Fan Recaps and Comments:

A classy horns-and-all ensemble outfits this suit-and-tie affair at the Bowery Ballroom. At least some of the show was videotaped, and three of the songs (plus some inter-song banter) are available at the old tmbg.com.

The horn section for this show consisted of:

• Ed Palermo (alto sax)
• Steve Elson (tenor sax)
• John Isley (tenor sax)
• Tim Ouimette (trumpet)
• Jim O'Connor (trumpet)
• Chris Washburne (trombone)
• Dan Levine (trombone/tuba)
