The Buzzards will be playing at the Moose Lodge this evening.

Shannon and John will teach a beginner East Coast lesson at 7:30PM to get you on the floor. At 8PM the band will be playing some of their great rockabilly swing.

Band: The Buzzards

image

From the Buzzards web site....

The Buzzards are a rockabilly band out of Long Island.

Besides inciting riotous mayhem and general debauchery (not to mention occasional nudity), the Buzzards have performed at every rockabilly hot spot, including the Rodeo Bar in Manhattan and the Blue Comet just outside of Philly.

They are the house band at the Bayou in Long Island and performed at the Gold Coast Casino in Las Vegas for the Viva Las Vegas Rockabilly Weekend four years in a row. They were rewarded with a standing ovation each year.  They have performed at the Indy Rockabilly Rebel Weekend, the Heavey Rebel Weekender in North Carolina, and Rock n Rods in Philly.  They performed for the Rockabilly Hall of Fame many times, most notably at the 50th anniversary of Elvis Presley’s first sold out concert, in Memphis, TN. 

They are the band of choice to open for national acts and received outstanding praise for their performance with the great Scotty Moore. Scotty even came out to the diner with the Buzzards after the show.

The Buzzards’ CD, “The Grand Buffet,” is still available.

Tuesday, Aug 29, 2017 • 5th Tuesday Swing Dance • SDLI

Posted by John on 08/27/2017 • Permalink


On the 5th Tuesday of the month we like to expand our horizons.  This month we’re going to teach the Jitterbug Stroll at the 7:30 lesson.  Jitterbug Stroll Demo

We had originally planned to teach the Shim Sham but our instructor isn’t available this month.  We will reschedule the Shim Sham lesson for later in the year.  Variations of the Shim Sham started in the 1930’s involving complex tap steps.  In the 1980s, Frankie Manning created a version of the Shim Sham for swing dancers.  If you travel around the world, you’ll find swing dancers doing Frankie’s Shim Sham.  Click here for a YouTube preview of Frankie Manning and Erin Stevens doing the Shim Sham
