    Vocalist Paul Hughes salutes the golden age of the Rat Pack, channeling the spirit of Sinatra and Martin with buoyant swing and classic Vegas flair. Expect a cabaret setting with reserved seating by the seat at each table, and please note that purchasing a single seat does not reserve the entire table. A $25 food and beverage minimum applies per guest, and cabaret service features dinner along with dessert and drinks. A Manchester, England native, Hughes fell in love with jazz and swing at twelve after discovering the great crooners through his grandfather. He refined his style in pubs across the U.K., many of which once welcomed The Beatles, before taking his performances worldwide on major cruise lines. His repertoire spans the Great American Songbook and original material, with highlights that include My Lucky Stars, Then Came You, and I Bet You Weren’t Expecting This. He draws on the elegance and poise of Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Dean Martin, Tony Bennett, Frankie Valli, and Nat King Cole, earning praise from Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame member Byron Hill and Grammy and Emmy winning producer Bill Schnee for polished delivery and vivid storytelling. Hughes is currently recording a new album produced by Sal Oliveri at Capitol Studios in Los Angeles, with songs co written by Byron Hill and Roger Brown. The lead single, My Lucky Stars, was recorded with Gordon Goodwin’s Big Phat Band and selected for the soundtrack of the motion picture The Thief of Falling Stars. He has performed for audiences around the world, including a private performance for David and Victoria Beckham, and continues to build an international following while staying true to timeless jazz and swing.

After relocating to New York in 1996, he made a strong mark on the scene with a groove-first approach to instrumental music, working with drummers such as Keith Carlock, Anton Fig, Vinnie Colaiuta, and Dave Weckl, and with bassists including Will Lee, James Genus, and Reggie Washington.

    Dragon Ball Super Card Games Fusion World – FB12 Release Event

    Next Level Games Carmel, 14560 River Rd, Carmel
    See details

    Next Level Games hosts a prerelease for Dragon Ball Super Card Game Fusion World featuring the FB12 set. The event uses a sealed battle format where participants open four FB12 booster packs and build a 30 card deck on site. Any Leader Card from the official Fusion World database may be used. For this event the chosen Leader counts as having every name, trait, and color, and any card may be charged as Energy regardless of color. Players should bring an Energy Marker or an appropriate substitute such as a token card, along with sleeves so the deck uses matching sleeves. Swiss pairings will be based on attendance. Only cards opened during the event may be included in the deck, there is no limit on duplicates, and decks are locked once construction ends. Victory is achieved by reducing an opponent’s Life to zero. If a deck runs out of cards, the Drop Area is shuffled to form a new deck and play continues. Official Fusion World tournament rules apply. Judges are available for rules questions during matches, and unsportsmanlike conduct or cheating can lead to disqualification. Prizes include one FB12 booster box for the champion, and one booster pack awarded for each match win to all other players. The entry fee is $24.99.
