[size=4]Hi People. This February,we are planning to invite above band to London to play at the venue called "Charlie Wright's International" in Hoxton. I love all these musicians, but dont know how many people know them in London and UK and what kind of interest we can expect from the public. Would be great to know your thoughts regarding this.

[color="#A0522D"]"CHRIS DAVE TRIO featuring FOLEY & GARY THOMAS
Miles Davis Alums Join Chris Dave for One Night Only!
The Blue Note ~ 131 West Third Street, New York

Chris Dave returns to the Blue Note with a brand new trio featuring bassist Foley and woodwind extraordinaire Gary Thomas. A versatile musician, Dave has held the drum chair in a variety of bands ranging from Mint Condition to the Kenny Garrett Quartet. His band-mates for this special one night only show are both Miles Davis alums (Foley was his last bass player from 1987- 1991). Foley is known for his unique technique, tuning the bass an octave up and playing it more like a guitar, while Thomas is known for his improvising prowess and distinct voice on all of his instruments. Led by Chris Dave, this explosive trio is not to be missed."[/color]

Here is some clips of the project and of Foley and Gary:
