**Instagram: @parkofpartyroom** Hi everyone! I’m a Korean living in Daejeon (originally from Daegu), and I’ve been here for about 5 years. As you probably know, Daejeon can feel pretty quiet socially, so I’m organizing a **casual international BYOB party** at a private party room I run in **Dunsan-dong**. The goal is simple: meet new people, talk, drink, eat, and just enjoy the night together. **Details:** 📍 Location: Dunsan-dong, Daejeon 🍺 BYOB & feel free to bring food 🌍 Foreigners & Koreans welcome 🏠 Very casual, house-party style 🌙 Stay late — even until morning if you want I’m thinking of a **small ₩10,000 fee** per person just to cover the space. The space is already set up, so dates are flexible depending on interest. If you’re interested, feel free to comment or DM me 😊 Even if parties aren’t really your thing, I’m always happy to meet new people — making friends in Daejeon isn’t easy 😅 *** **Also — one more thing!** A few people messaged me about the party, so I wanted to add this. I’m looking for **one or two people who’d like to help co-host** — mainly welcoming guests, helping people mingle, and just being part of the vibe. This is **not a job**, just a fun, social role. ✨ Free entry ✨ We can figure things out together If you’re outgoing and enjoy meeting new people, feel free to DM me!

The Palm Court Jazz Café was a New Orleans fine dining and traditional jazz institution for 35 years, and its heart lives on! One of the few New Orleans traditional jazz institutions that also offered fine dining was the Palm Court Jazz Café. For 35 years, it offerred live jazz 5 nights a week featuring the city's finest musicians. Nina Buck, proprietress, and her husband George provideda home for both musicians and music enthusiasts alike. Learn more about the restaurant and jazz club and about the band that continues to honor the club's legacy - The Pal Court Jazz Band. Craig Klein is born and bred New Orleans and has constantly been exposed to a diverse mixture of music cultures. As a high school trombone player hanging around the French Quarter his love of New Orleans music was solidified when he stumbled upon Preservation Hall in the mid 70’s. He chased the New Orleans sound all around town. In 1980, his trombone playing Uncle Gerry Dallmann invited him to parade around the Quarter with a funky street band called The Pair-A-Dice Tumblers. That experience led him to become a founding member of two prominent brass bands, The Storyville Stompers (1981) and later The New Orleans NightCrawlers (1994) . . . . . Craig and Uncle Gerry still play a lot of music together to this very day! In 1990, he received a call that concluded with an audition over the phone that landed him a gig with Harry Connick, Jr. This 16-year journey led to many recordings and world tours. In 1998, while on tour with Harry in New York, Craig was out enjoying the city and heard a Latin/Salsa band with 5 trombones . . . . That night he had a dream to put a New Orleans band together featuring lots of trombones. He approached his Harry Connick band mate and fellow New Orleanian, Mark Mullins about the idea. In 2006 Craig left Harry to focus on Bonerama and touring. The rest is Bonerama history. Craig also became a founding member of the New Orleans Nightcrawlers brass band. The band started out as a writer’s “workshop” and was an occasion for the musicians to get together and rehearse newly written music. Made up of some of the top musicians in New Orleans, the band build up a repertoire of tunes and made their first recording in 1996 with Rounder Records. The band now has five exceptional records and in April 2020 their album, ATMOSPHERE, won a Grammy in Best Regional Roots Album category. Craig's latest solo record was recorded in December of 2020 and was partly funded from a grant by the Threadhead Cultural Foundation. The recordings were meant to be a two-trombone gospel production featuring Lucien Barbarin and Craig with a rhythm section. Craig and Lu were already in preproduction of the recording when prostate cancer took Lucien away in January 2020. Wanting to continue the work Craig decided to make a tribute record for one of his best friends and greatest influences. Being inspired by a Dickey Wells and Rex Stewart record, Talkative Horns - Musical Conversations On Lucien Barbarin was produced. A tribute to a dear friend, great trombonist and entertainer. Every song on the record has a direct connection to Lucien. Craig has a vast musical experience and has played on well over 150 records, including his first solo record, New Orleans Trombonisms (2004). He has played with the best: Dr. John, The Neville Brothers, George Porter, Leroy Jones, Tori Amos, Dave Bartholomew, REM, Allen Toussaint, Preservation Hall, The Palm Court Jazz Band, The Jazz Vipers, Bruce Hornsby, Storyville Stompers, New Orleans Nightcrawlers . . . just to name a few! Don't miss your chance to hear Craig speak about The Palm Court Jazz Cafe. He feels the spirit of the music and he brings with him a real New Orleans vibe to all he does.
