[Dixielandjazz] Smugtown Stompers At The Mug - December 16

[BudTuba at aol.com]

Perhaps you have had a few bouts with this year's holiday shopping and want 
to reward yourself with a good meal and some good fun?!  (Bring the whole 
family to show the kids what traditional jazz used to be like.)

On Tuesday, December 16, we will be playing at The Mug Restaurant, at 3240 
Chili Ave (Chili-Paul Plaza off the Chili Center from Rt 490).  We are happy to 
feature Paul Preston on clarinet and soprano sax with us for the evening.  
Paul is the leader of the Barroom Buzzards band from Buffalo which has played on 
the Showboat moored in the Buffalo harbor for the last 20 years.*    Old fans 
of the Stompers will remember the concert (about 10 years ago) we put on at 
the Batavia Holiday Inn which co-featured the Barroom Buzzards and the 
PierceArrrow barbershop quartet with us.  Paul loves to recreate the Sidney Bechet 
sound and the night should be a lot of fun!  The time is 7 -> 9:30PM and table 
reservations can be made at 889-4547.  There is no cover charge, but we do accept 
donations to help with our mailing campaign.

*(Ed. comment: Contrary to the common conception...not just stuck in the mud, 
but actually floating.)

Our recent concert for the Flower City Jazz Society in Buffalo reenforced our 
commitment to early jazz.  Several fans came up and thanked us for a solid 
evening of dixieland jazz which was not "watered down" with other pops music.
