[Dixielandjazz] Nick Polites' 80th

[jsbarque at netscape.net]

Many listmates would know Nick from his trips to New Orleans and more 
recently around European festivals with the Louisiana Shakers 
http://www.louisianashakers.com/

Nick's birthday was marked by a big assembly of friends and family at 
the Shakers' regular gig at the Renown Hotel in Fitzroy last Sunday. 
Sitting in were local musicians known for playing in the New Orleans 
style as well as other kinds of OKOM. Nick hasn't lost any of the energy 
in his playing.

A good venue if you are visiting Melbourne
