Swing Time Newsletter — Tuesday APRIL 28th 2015
This Wednesday April 29th, Keith Jones & the Makeshifts play the Gulfport Casino Swing Night! One of the best groups to ever play the Gulfport Casino, this Ohio band swings hot jump-blues and traditional rock'n'roll for your dancing pleasure. The evening starts with an Advancing-Your-Swing Dance Lesson 6-7pm, followed by Swing Dance Lesson 7-8pm, then Live Music & Dancing 8-11pm. Admission is just $12 (no free passes or student specials accepted on band nights); get your tickets at the door. Making their third appearance at the Gulfport Casino Swing Night, Keith Jones & the Makeshifts were a huge hit with dancers when they played for us before. In fact, last year, they helped set a new Wednesday Swing Night attendance record!
