Lost Jazz Shrines Celebrates... Tin Palace

Tribeca Performing Arts Center’s annual “Lost Jazz Shrines” series is an exciting rediscovery of the hottest and hippest jazz venues in the Big Apple. This year’s series celebrates Tin Palace, which opened in the fall of 1970 at Bowery and Second Street. Paul Pines, owner, presented an array of jazz from classics and standards to fusion and a series of Brazilian percussionists using silverware and salt shakers as musical instruments. The club became recognized by the media and music industry as a serious venue and soon the seedy East Village backstreet was lined by limousines and Japanese tourists. Three different concerts will glorify the legendary music that was performed at Tin Palace during that unforgettable offbeat post-hippy, pre-punk East Village era.

On Friday, May 18th, 2007 at the 7pm Humanities Panel: Paul Pines, the former owner of the Tin Palace, will be interviewed by Ted Panken, WKCR jazz programmer and contributor to Jazz Times and Down Beat magazines.
