Yay Darlene and Susan!!

I don't know how good bands play here at all. With the attitudes towards them, and the blatant displays of ambilvalence or boredom, who can freaking blame them??

Since there are so many blues bands in town that play almost nightly, why don't people just go there?

This little lady use to call the San Diego swing scene her home....danced to rock-a-billie, blues, etc. and actually still does.
She moved to LA, and the world became a better place for all of us to dance!
Alecia! Come Home!
OK, never mind....I'll move there!

When are YOU going to come out dancing, again, Nancy?

I've been out dancing.
Rally I have, rally!
Mostly western swing shows, that little joint out in La Mesa, guess I haven't been following the natural herd migrations

She's lying! She's in semi-retirement too!

So why do you semi-retired people read this forum? No offense or anything, I just always thought that as interest waned, the first thing to go would be reading a forum for the hard-core addicts.

I just got the coolest new Christmas swing songs to play at the Holiday party on the 21st at Champion. I'll also play some this Thursday at the Firehouse!

Ron - Mel and I got a Christmas CD from a guy who plays with Steve "Something" from LA. Apparently he's pretty big and the CD rocks. You'll have to check out the CD prior to playing at 3RD SAT SWINGS to see if you would like to play one or two.

See you later

Hello all! I'll be coming down for this tonight, need to get my fill of San Diego dancers ;) I might be needing a place to crash though, if anyone could help me out I'd appreciate it. I'll be seeing you guys tonight!

Fun night! Thanks Chance and Mel.

So nice to have Miriam and Natalie from Phoenix, as well as Haley (sp?)
Tampa, Florida. Dave from SF was a pretty cool Santa.

Thanks, Chistina, for the after hours "Breakfast and Blues" at your place.

What bands do we want? Hmm....I'm looking forward to hearing
Campus Five at the 3rd Saturday in February. I'm assuming that
Lavay, Casey MacGill, Bill Elliott, George Gee are out of our price
range? It would be fun to have a Steven Mitchell workshop again
and have his band play that Saturday night. I wonder if his band
is still playing at all. "Victrola" was awesome at the Austin Exchange.
Josh and the Feetwarmers are fantastic, but we'll be hearing them
soon again at the LA/OC exchange.

Barbara Morrison at our exchange will be unbelievable. So cool.
