[Dixielandjazz] Tonight in Wilmington DE:

[Steve barbone]

Quick reminder if you are in the area and looking for a good time tonight.

MARDI GRAS at Delaware Technical & Community College
3rd & Orange Streets, Wilmington DE.

7 PM to 11 PM - "New Orleans" Fundraiser so it might be tax deductible.

As with those "other" good times, this one costs $100. For that you get:

Open Bar, featuring Mardi Gras specialties, Hurricanes, etc.;

20 restaurants supplying their New Orleans specialties;

The Barbone Street Jazz Band with Howard Kadison subbing on drums, and All
Harrison subbing on trumpet, plus the usual suspects. Al and Howard spent
many years in New Orleans with the likes of Pet Fountain, Al Hirt, the
Riverboats etc. Both excellent jazz musicians who swing mightily. Rest of
band bios at http://www.barbonestreet.com

A venue reconfigured/decorated like the French Quarter;

Casino games of chance (may cost you if you don't win);

Beads. :-) VBG;

Dancing encouraged. Expected attendance 500.

Cheers,
Steve
