Hi
From memory this is a more of a one-off thing (though repeated at various times with variations) - I guess it'd kind of stem from the Tony Williams 'Emergency' thing, but I don't think Ribot was originally involved in that (just Zorn, Medeski and Wollesen or maybe different drummers).
If i remember correctly, the idea of Emergency was to have only concerts with Zorn Medeski and Ribot as fixed members, and at each concert a different drummer. at least that's how it was performed the first couple of times at the knitting factory, oh boy, some years ago. Haven't seen them since, maybe now Wollesen is a permanent member also, and on each concert different underware... arthur
