    Saw him open for Shadowfax at Lone Star Cafe in NYC. He had a belly dancer perform with him. It was a wild set!

    RIP

    Sad to hear it. Great player.

    I saw J & The Satyrs in the late 60s in NYC with my older friend, who was a H.S. of Music & Art classmate/friend of Steig's as well as Eddie Gomez, who was also a contemporary there.

    Hung out with the band after the gig. I just listened to old friends tell HS stories & just drank & didn't say much (amazing for me, eh?). Jeremy did buy me a drink though.

    His (& my) friend died in 2003 at age 60 (Prostate C). Shit, should I even still be here?

    RIP!
