Dear Swing City Patrons!
This
Week at Swing City: "Sweet Willie D. and the Continental
Walk " at Somerville City Club!
Returning for his second gig in 2010 with us, since
a health situation forced him to take a two year break
from music, the ever popular and long time Swing City
favortite "Sweet Willie D. and the Continental
Walk" performs this Friday for you! Count on some
seriously swinging blusey tunes all night, with some
of Boston's most famous professional talent.
So... This Friday, see you at the Somerville
City Club, COLD AC, free lot parking, full bar, snacks,
lessons at 7:45 (read on). Come join us, meet some new
people, get some exercise, make some new friends, have
a great time!
New!
NEXT WEEK, Slow-Dance Class Series Starts at Swing City
from 7-8pm
Starting next week, Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers
impersonator (well, almost...!) JJ Williams is introducing
a new series of slow dances at Swing City. He will be
teaching you Schmooze and various other types of slow
dancing like Waltz and Foxtrot. Join us and learn some
other styles and expand your dance repertoire!
The regular Swing Dance lessons will start promptly
at 8pm and end at 9pm starting next week (which is what
they've been doing anyway on account of people trickling
in).
Admission is still only $15 for the whole night.
Beginner
and Intermediate Swing Dance lessons at Swing City
New to Swing Dancing or already an expert? No worries,
we've got something for everyone!
Mike Jonas will be teaching the intermediate
lesson this week and DJing the breaks for you. Karen
Leeds returns to teach the beginner class. Both are
at 7:45. Classes have been HUGE lately, so be sure to
come for those. Beginner and intermediate levels are
concurrent, so you can find a class that suits you and
still bring your friends who might be at a different
level. Plus, the classes are a GREAT way to meet people
if you're new to the scene.
Swing City, the best weekly Swingin' venues in town!
- Tons of free parking
- Ice Cold Air Conditioning
- Full Bar, ~$4 cocktails (at City Club venue only)
- Great Floors (one patron was giddy with excitement
recently! thx)
- Easy "T" Access (at City Club venue only)
7:30pm: Beginner and Intermediate
Swing Dance Lessons, no partner necessary.
9:00pm: Band goes on (DJ in the breaks)
until ~12:00am or when people leave
The great thing about the new intermediate lessons
program is that the bulk of our regular dancers will
be able to take a non-beginner class with our
rotation of Boston's top dance instructors, while still
being able to bring beginner friends for the intro lesson.
The intro class will be single step East Coast, while
the intermediate class will be taught in triple-step
and sometimes will include some Lindy and more. The
intermediate class will be different each week. Furthermore,
if either lesson is too hard or simple for you, one
can just switch to the other one as needed.
So please join us for lessons, a night of rich live
music, dancing, affordable cocktails when we're at the
City Club (yes, $4!), lots of cool fun people of all
ages, and some great exercise. Bottom line, a great
night out for only $15 ($10 with college ID), the cheapest
cocktails in town, and a super vibe! Read, "Boston's
official Cheap Date."
