First off, a big thank you to Sean Piccoli and the Sun-Sentinel for linking to BWJAZZANDBLUES.BLOGSPOT.COM. Please feel free to browse; we've got something for listeners of both kinds of music, you know, jazz AND blues.
If you're looking for something to do on this rainy Wednesday night, head for Capone's Flickerlite, as one Hollywood institution hosts a couple of other Hollywood institutions, namely Michael Locke and "One Night Stan" Waldman (both of whom, incidentally, should be institutionalized).
Longtime South Florida blues fans might recognize bandanna-sporting string-bender Locke and sax-blowing hipster Waldman from their band The Nightstalkers. Locke is a flame-throwing axman who never met a volume knob he couldn't coax past 11. Waldman, who operated the very-much-missed Hollywood nightspot One Night Stan's, boasts a big gritty sound inspired by greats such as Sonny Stitt and Gene Ammons. Currently living in Southwest Ohio, Locke is finishing up the last leg of a Florida tour. Expect plenty of barbecued, Texas-style blues, as well as some jump-swing and Chicago shuffle, when the pair reunite from 8 p.m. to midnight at the Hollywood pizza place on the Intracoastal.
Owned and operated by the Capone family for more than 60 years, the Flickerlite makes a great pie and probably the best Italian beef sandwich I've had outside of Chicago. It's located at 1014 N. Ocean Drive. Call 954-922-4232 or visit Flickerlite.com.
