Title: Kaki King
Post by: Wonkies on October 16, 2003, 11:58:50 pm
Oh, man! She's an incredibly awesome guitarist with a freakishly crazy Stanley Jordon-esque two-tapping style!  I know that sounds odd but I don't know how else to describe it! :D

I heard her tonight on Conan and I was blown away!  Awesome musician!  I do believe I might just go buy the album based just on what I've heard tonight.

Yeah!  That's how I found out about her.  I actually saw a commercial for the show prior to it coming on and I went to her website just based on what I saw on the commercial!  Then when I saw her play on the show I was even more amazed.  Absolutely awesome!

if you go to www.rosebudus.com/king/ there's other info on her as well

"Kaki is a 24 year old instrumental guitarist with a unique style who has recently been out on tour supporting Tim Reynolds, Victor Wooten and Mike Gordon of Phish. In addition to her own shows, she performs chapman stick and percussion in the off-Broadway smash Blue Man Group band. Look for Kaki on a limited number of live dates in 2003 and then back on the road in 2004 -- see tour dates."

Monday is the big show!
Since none of her stuff has lyrics I doubt I'll be able to tell one song from another, but I cant wait to see her play.

I wonder if I'll get to meet her.

The killing ended tonight till she returns to me again

Pics from tonight:
http://protocol.blackvulture.com/pics/kakitripledoor

not that many cause the venue staff were asshats and made me stop after like 4 songs.

Some things learned...
her long fingernails are real, not long fakes. Each night before a show she has to file them a certain way.
The song on her new CD: "Can the Gwot Save Us?" is a political song, GWOT stands for Global War On Terror.

I didnt hang around after, so I didnt meet her this time, but thats okay.

:wink:. It is only a 300 person venue, so chances of getting to meet her would probably be pretty good, too.

You just have to poke me until I buy a ticket or something :lol:.
