Calendar

Thursday June 24, 2010 was a night at Ridglea that I will never forget: Victor Cager came out to party with me and was in RARE form.. Thank you Victor.

I look forward to my every date at Sushi Rock, the staff and ownership are very gracious and generous. It is like being in Japan again, where you are always treated like the most important person in the world. Americans really appreciate this kind of an atmosphere, you can tell when you walk in, it is always full of people enjoying themselves.

Sandra Kaye and Julie Bonk were the first to perform the Winery in 2003. Located on the northwest side of Fort Worth, The winery offers a destination suitable for many occasions, from an afternoon tasting, a relaxed lunch or fine dinner, to one of our very popular Jazz Sundays.

Like the great old clubs, both real and fictional, Scat Jazz Lounge has the vibe that only exists in our dreams or maybe the movies. Set in the basement of the historic Woolworth building, Scat carries on the New York tradition of the coolest clubs being underground and off the beaten. The idea was to create a club for adults. A place where you can enjoy a great cocktail while listening to some of the best music ever written. Proving that dark and swanky can also be comfortable, we’ve combined rich wood accents with deco curves and rich red curtain to make it easy on the eyes. There are no tv’s and no beer signs, just a great hideaway from every other place.

I am usually with the big band on the last Wednesday of the month and did not realize that I was on this gig. You should have seen the way I tore it down Dallas North Tollway because I thought I would be playing Sullivans and they had a surprise for me when I got there. Fortunately for me I was able to make the gig at Sandaga Market. Lou Marini was off the hook! So glad I made it.

I would like to thank everyone from the bottom of my heart who has come out week after week to support us in our big band project. The music has been BEAUTIFUL. We need your continuing support for our project. We have chosen to be there every LAST Wednesday night.

Sullivans is not only one of the most beautiful places in Dallas, it also serves very good food that you will come back again and again. I believe the reason for this is that Chef Kenny is so brilliant that he should have his own cooking show.

Curtis Bradshaw has done it again: Arranged the music, produced the concert and director of the orchestra.. Featuring Arlington Jones and Sandra Kaye

The Scat Jazz Lounge is a beautiful and classy place in Downtown Fort Worth. It is located in an ally right on Fourth Street between Houston and Main. It reminds me of a place in Spain with the same kind of vibe. The Scat Jazz Lounge is one of the few places in the metroplex that is perfect for jazz. No food just beer nuts and great drinks. So have your dinner at one of the many surrounding restaurants and make your way to The Scat Jazz Lounge. Be prepared for some great jazz with the best musicians in the metroplex who will accompany Sandra Kaye.

This was a wonderful service, Roger Boykin spoke and of course Herbie K. Johnson, we learned things about Fathead that was so nice to know. Fathead's sons and daughter-in-laws were all there and his son Cadino also sang a song right after me and he was wonderful. Cadino and I were classmates at Roosevelt. Oh, by the way, my song in the program was "God Bless The Child"

Going Home Ceremony of Colleen Lenora Young In Dallas, Texas

This gig was cancelled at a moments notice. We were all assembled when the mamager announced that the club could no longer afford a big band. Well, it takes special people with special commitments to keep a big band going. As it stands, the fee would certainly be affordable by one who is committed.
