What do people say about us?

"Forget hip-hop.  Lindy hop's where it's at - well, on Wednesday nights downstairs at the Southbank in Bedminster, at least.  That's where Ain't Misbehavin' - Bristol's newest swing dance night - takes over, with jazz on the decks, a taster class in a separate room and experienced dancers partying like it's 1939.  Or just nurse a mint julep at the bar whilst deciding whether it's for you or not."
