Come raise money for The Old Library Studios, a non-profit after-school program in the Hollywood District, for kids who want to write and record their own music.

One-hundred percent of your entry fee of $5-$20 (sliding scale) will go to directly to the program.  You will be able to win one of many fabulous prizes as you win your way toward our final table, which will be played on center stage, just like the World Series of Poker.  I will donate 10% of our sales this night directly to the program, so eat, drink and be merry!

The mission of Old Library Studio is to inspire and educate young  artists using the tools of digital technology. Old Library Studio is a unique music-technology classroom and recording studio for teens.  We work to ensure that teens from a broad range of musical and non- musical backgrounds can learn to compose and record their own music,  guided by staff and professional mentors. Every program we offer results in excellent new music written, performed and recorded by our students.

Since 2004 Old Library Studio has brought a cutting edge after school music program to Portland teens and established a reputation with  schools and alternative programs for engaging at-risk youth in  creative learning. Old Library Studio has been recognized for  artistic excellence by the Oregon Arts Commission, and our executive  director, Noah Kleiman was awarded the 2006 Skidmore Prize for work in the Arts.
 
We provide creative opportunities for teens which they don't find anywhere else.  Most music education programs concentrate on  instrumental or vocal instruction. Several otherwise traditional music programs provide limited music recording opportunities, but Old Library Studio is the only program which emphasizes individual musical creativity, over performance practice.  In essence, our students learn "what makes music tick", by actually creating real music themselves.

Old Library Studio fills a significant gap in our community by engaging teens, from all socio-economic quarters, in the creative process of music production and studio recording. Old Library Studio has a strong track record of successful partnerships with programs which serve at-risk teens. The impact our programs have on students can be profound. Students from Portland Night High School have found the motivation to finish their high school education, and turn their lives around.

Tight harmonies and a spirit of fun describe Wednesday night's show.  These ladies put on one heckuva show and their band is some of the swingingest cats around.

DIXIELAND JAM 8 pm $5

Let's welcome Phil back from Australia in style!  I'm a big fan of this music and I want you to be too. If it's your first time I will pay your cover!  Just use the code phrase, "I'm a friend of Mr. T's."

FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 28th
THE BUREAU OF STANDARDS BIG BAND 8 pm $10 / 10:30 $5

Forget about the dinner show.  It's sold out.  Still plenty of room for the late show which is being filmed for PDXposed, a local TV show.  These guys keep getting better and better.  Their show has got great music and a little schtick to tickle your funny bone.  It's worth 5 bucks just to hang out with their fans, who are the nicest people on Earth.

SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 29th
THE TONY STARLIGHT MUSIC & COMEDY SHOW 8 pm $10 / 10 pm $5

New musical director Craig Bidondo has brought some new energy to the show and some new material to boot.  Russell Gores and Arick Gouwerok are still the same old lovable rhythm section.  We always have a good time.  If you don't, we'll give you your money back and then slash your tires.
