SUMMARY:November DCLXtra with Drew Nugent and the Midnight Society
DESCRIPTION:November DCLXtra with Drew Nugent and the Midnight Society\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Drew Nugent and the Midnight Society\n\n\n\n\nDrew Nugent is a jazz musician and composer from Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania. His primary instruments are piano\, trumpet\, voice\, and\, believe it or not\, the tea kettle! Nugent and the band specialize in playing in the traditional “hot” jazz style of the 1920s. His band\, known as the Midnight Society\, is regarded as one of the best in the business and has been together for over 10 years. \n\n\n\nUnder Drew’s leadership\, they bring forth an authentic\, yet original approach to an art form over 100 years old. Nugent’s inspiration comes from a who’s who list of great performers\, composers\, and musicians\, both obscure and known\, going back a full century.  \n\n\n\nAlthough a lot of this music may seem forgotten in many circles\, it is alive and well with Drew Nugent and the Midnight Society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for the DCLXtra\n\n\n\n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDCLX could not happen without the help of our volunteers.

The musicianship is of the highest caliber. Bandleader Craig Gildner handpicked each and every section from DC’s pool of talented musicians. The band can whisper and scream…and everything in between…all in just one song! \n\n\n\n\nMore about Craig\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPricing\n\n\n\n$25 (Advance Purchase)$30 (At the Door; after 7pm)$15 (Students & Military) \n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n\n\n\n8:00pm – 9:00pm: Introductory Lindy Hop Lesson (no partner needed; lesson included in admission price!)\n\n\n\n9:00pm – 12:00am: Swing Dancing to excellent live music\n\n\n\n\nInstructors and DJ will be announced soon. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister for the DCLXtra\n\n\n\n      \n        \n      \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWe’re looking for volunteers\n\n\n\nDCLX could not happen without the help of our volunteers.
