My favorite Tennessee swing band and my favorite craft beers are coming together for the first time on the night of May 12th! The Avondale Brewing Company opened for business towards the end of last year, and upstairs they have a beautiful 3,000 square foot WOODEN floor in a historically restored building with exposed brick walls and cool city views.
Location:
Avondale Brewing Company · 201 41st Street South · Birmingham, AL 35222
The band has been a highlight of the Huntsville night scene for many years. Rudy, who sang with the Drifters at one time, along with Emily Moore give performances that are professional, nostalgic, full of energy and unsurpassed in quality. They keep the dance floor hopping with classic rock, R& and current hits.

Repeats every 50 years until Thu Dec 31 2015 . Also includes Fri Apr 27 2012, Fri May 25 2012.

Now here's a special one! Solomon Douglas is coming through Birmingham! As everyone knows, Solomon's a tough guy to get w/o a $100 ticket to an exchange or workshop. The opportunity to see him at a place like the VFW in Birmingham is a once a year thing! Solomon is a dancer, composer, and musician. He knows his stuff in ways most of us have yet to understand. He. Will. Do. You. Right!
Also, if you're new to dance, this is a fun place to get started. You can hit up the beginner lesson at 7 with the dancing starting at 7:30.

What a Dance! We PACKED the monkey! We had people that had danced for years and people who were just starting! We had High School students and college students. We had young professionals and retirees. We had the Huntsville crowd as well as people from Nashville, Birmingham, Memphis, Knoxville, Atlanta, and Auburn! The only problem the whole night was finding space on the dance floor!
