This is just a friendly reminder to my supporters: I won’t be at NB Lounge tonight, 2/14. I kept apologizing in the past few days (lol), but let me repeat… I am so sorry! AND I truly appreciate your thoughtful messages and the kindest remarks regarding this schedule change. I cannot thank enough, and your [...]
This is not the greatest news I can bring you, but here we go… (Japanese entry follows) Although the schedule has been published on jazz freepapers like Hot House, web, ML, facebook and such, I regret to inform you that my gig on February 14 is cancelled. I was looking forward to sing for you, [...]
How was your weekend? Mine became a very relaxing one. (I think that I needed it to be relaxed.) I went to see a movie in Sat night with SH (The King’s Speech was excellent), and before the movie, she and I had a quick bite at a Chinese restaurant across the street. Meal was [...]
Oh, randomness, randomness…. #0 Tomorrow, Monday, December 13, I will be at NB Lounge with Nobuki. Starting at 7:30 PM and goes until 11PM. We’ve been playing pretty often in this year, and I enjoy playing with him a lot. Working in one on one setting, “to play together often” is the simplest, but the [...]
Finally, I know who’s on which day in the 1st and 2nd week of October at NB Lounge to play, and was able to put them together in calendar. (Cheeky Smile!) On Monday, October 4, Art will be back (yay!). It was really fun when the last time I have played with him Those who [...]

本当に最近の不景気から来る客足の読めなさには どこのお店も頭を抱えているようで。 そういう我々演奏する側も、やはり頭を一緒に抱えている。（抱えてませんか？） ワタシのお世話になっているラウンジのオーナーの口癖なのだが、 人の動きは全く読めない昨今、毎日冷や冷やの連続よ～、だそうだ。 昨晩のラウンジは、最初は「ああ今日も静かな夜かしら？」っていう出足だったのだけれど、 ２セット目終わりからは、月曜日にしては上出来と思えるところまで持ち直し。 でも、月曜に人が流れると、絶対、どこか他の曜日が静かになる。 これはどうやら動きの読めない今であっても、唯一、大まかに読めているパターンの一つ。 さて、木曜日、栄進さんが来る日の客足は、どんな感じになるんでしょうねー。 皆さん、お近くにお越しの際は、是非お立ち寄りください！ Thursday, June 10 at NB Lounge 7:30 PM to 11 PM Mamiko Taira (vocal) Eishin Nose (piano) NB Lounge is on E56th Street between Park and Lexington Avenues (at the Lombardy Hotel) No Cover, No Minimum そういえば、６月１０日は日本の時の記念日ですね。 時間をきちんと守り、欧米並みに生活の改善・合理化を図ろう、っていうのが 目的だったらしいですけれども、これ、未だ未だですね、日本は。 残業は沢山あるは、休暇はとりづらいはで、時間の使い方に関しては 時の記念日の効果はあまり出ていない、ってことでしょうか？ふむ。 昨晩のラウンジのギグが終わってから、一旦家に帰って 久しぶりにSmokeのセッションに遊びに行った。 ラウンジに歌うようになってから、すっかり月曜日のセッションというもの、ご無沙汰で [...]
May is an interesting month. It makes your mind and body feel lighter as feather, brings you laughter, and even fills you with a new hope. It makes you want to share your joy with others. It is perhaps much springier than April with certain throb. In Japan, the month of March is the graduation [...]
