The Orbit Room began in November 1994. The original house band, The Dexters, played classic R&B Thursday through Saturdays, then Fridays and Saturdays, and finally just Saturdays. The Dexters are Lou Pomanti (Hammond B-3, vocals), Bernie LaBarge (guitar, vocals), Peter Cardinali (bass), and various drummers, including Michael Sloski, Greg Critchley, Jorn Andersen, Mark Kelso, Kevan MacKenzie, and Larnell Lewis. They played at the club for ten years, until their semi-retirement in 2004. At its heyday, the club had a long lineup of fans waiting in all weather to get in to the 105-seat area. Special guests included Alex Lifeson, Jose Feliciano, Joey DeFrancesco, Gary Busey, and Jeff Martin. Blues, alternative rock, reggae, soul and/or R & B can be heard live seven nights a week. On any given night, local musicians and international celebrities are often present. .... Learn more at Wikipedia
