The Wolverine Jazz Band played to a capacity crowd at the Sherborn Inn on Tuesday, February 28th, playing upbeat jazz the whole night, from beginning to end.

They started with a lively My Blue Heaven, and did it perfectly. Everything sparked, and it took off from there

Trombonist Tom Boates was in a playful mood all night long, with his raucus, growling trombone.  The highlight was his scatting with Jimmy Mazzy.  Didriksen was beside himself, smiling all the while, playing a solid beat.

John Clark announced Dave's engagement  to his lady friend Cathy.  The band had planned a slow song, then an upbeat tune for the Finale, but reversed it to a sizzling Swing That Music, then Trombonist Boates took over the drums for an emotional and warm Memories, so Dave and Cathy could dance.

 It was a sparkling evening, from beginning to end.

Congratulations, Dave and Cathy!  Live a long and happy life!
