Think FLOWER POWER as you bring your spring with you by wearing SPRING-colored and flower-inspired outfits!
This
"Spring Shingaling" edition of FLAME will double as the celebration of
a decade (+ 1) of DJ Action Slacks-produced dance parties at the Kenton
Club! I missed my 10 year KC anniversary last May so I'm celebrating
it this year. I threw my first dance party at the Kenton Club in May
2013. Now 70ish events later I feel as if a part of me has become
ingrained into those 1940s redwood walls.
Also
included during this event - the Dance Hall of Flame inductions of a
few music-makers I associate with the sounds of Spring. Their songs are
like a melodious "miracle grow", sending our hearts into bloom. Ok,
perhaps the language is a little flowery. In all sincerity, this music
makes my heart come alive, and I hope it will do the same for you : Mary
Wells, Joe Cuba, Tamiko Jones, Huey "Piano" Smith, Yvonne Baker &
the Sensations, and The Chambers Brothers!
Arrive with an open mind, open heart, and openness to learning WHILE having fun.
8 pm - 10pm will be mostly 1950s & 1960s music
10pm to Midnight will be mostly 1960s & 1970s music
10pm to Midnight will be mostly 1960s & 1970s music

Like
most of my dance parties, this party is open to all kind-hearted
people, but is geared toward the Portland LGBTQmunity & its allies.
