Jazz Ensemble gig at Dazzle on 2/13/17

Here is the information from the Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra about our LHS Jazz Ensemble gig at Dazzle's Restaurant on Monday evening, February 13th.  The times and ticket information for this performance are in this email.  

Please make sure that your family, friends and relatives know about this information so that they can come and see, support and enjoy your performance at this Denver jazz venue.


School: Littleton HS (Dir: Don Emmons)

We’re looking forward to featuring your group on Monday Feb . 13th 2017 at Dazzle!!  Here is a couple logistic issues as the date rapidly approaches.

1.  Time:  You start at 7p, play for 45min, short break, MJO plays until approximately 9p. We suggest that you arrive around 6p for a leisurely set-up and warm-up.

2.  Parking:  Parking is tough so any carpooling is a great idea. Here is a link to Dazzle’s parking page:  Dazzle parking information

3.  Tickets:  We use an on-line registration system. Below is a link to the registration page. Please have parents/friends go to this page to get their reservations (“registration”) using PayPal.  I will send Dazzle a list of all registrations before the gig.  Physical tickets are not required. Please DO NOT call Dazzle directly (as this will cause confusion with duplicate reservations).

Ticket are $12.50 (pre-show via the link below) and $15 at the door. Obviously, the incentive to get reservations ahead of time is to save $$. We will split the total pre-show ticket sales (after PayPal expenses) with MJO taking the first $400. I will bring you a check to the gig as ticket sales CLOSE Monday AM the day of the gig. Please stress to the students/families NOT to wait until the last moment to get their reservations; depending on what is going on the day of the gig, sales may close early in the day.

IMPORTANT: Please tell families that IF they do not receive a confirmation e-mail after registering, their registration probably did NOT complete and they do NOT have tickets. Have them contact me if they are unable to get the process completed.

We can sell approximately (80-85) seats ahead of time and leave the remaining (10+) for walk-ins and other reservations. It is very important to use this system vice just coming to pay at the door for a few reasons:

1.  It allows Dazzle to plan their staffing.
2.  It allows Dazzle to plan the seating, especially for the larger groups that want to sit together.
3.  If they just come to the door, it IS possible (and HAS happened) that between the school and non-school reservations, the room is full and they cannot get in!
4.  It’s cheaper!

*** Students/Director do NOT need tickets. ***
