This evening, the wonderful Peaches O'Dell and her Orchestra will be for a swing dance at Glen Echo Park, and you can bet your bottom dollar that I'll be there!! For those of you in the DC area reading this, if you haven't seen Peaches O'Dell perform, you really owe it to yourself to be there. Peaches is sorta a modern day, female Cab Calloway of sorts. She plays the famous Big Band swing songs, but adds a whole lotta showmanship and panache to the experience. So, whether you're boogie-ing on the dance floor or taking a break and just watching, you're guaranteed to be entertained!
For those of you who are saying you can't dance, there's a beginning swing dance lesson from 8:00 - 9:00 pm, before the dance starts at 9:00 pm., so there's NO EXCUSE!! In addition to just being a lot of fun, it's also pretty inexpensive -- where else can you spend an evening with live music for only $13?!
If you've got questions, leave me a comment; otherwise, I'll see you there!
