....and I'd think that Phil's fans would be questioning his motives."

Phil: Jimmy Herring and I had been growing apart musically since the December 04 shows. It seems we worked better together in the context of the Q. We discussed this after the December shows, after Mardi Gras, after the Colorado shows and we both still felt that it wasn't right after Vegas. Clearly, it would be a mistake to head off on a month long tour together, so rather than forcing the relationship we agreed to go our separate ways sooner than planned. At that point I decided to ask John Molo to do NYE instead of Jeff Sipe as he had more experience with the material- although Jeff will be joining me again in February.

So there you have it from Phil himself. Hopefully Jimmy's made enough scratch and raised his profile enough to afford the opportunity to play the music he wants to play, rather than the music he has to play.
