One of the Richard’s from Television fame, not Hell but Lloyd, is about to embark on a tour. I happen to have a friend who is playing bass in the band, Dan Tamberelli. His band, Jounce, is opening the NYC date- Sept. 17 at Le Poisson Rouge. Supposedly the band is playing Lloyd originals, some Television tunes and even some Hendrix. (The show takes place on the eve of Jimi’s passing and LPR is actually the old Village Gate, where Hendrix played many times.) Sad.

Should be pretty fucking awesome… Here are the rest of the dates:

Sep 17 New York, NY—Le Poisson Rouge w/ Jounce
Sep 18 Herkimer, NY-Rides the Nightclub
Sep 20 Cleveland, OH—Wilbert’s
Sep 22 Milwaukee, WI—Shank Hall
Sep 23 Chicago, IL-Darkroom
Sep 24 Madison, WI—The Frequency
Sep 25 Minneapolis, MN—Nick and Eddie
Sep 27 Kansas City, MO—Record Bar

UPDATE-

Lloyd actually just released an album of Hendrix covers- amazing! It’s called The Jamie Neverts Story. Here’s a WAV file- hope it works.
