Welcome addition to AWA this year and nice alternative to the seizure inducing rave.
Perhaps instead of selling glowsticks we can sell packs of candy cigarettes?
| Quote: | Please join us late Saturday Sept. 24th for a new event at AWA: the Cowboy Bebop Lounge.
We will be presenting an evening full of the music that inspired the writers and artists behind the hit show. Come and listen to classic Bebop recordings from the legends like Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Coleman Hawkins, Miles Davis, and Dexter Gordon.
This will be an alternative to the high energy dance events also running Saturday night.
The Lounge is scheduled to start around 11pm in the VAT room (the Habersham Ballroom) and run till the kick us out!
From the Wikipedia online encyclopedia:
Bebop differed drastically from the highly organized compositions and “solid, yet springing 4/4 propulsion” of the swing era, and was instead characterized by fast tempos, complex harmonies, intricate melodies, and rhythm sections that laid down a steady beat only on the bass and the drummer’s ride cymbal (Rosenthal 12). The music itself was jarringly different to the ears of the public, who were used to the bouncy, organized, danceable tunes of those like Benny Goodman and Glenn Miller during the swing era. Instead, bebop appeared to sound racing, nervous, and often fragmented.
Of course, we might throw on a little swing music for those interested in cutting a rug.
There is no Dress Code, but 1940’s and 50’s wear is appropriate (as of course Cowboy Bebop Cosplay). Get yourself togged to the bricks and we will provide the mezz riffs to wig to.

Thank you. Gimme some 7/4... Ugh. Anybody know if you need to be 18 in order to get in to that thing? I'm trying to figure out if I'm going to get permission to stay in either the RW or the Hotel across the street. |

All ages, I'm sure. Really, the only time they check IDs is when you're trying to get into one of the "Y A O I" video rooms... erm...  at least... that's what Gaaz tells me.
