Hard to believe it’s been nine years since our first Boogie Woogie Blues Piano Stomp. And it is always a favorite with Palladium audiences.
Liz Pennock brought me the idea for the Stomp and has been our talent coordinator for all the shows.
Tonight she and her musical and life partner, Dr. Blues, will be making an appearance on Larry Lisk’s Mo Blues Monday show on WMNF talking up the Stomp and offering some ticket giveaways. That show starts at 6 p.m. at 88.5 FM or WMNF.org.
In case you don’t win tickets, you can order them online by following this link, or call our box office at 727-822-3590.
