Coming soon...
December 2001:
I had been a big fan of Stephen Jay's music since my husband gave me his CD "Tangled Strings" as a present (little did he know he was creating a "monster" :-)). I was instantly hooked so of course, pretty soon I had all three of his CD's and played them constantly, but there was something missing....I had always had the desire to hear him play his own music live, but never really had the chance to make it to California until December of 2001. A friend was nice enough to send me a tape of a live performance as part of an interview at a radio station in Santa Barbara, and that was it, I had to make the trip and see them play live. This show was at the Knitting Factory in Hollywood which is a very funky music club on Hollywood Blvd. Unfortunately, I did not write down the set list and it has been a while so I have forgotten some of the songs they played but, the ones that stuck to my mind are:
Tangled Strings
Trouble (You haven't lived until you have heard this one live)
Cool Dry Place
People Will be Tired
Go Like This
Hang on Sloopy (Steve's voice is very cool in this one)
Rock On (first chance I got to hear Zuie/ Pete sing, he has a very nice voice!)
This show also marked the first time I saw and heard Miles Jay, Steve's oldest son, play bass and he was absolutely fantastic! The set ended way too soon and sadly I had to go back home, but I promised myself that night that I would see them perform live again.....
