Nitwitboy needs his Jazz

[Nitwitboy]

Are there any Jazz clubs in Dallas you really enjoy. I am looking for a place that is always Jazz or Blues, not like Sambuca and where I can find cigar smoke filling the room, primarily dark and large round booths in a corner. The best jazz clubs I know of in Los Angeles are in bad neighborhoods, so I am not opposed to that. I am looking more towards a Miles Davis atmosphere or Wes Montgomery vs. Kenny G or Spyro Gyra. I want one of those places where I show up, and much like the movie 48hrs, the entire place stops because a white guy came in.

You won't be the only white person, sorry, but this is by far my favorite place to go when I am on that side of town visiting friends and family:

*Edit...oops, you said Dallas. My bad! You should still go though

I like Brooklyn Jazz Cafe on Lamar in Dallas:

Thanks Dannie, both are not that far for the right experience. I appreciate it.

This Thursday at Scat Jazz Lounge there is a Miles Davis tribute. I went for my B-Day this year and saw the same show, it was GREAT. You'll love it!!!

Awesome Dannie> I appreciate the info. Got your PM as well. Nitwitboy will be in the corner, big cigar and a double scotch.

You might give Buttons a try. They've been in business in Ft Worth and just last weekend opened their new club in Addison in the space formerly occupied by Sambuca on Addison Rd.
