Phil Ogilvie's Rhythm Kings starting new Sunday gig at Live at PJ's
The Sunday evening swing concerts by local jazz band Phil Ogilvie's Rhythm Kings are moving to Live at PJ's, a nightclub at 102 S. First St. (at the corner of Huron), starting this Sunday, Oct. 18, from 5-8 p.m.
Listening, dining and dancing are all promised to be offered at Live at PJ's. Admission to the sessions remains what it was at the Firefly: $7 general admission and $5 for seniors and students. There will again be a one-drink minimum. Free parking (on Sundays) is available in a municipal lot just across First Street. An initial four-Sunday residency is planned for the band, with possible alterations after that point.
For those who haven't heard them, Phil Ogilvie's Rhythm Kings are a crack ensemble playing in the style of the great 1920s and 1930s dance bands, using those bands' original arrangements. Their regular Sunday gig at the Firefly Club had a devoted following.
