The Black Diamond Blue Five Jazz Band (with Leon Oakley) continues the
tradition of Louis Armstrong and Sidney Bechet.  They play many of the
arrangements of Clarence Williams the same way the hot bands of the
Twenties and Thirties did, with a bluesy pop-jazz sound, the finest
stomp beat, intensity and talent.

Spacious Dance Floor.  The lodge has Food and a Full Bar.

One month later, NVDJS will feature Ted Shafer's Jelly Roll Jazz
Band on Sunday, January 9, 2005 from 1-5 PM at the same location.
