[...] 4) You recently returned from a week touring in Japan, including gigs in Tokyo. What was your impression of the country and the people you met, following the disasters that befell Japan earlier last month? Was your tour affected by the earthquake/tsunami/nuclear plant calamity in any way, and if so, how?Our tour wasn’t directly affected. Radiation levels in Tokyo, where we were most of the time, were less that they were in Denver. We didn’t experience any discomfort or inconvenience in any way. But it was a solemn, tense time due to the tragedy and uncertainty. I think we (Phil Woods Quintet) were the only group from the U.S. not to cancel after the disaster. I have to say people were surprised to see us, but they were very happy we came. Check out my blog post on why I decided to go. [...]

Brian,
As one of Japanese Jazz Fans, I admire your decision not to cancel your trip to Japan.
Although we are suffering from some electricity shortage in Tokyo, now you know that Japan (especially both Nagoya and Tokyo) is very safe and there is nothing to worry about.
Actually, the situation in northern part is terrible and we are so sad to see the news everyday.
For this one week, all we hear is this sad news and there is some depressed mood in Japan.
But I know that Music has a power to cheer people up.
So there is a meaning for you to play here this time.
Plaese show your powerful play and also please talk with audiences after the show.
I’m going to Cotton Club (maybe on Wednesday).
This is a great venue and I bet you like there.
I’m looking forward to meeting you there.

Well, I hope you get into it big time, now. None of this “semi-regular” stuff. We want to hear what you have to say on a regular basis. Tammy
