E made a surprise appearance as part of an impromptu "super group" that included Jon Brion, John Sebastian (The Lovin' Spoonful) and Benmont Tench (Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers) during Jon Brion's show at Los Angeles club Largo Friday night, marking E's first appearance since the last EELS WITH STRINGS show, October 23rd, in Auckland, New Zealand.
E played drums on several songs as Sebastian and Brion manned the guitars and vocals, with Tench on piano. During the set E got out from behind the drums to play guitar and sing My Beloved Monster and I Could Never Take The Place of Your Man before returning to the drummer's seat. There are no plans for the super group to record at this time.
