23 - Acre (western Wisconsin) - solo
24 - Hungry Brain - with C. Erb, J. Roebke and Rosaly

August 1 - Myopic with J. Berman
August 4-7 - Hagenfesten (Dala Floda Sweden) w/ Seval (Jernberg, Lonberg-Holm, Stackenäs, Strandberg, Thorman)... AND... a duo set with Lotte Anker.
August 9 - Something somewhere in Stockholm
August 10 - Mono - Oslo with Staale Liavik and Per Zanussi
8/11 - Something somewhere in Oslo
August 13 - Karlsøya Fest w/ Staale Liavik and Per Zanussi
Personal front: Just back from visiting Winston at the hospital. Biopsy done today seems to indicate cancer. Waiting for results. Meanwhile, he is being kept medicated and aside from not being "himself" is doing pretty well. Send good vibes if you have any to spare. Thanks!
Fast Citizen's Week!
Proud to announce... it's... Fast Citizen's Week!
(or at least my week!).
Fred Lonberg-Holm's Fast Citizens, with Josh Berman, Aram Shelton, Keefe Jackson, Anton Hatwich, Frank Rosaly
We are working on a new (our third) record. These gigs are part of the process. Come to all three and get a free copy when it comes out and your name in the credits!
For those keeping track; the first record was Keefe’s, the second, Aram’s and this one “mine”. Eventually we all plan to take a turn. As usual though, more than one of us will contribute pieces.
