Return to NJJS

Wednesday, August 18, 8 PM. Ragtime raconteur Bob Milne plays several styles with a powerful left hand: ragtime, stride and boogie woogie. His delightful stories and historical asides are as popular with fans as his piano expertise. Averaging about 250 gigs a year gives him ample opportunity to polish his skills, and he can actually play for days at a time without repeating any tunes. Bob has played huge amphitheaters — even an aircraft carrier — but in the intimacy of Manicini Hall he will offer piano in-the-round, remaining literally within reach of his audience.




This series is temporarily quartered at the Toms River Library building while its home at Ocean County College is under renovation. It's less than a mile from Parkway exit 81; directions below. Request tickets, directions from the OCC Box Office at (732) 255-0500.

Concerts are one long set, from 8 to 9:30 PM, allowing working people to attend and still get home at a decent hour. The tab is reasonable too: only $13 in advance, $15 at the door. Ticket info below.

The New Jesey Jazz Society is a proud co-sponsor of Jazz for Shore.
