Sexmob Joe Henderson Lab San Francisco, California July 16, 2026  The opening night of a four-night, eight-show run can be an awkward proposition, especially when the band has just returned from an overseas tour. Before the first note at Thursday's performance in the Joe Henderson Lab, Steven Bernstein, Sexmob's founder and slide trumpeter, addressed the issue. “We just got off a plane from Europe on Tuesday night," Bernstein told the audience. “We got ...
