Various theories exist explaining how Jeff Buckley began his Monday night residency at Sin-E in April 1992. One notion is that he was steered towards the venue by Daniel Harnett, a musician friend of Rebecca Moore's, who played in the band Glim. Buckley backed this up in an early WFMU interview, and also mentioned that Dorothy Scott, a regular performer at Sin-E, 'put in a good word for me'. (Buckley had dropped a copy of his Babylon Dungeon demo tape into Sin-E, but it's unlikely that Doyle played it. He tended to ask hopefuls to play something on the spot, completely impromptu, rather than endure demos.) Doyle, however, believes that it was Hal Willner, a Sin-E regular, who suggested to Buckley that he return to play at the venue he'd turned on its head during that one night with the Commitments' Glen Hansard. 'I guess Hal took a liking to the place because it was a little odd,' Doyle figured. 'It was Hal who suggested Jeff play there. Hal knew Jeff.' On one occasion, Willner brought Marianne Faithfull into the venue and she liked it so much she played there on three consecutive Thursdays. 'He knew lots of people,' Doyle understated.

 

from http://www.huntingbears.net/buckley/gaylesmickyinterviewhtm.htm I lived with Daniel at that apartment and played in Glim at the time, good times:

Mick: I think it was a combination of the two. It was perfect -- the fact that I had seen him solo. The first time I had ever seen him was at the Postcrypt Cafe, which is a place where they used to bury the clergy at the basement of a church on Columbia campus, near uptown New York. And I wasn't even going to see him; I was going to see my friend's band, Glim, with this guy Daniel Harnett. Beforehand, there was this other folk woman who sang, and then there was Jeff. I was like "Woah! This guy's really something, and he's doing this open tuning kind of thing, which I found very interesting. Not a lot of people seem to do it -- at least they didn't seem do it very well. And it was such emotion and power to it and such a great investment and also natural ability that I was really taken by it.

I kept on thinking about it, and this was maybe March of '93. And after that, I just talked to him briefly -- we went to an after-show party over at Daniel's house. We talked very little, and we didn't even exchange numbers or anything. I didn't tell him I was even playing bass or anything. But I just kept on thinking about it.

 

Daniel Harnett is playing now, check this true genius out:
