UNCLE SAMS JAZZ AND BLUES @ THE HAGGERSTON

About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Welcome to Uncle Sam's Jazz and Blues @ the Haggerston (formerly known as Uncle Sam's) the Original L8 Sunday nite Jazz gig Jam ceased in October 07 when Ms Ivory took the money and ran, but since June 08 Alan Weekes and his Quartet have returned and with the new decor and DJs and free entrance the Sunday Service is back in full swing, so if you have been @ a loss for something to do on a sunday nite Uncle Sam's Jazz and Blues @ the HAGGERSTON is the place to be
