Come join us for an evening of jazz at our Beatnik Jazz Club!

We have a lovely club that's a perfect place for friends to gather!

What is 'beatnik jazz?'

It's what's known as 'bebop,' or modern jazz, that evolved in the early to mid 40s as a rebellious reaction to the big swing band's rigid, stifled structure.

Jazz artists from the period included Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk, Max Roach, and others.

Allen Ginsberg, Jack Kerouac, and William S. Burroughs were popular writers in the 50s and 60s who were influenced by the bepop jazz style.

So, come and listen to the music, share some of your favorite poetry, sip some drinks, and enjoy food with good friends!

Here's Ten Cool Things About Doctor Who That You May Not Know:

1. There have been 884 Doctor Who episodes as of the end of 2024.
2. Nineteen actors have played The Doctor. There have been fifteen officially numbered doctors but the alternative versions bring the total to nineteen.

3. The first Doctor's health problems led to the regeneration concept in the story.

4. The 4th Doctor (Tom Baker) was the longest-serving doctor for seven years and 172 episodes.

5. David Tennant, the 10th and the 14th doctor in the rebooted series, was the second longest-serving doctor for six years and 47 episodes.

6. David Tennant was inspired to become an actor by the 4th Doctor, Tom Baker. David's goal was to star in Doctor Who.

7. The 11th doctor, Matt Smith's, look created a huge demand for bow ties.

9. TARDIS and Dalek were both added to the Oxford English Dictionary.

10. Douglas Adams, the British Sci-Fi author who wrote the iconic novel "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy," wrote a few of the Doctor Who episodes.
