DanceDemon - Feb 27th
The Scottish Godfather of Blues
FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY!

This is going to be one hell of a Blues night! After the amazing reception he had last time, and the masses of feedback we had requesting more, we are bringing DanceDemon all the way down from Scotland to play an exclusive set for you all at Stokie's.

DJ DanceDemon

DanceDemon is heading down from Scotland for ONE NIGHT to play an exclusive set for us! Don't miss this rare opportunity to soak your soul in exquisite Blues music carefully selected by The Scottish Godfather of Blues. Because of his diary commitments this may be the only time DanceDemon plays at Stokie's in 2010! DanceDemon is exceptional because of his ability to read the dance floor, his matchless creativity and his enviable collection of Blues music. This guy really does elevate Blues DJ'ing to another level.

We have strictly limited single ladies tickets available for this night online now so please book early to avoid disappointment. Better still, if you can find a guy to book on with you can come in on a couples' ticket freeing up a single lady place for the girls who are unable to find a guy to book with

Confessin' the Blues

We were delighted to get a mention on Confessing the Blues (CTB #4). We would like to reitterate the offer to any American Blues dancers that find themselves in the UK. Come to Stokie's with your American passport and mention the Confessing the Blues podcast will give you FREE entry
