Happy Hour

**A new format: you choose who you're interested in meeting** This meetup is about getting to know new people and sharing the experience in a small group (3-6 people). *We use the LYTT platform to handle group size and balance - so you're not just hoping someone interesting shows up.* To apply you will need to create an account at [lytt.me](https://lytt.me/meetup/jazz-night-rex) \- it's free\. **The event: Bebop & Standards at Toronto's Jazz Institution** The Rex has been Toronto's jazz institution since 1951. The intimate upstairs room fits 60 people max - candlelit tables, craft cocktails, and musicians close enough to see the sweat on their brows during a solo. Thursday nights bring bebop and standards from some of the city's best players. Two 45-minute sets with a break in between - perfect for catching up with your crew, debating whether that bass solo was genius or showing off, and ordering another round. This isn't background music. This is sit-down, listen-up jazz from people who've dedicated their lives to it. The whole experience runs about 3 hours. **The group: LYTT platform** LYTT forms small groups for events and activities you pick. 1\. Click 'Attend' here on Meetup\, then head to [lytt.me](https://lytt.me/meetup/jazz-night-rex) to create a quick profile (photo, a few interests, short bio) 2\. Browse others who applied and select who you'd want to meet 3\. We form groups where the interest is mutual 4\. You get notified when your group is confirmed \- payment happens then 5\. Show up knowing your crew already picked you \- *but no one knows who picked who*, to keep mystery and low pressure Applying doesn't guarantee a spot - but we may form multiple groups or invite you to similar events with other crews. **What's included:** \- Entry to the upstairs jazz room \- Two 45\-minute sets from world\-class musicians \- Set break for conversation and connection **Details:** **Cost:** $25 CAD. Drinks separate ($12-16 cocktails, $8-10 beer). **Group size:** 4-6 people **Location:** The Rex Hotel Jazz & Blues Bar, 194 Queen St W, Toronto **Who this is for:** \- 27\-40ish\, give or take \- People who love live jazz \- Those who want intimate performances\, not background noise \- Looking for friends\, dates\, or just better ways to spend an evening **Questions?** hey@lytt.me **Proceed to register here:** [https://lytt.me/meetup/jazz-night-rex](https://lytt.me/meetup/jazz-night-rex)

No shows and less than 48 hours notice of non-attendance will be noted. 2 or more such occurrences will unfortunately lead to removal from the group.

*Happy Hour fans?* Each month, our group is going to try to meet at some of the best happy hours around town! This month, let's meet for drinks and small bites at **[Rail Craft Kitchen](https://www.railcraftkitchen.com/menu?menu=happy-hour#1)** in Dublin on Frantz Road. *Happy Hour is 3-6pm weekdays*.

The casual atmosphere of happy hour encourages conversation, making it easier to bond over shared interests and experiences.
