Veteran's Park Rocks This Thursday


Drummer man Nick Ruggeri's latest project LaRue Boogaloo will be playing this Thursday at Veteran's Park one of the tiniest but liveliest parks in downtown Bethesda. If you are like me you might get lost in what is now the booming metropolis, but if this helps at all-you can see it from Tastee Diner. 

Here's the word from Nick:

"The band was started by Pete Ostle and myself. It is a soul jazz band in the vein of the 60s and 70s organ groove bands. The grooves are on the funky soul side and the horn melodies are straight ahead jazz lines. It's really fun groovy music. We have a lot of originals and fantastic arrangements of tunes by Paul Murtha, a national arranger/composer."
 
The line up:
Chris Watling - Tenor/Bari Sax
Vince McCool - Trumpet
Tim Ford - Organ/Keyboards
Dan Hovey - Guitar
Pete Ostle - Bass
Nick Ruggieri - Drums
Rob White - Congas/Percussion

The Time: 6-8 p.m.
The Cover Charge: Gratis
