For our October Cambie meetup, we'll be checking out Kathleen Nisbet and The Partytimers. They've played the Cambie before (and many other venues) but I haven't been able to find a public video link yet. However, based on other sources, I'm confident this will be a good dancing and listening time. :)

The Cambie's blurb describes them this way: "The Party Timers are an all-star rockabilly band featuring five of Vancouver's finest roots musicians paying tribute to the legendary Wanda Jackson. (See also this old B&W TV clip of Wanda Jackson.) "With upright bass, stand-up drums, blazing guitar and killer harmonies, The Party Timers will get the party started with your favourite hits and forgotten classics from the Queen of Rockabilly and beyond."
FEATURING: Jody Peck - guitar; Kathleen Nisbet - upright bass, fiddle, Jodie Ponto - drums; Noah Walker & Steve Charles - guitarmonies."

I have three tables (20 seats) reserved for 6pm, a start time that is meant to give us an opportunity to socialize before the first of three music sets starts at 7.

Please note: This is not a drop-in event. RSVPing "yes" is a commitment to be there when the reservation starts at 6pm. After 6:30, I'll allow The Cambie to use any of our unfilled spaces to seat other customers.

However, it's totally fine to leave earlier than 10pm, which is when the music typically ends.

Also note: This will likely be the only Cambie meetup in October, with another one following in late November.

Here's where you can peruse the Cambie's budget-friendly happy hour menu (available till 9pm).
