We've played threee times so far and are booked through December.<br /><br />7:00-9:30 PM, Wednesday, October 11, November 8, and December 13 - Kopper Top Guesthouse. Tickets are $7 at the door, with cash bar service.

It was at times, amazing, and at other times it was experimental. One thing was consistent: the inability of drunken white people to dance. OK...there were some good dancers. In fact there were some excellent dancers. But there were also some people who were a hazard to anyone within an arm (or leg) length away. Kind of reminded me of high-speed tai chi in a mosh pit. I nearly lost an eye when, without warning, a very enthusiastic dancer started whirling her arms like helicopter blades. Well, the night was a welcome diversion from the election. Let's not get started with the election. Support your local rhythm section and buy them a beer!<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8696264-110022734311572968?l=beltlinebigband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>BassZillahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05846373439075832576noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8696264.post-1098203105651246492004-10-19T09:23:00.000-07:002004-10-19T09:27:43.890-07:00Did you know that "trombone" is French for "paper clip"?

Blog blog, blog blog blog blog. Blog blog. Blog. Blog blog, blog blog blog blog blog. Oh, and I have to say blog chatoyancy has nothing to do with blog LaToyancy, because over 90% of all blogs are half dimlights that never had a weird shirt on to rip off in the first place. Bloggy, blogeddy blog blog blog. New word of the day, how about coprolite. It's so petrified, I don't think postively positronic suppose-atory's will help. <br /> <br />Really this is just a bloggedy blog blog test. I am not serious, really. Honest. <br /> <br />jivehorn <br /><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8696264-109779297185299454?l=beltlinebigband.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>jivehornhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150860770261077333noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8696264.post-1097628095624273602004-10-12T17:36:00.000-07:002004-10-13T15:19:44.833-07:00This is the edge of the blog.
