Burgh Blues is moving our monthly Live Blues dance from the last Friday of the month to the second Friday, and changed the location to the Bulgarian Macedonian Cultural Center(BMNECC) in Homstead (just past the Waterfront Shopping Center).
We're making the change for several reasons: first and foremost, the new hall is a great venue for blues and for dancing. The hall is a traditional Pittsbugh "club" - the type of venue where great blues and jazz have been played in Pittsburgh for decades. The floor is excellent and the feel is "funky". The club already plays host to Cajun, Zydeco and Salsa dances so many of you are already familiar with it. There is a full bar available. There is adequate parking nearby, including the Borough/Police Station lot accross the street.
Furthermore, we can move the dance up to the more "traditional" time of 9:00 til Midnight, and the preceding lesson can be held in the main hall, making much more room available for instruction.
