AYARS TIMES TWO 7:30 $5
"Bo Ayars is a master accompanist. His years spent arranging and conducting an orchestra
manifest in the orchestral sound he achieves - not with 88 instruments, but with
88 keys. Barbara Ayars is my favorite singer. Barbara shows us the slight distinctions
among joy, mirth, and contentment. Fear, anger and pain. Love, lust and infatuation.
The subtle differences between wistful reminiscence, immature pining and wise melancholy.
As performers, they are in tune with the audience and the room becomes their living
room." Tony Starlight February 2008" -Excerpted from the liner notes of their CD
"Ayars Times Two: Live at Tony Starlight's"

TONY STARLIGHT SHOW 8 PM $10 / 10:30 $5
Back after two weeks off! The Tony Starlight Show is like nothing else. Swinging standards, parody songs,
impressions, audience participation, tight pants and phony mustaches. I don't know
what else you could want. The first show is slick and rehearsed. The late show
is anything goes. Featuring Reece Marshburn on piano, Arick Gouwerok on bass and
Russell Gores on drums.
