Just repeating:
This is at Wightman School on Solway Street, 15217.

NOT at Edgewood Club.

(Jeffy, can you edit your post to remove the Edgewood Club address... that is confusing. :roll: )

No more Matthew?!? :( This is so very sad! But, I suppose we should let him go to college rather than force him to cater to our musicial desires. But, he's going to be missed! *sigh*

:cry: yeah looks like july or august he leaves the fold. actually we are very happy for him, great young man, great musician (it's almost amazing the music he listens to and plays for his age group), and a lot of fun. he is going off to play football somewhere's (he hasn't made up his mind yet), but he is "ours" for awhile yet and the torment continues!!! not from us....................from him!!! :D

Cuatro De Mayo Blues

Postby dancingcook » Mon Apr 30, 2007 8:25 pm

Instead of EOM blues dance for April, we pushed the dance up a week to the first Friday in May. It is the Cuatro De Mayo Blues Dance!

Come and join us at Wilkin's School for a great May blues kickoff. I will be djing half of the night. I forget who is djing the other half. :oops:

Either way, it'll be an awesome time.

See you there!

So Come to Quatro de Mayo Blues, have a great lesson -- Jeff J and Lisa T (big? Lisa), listen to great blues from Big Matt & Little Lisa, and dance with great partners

btw This is the first time that Jeff J is teaching at one of our dances, so there will be new things to learn.

It was awesome having Lisa Matt and Matt there! Plus there was a great turnout... I counted about 20 people there. The room felt decently full. Plus there was a Jack Attack about halfway through. I put "Jack Attack" in the subject of the Chicken Swing e-mail and then didn't explain it in the e-mail message :P

Anyway, the blues dance was a blast... also Jeff & Lisa T's lesson went really well. What a fun night. :D
