David Buchbinder, live, April 26
I’m excited to announce that on Sunday, April 26, 2009 at 3pm in a bright corner of my little deli-in-a-dive-bar legendary Klezmer phenom David Buchbinder will lead a trio in two sets of wonderful music. I love live music and we’re lucky to have a player of his caliber. Fortunately David lives locally, likes my food and forgot his wallet.
A little while back we had Vancouver Klezmer player Geoff Berner and his trio play a really cool acoustic set and ever since I’ve had the idea to bring live music to the Monarch. Then a few weeks ago, David left his wallet in the dining room and when he called me to ask us to hold it, I pitched the idea.
The first show will be free but in future weeks we may ask patrons to contribute. I’d like to have them play every Sunday but its up to you, my friends.

That was a great afternoon Zane! Thank you!
We were only planning to stay for one set, but the band was just so good we had to stay longer. A great success!
And the exceptional food didn`t hurt either.
I posted a short review and photo here:
