Jazz, Blues, & Swing in the Pacific Northwest

We also played a “social dance” set for the Balboa fest Saturday. Most of Saturday was pretty serious for dancers. There were classes, competitions, discussion groups, and all sorts of things that let you know these dancers mean business when they hit the floor. Their interest and dedication shows when you watch them strut their stuff.

The social dance was only a one hour set for us on Saturday night, but we truly enjoyed it. It would have been fun to play a little longer. The dancers and band alike were having a great time, but Gary’s got this thing organized, optimized, and running like fine watch.

So, as I mentioned, we’d have loved to have given them a few more tunes; we very much enjoyed playing for all those dancers, and we’d do it again in a heartbeat.

Hey, Gary, you know that we encourage dancing in the aisles down at the New Orleans on Tuesdays nights? You know that, right? C’mon down
