Gonna be in Milwaukee for a few nights--any good spots to catch live horns during Tues.-Thurs. evenings? Thanks.

Here's one place to go check out:

http://www.allstarsuperband.com/index.htm

The Super Band is a rehearsal band that plays every Thursday night at Long Wongs (chinese restaraunt). Directions and times are on the website.

I'll do my best to find some other options for you.

Check out the website and dig the name of the guy listed first in the trumpet section.

From Fox Lake WI too!

I like it.

Thanks tons, lawler! You just made my Thursday evening...and for a good cause too!

You bet! Kaye is either grandson or nephew to Bunny Berigan, I believe. I hope I am right with this. He is certainly closely related to him. I've had the pleasure of playing a couple rehearsals with Kaye and it was great fun.

Oh, there are at least two other places for jazz in Milwaukee, the Jazz Estate and the Velvet Room. I did see Bryan Lynch and Conrad Herwig at the Estate and it was burning! The Estate has a website but their calendar is never up-to-date. The bigger acts are normally in on weekends. Also, the Velvet Lounge only has jazz on Fri and Sat.

Kaye Berigan is Bunny's nephew.

A guy from south Texas can drive to a club the day it snows, but the band CAN"T??? waaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

Hit LongWong's on Thursday and was informed the gig was cancelled bc of s-n-o-w! c'mon Milwaukee...you're supposed to be good at that stuff.

Oh well...that's what next times are for. Driving around town Thursday was really a blast--kinda like WSC Rally all day long! And I saw lightning during snow--very cool! Thanks again for the 411 Eric--you do have a great town!

Doug,

I guess you did observe one neat thing. Thundersnow doesn't happen very often. One of the TV weather ladies here said she's seen it 4 times in her life. It was pretty cool watching all of the quick weather changes when I was at work during the day. Hopefully you'll have better luck with music next time you visit.
