97.1Guitar jazz in FraminghamGUMDRP::KELLYJTue Nov 18 1986 12:0216
    Emily Remler appears at the Matrix this week (Thursday through
    Saturday).  Two shows each night; something like $8 per show.  She'll
    have a trumpet player and bass and drums, so it should be an
    interesting little ensemble.
    
    The Matrix is located inside the Crown Plaze (Crown Royale?) hotel,
    Rte. 9, Framingham.  It's in the middle of the 'miracle mile' of
    shopping centers and movie theaters; it's on the south side of rte.
    9.
    
    Emily plays jazz on a ES335.  She's an excellent player and I expect
    it to be a good show.
    
    Adios,
    Johnny Jupiter

    Emily's got an archtop these days, maybe a Borys?  See my note in
    the music file for a mini-review.  Terrific show.

97.3More about EmilyGUMDRP::KELLYJMon Nov 24 1986 20:5313
    Emily plays a Borys; she said they're made in Vermont.  She also
    stated they (Borys) are giving her another guitar, built more along
    the lines of an L-5 Gibson.
    
    The trumpet player was hot, wasn't he?
    
    I'm the sound engineer at the Matrix (and an avid guitar player!)
    so I'll be sure to keep everyone posted regarding the lineup of
    artists.  
    
    Regards,
    Johnny Jupiter

    Yeah, the trumpet was hot!  If you did the sound, my compliments.
    The Matrix did not look like an easy place to get a good balance
    in.

    Well, thanks for the tip of the hat...you're right: it's not the
    best hall for sound.  In addition, because the management at the
    Matrix wants to provide 'atmosphere', they don't want the typical
    mix position set up in the house.  So...the mixer lives behind(!)
    the stage right speaker.  Way to go 8^)
    
    Fortunately, the band was professional and had good control of dynamics
    and balance...made my job a lot easier.
