Dance Til You Drop Or Until You Trip Over Your Feet & Fall Down

David Kaye presents another maddening show -- maddening if you happen
to miss it and your friends tell you how awesome it was. Well, this
time don't miss it! It will be awesome. Why? Because it's a dance
and it's got two bands who play incredible music -- one brass band
and one string band.

What? You don't know how to rembetika? You haven't kolo'd in your
life? Don't worry. The hash smokers who invented some of this stuff
probably didn't dance any better than you.

=> BRASS MENAGERIE BALKAN BRASS BAND
The hit Balkan dance band is here to brass you out! Yes, you've
danced to them at the Kolo Festival. You probably know some of them
from the Balkan Music & Dance Camp. Maybe not. Maybe you're just
experiencing these guys for the first time. Well, IMMERSE YOURSELF
in some incredible brass band music, unlike any you've heard (unless
you hang out in Bulgaria). Website: www.huzzam.com/brass

=> DISCIPLES OF MARKOS GREEK REMBETICA BAND
The Disciples of Markos play Rebetika, the music of the hashish dens
of 1930's Greek underworld. Rebetika was music of outsiders,
gangster, dopeheads, whores and other shady characters who would hang
out at the "tekes", the small music cafes where they could smoke the
hookah, drink ouzo and forget their troubles. The Disciples take
their name and inspiration from Markos Vamvakaris, the most famous
singer, songwriter and the heaviest, most stoned-out bouzouki player
of the thirties.Disciples of markos website: http://
