Joe Vento's Wednesday show rocks... if that's the right word for an 18-piece band playing "Li'l Darling" and "In the Mood". The crowd ranged in age from couples who probably actually danced to Dorsey and Miller's bands to twentysomethings who just stopped in for a drink and stayed for the performance. The all-star musicians are all-volunteer-- a mix of session players, students, even an investment banker, who show up every week out of love for this musical form. Vento (who must be close to eighty) has the energy and enthusiasm of an eighteen year old. He's a charming and funny host who keeps the set bouncing for nearly two hours, Go see this show!
