Okay, so it might not have been the best version of Quiet Village, but it's a personal favorite. At the Dresden Room, which is just a short bit away from Tiki-Ti, there's a longtime lounge duo, Marty and Elayne -- an older couple, both with black dyed hair, matching black sequined getups, and a set list of lounge songs that rotates a bit but otherwise doesn't really change. The Dresden Room and Marty and Elayne are in the movie Swingers, if that helps. I've been there plenty of times, the Dresden still has lots of gorgeous vintage details.

But the first time I took Hanford to the Dresden Room, as SOON as we both walked in, those familiar notes kicked in -- duh DUH duDUH duh DUH duhhh.... I'd never heard them play Quiet Village before, and it made us feel like we were making quite a grand entrance.
