AND WILL HAVE DIALOG ON ARE HOW<br \/>\nHE INFLUENCED ,TAUGHT AND INTRODUCED US TO THE BEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD !!!!<br \/>\n WE  WILL MISS YOU PROFESSOR <\/p>\n<p>I myself have to confess that I really only had one really loooooong conversation with Tim one afternoon in Harvard Square, but it was enough to send me in multiple directions looking for new (and old) music, books, theories. And we corresponded a little bit over the tubes. So I&#8217;m honored to be able to offer yet <a href=\"http:\/\/wayneandwax.com\/?p=298\">another forum<\/a>, tonight, for friends and family to remember Tim thru the music he loved. I&#8217;m getting the impression this is gonna be a night of celebration, with lots of local DJs lending their hands and ears and crates, so come out and add to the vibes &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Beat Research<br \/>\nEnormous Room<br \/>\n567 Massachusetts Avenue<br \/>\nCambridge, MA<br \/>\n9pm to 1am, 21 plus, Free<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you&#8217;re in the Boston area or in reach of an internet stream, don&#8217;t miss Brian Coleman&#8217;s radio tribute on WZBC this evening from 5-7 pm (EST). Brian and Tim used to run a show together in that time slot, dedicated to ol-school hip-hop and electro (&#8220;Funk to the Folks&#8221; \/ &#8220;Back to the Old School&#8221; \/ &#8220;School Beats&#8221;).
