Arrivederci, 17023 SE McLoughlin Blvd., Milwaukie, OR
A month or two ago, Lloyd sat in with my trio at Arrivederci and brought the house down, leading to this booking with his own group! Lloyd and I will be joined by saxophonist Warren Rand and a drummer-to-be-named-later. If you haven't been to Arrivederci's before, you've been missing out; it's one of the nicest venues around. Delicious Italian food, pleasant decor, warm staff, EZ parking: just a great scene! Expect co-owner Steve Hanneman to emerge from the kitchen during that last set, tenor sax in hand, to join the fray!
