I love this song! I saw a girl do a jazz routine to this song and I just fell in love with it! So catchy! It just makes you tap your feet and bop along (for me the "i-don't-dance-if-my-life-depended-on-it" girl) :P
Saw BBVD perform live in Stowe VT a few years back... WOW! And got to meet each on them after the show. Great guys. Superb musicians and showmen. They are one of those few bands that's actually better live! Worth seeing if you have the chance.
most of them are normal suits with big jakets but i think there is a zoot suit in there witch is much more hard to find if you want a real one it will take alot of serching unless you use the internet
We saw them last night at Epcot as well. I had never even heard of them, but a friend of ours told my husband and I that they were very good. He wasn't kidding-they are one of the best! You just don't see talent like this anymore. We're going to do some research on how they came up with the idea to start this band, because nobody thinks of doing swing music anymore.
Im just done! Im gonna play this freakin hard song as the only blower (Omg what that word sounded gay, sry for my english in case it´s sucks.) So I actually grabbed some sax notes to, to fill out the space. Tell me your hotmail or anything so I can send you the sheets. But.. I can´t say that they are 100% perfect but i works fine for me. :) Keep up the good work.
Man, I would love to see this band, as I'm really into swing and jazz. (I play trumpet, piano, and sax, in addition to other instruments). They are the most BA band ever!!
Gee--sounds a LOT like the Flying Neutrinos' "Mr. Zoot Suit."
These guys traveled to NYC to warm up for the Neutrinos on a club gig (for free!), before they wrote "Pin Stripe," before they hit it big, and the Neutrinos played "Mr. Zoot Suit" that night. Coincidence? I think not.
They should share their royalties with Mark Cally, who wrote "Mr. Zoot Suit."
It only sounds like that because it's the same style. I've heard Mr. Zoot Suit, it's one of my favorite songs, but this is SO different from that it's not even funny, it's just the same style and that's it.
Let's see, imitate the Gene Krupa drum beat from "SIng, SIng, Sing," put a plunger muted trumpet in there, call it Mr. Pin Stripe Suit in stead of Mr. Zoot Suit...no, I guess it's all an amazing coincidence. Whatever, it's all ancient history already. Most nouveau swing fans aren't able to distinguish originality from plagiarism, sadly.
We wouldn't give two knocks even if you were right, and making four comments about it will change few minds. Neither will insulting the people who like the music.
There are ways of referencing other songs and artists that shows you've studied the style, or are honoring your predecessors, and then there's ripping off someone else's song.
"Covering" (that word is not used in jazz, but this is definitely NOT jazz) Cab's music is cool by me, that falls under the honoring one's predecessors and showing your influences category.
yes ... that guy with the no hair is in every role where there is a strange mysterious bald man required. he's a famous bit player. apparently that's all he does. good eyes for picking that one out. its even in his actors union contract that he has to keep his head clean shaven all the time in case a part comes up... large or small.
its not the same guy as from powder tho. I found that out the other day. the guy in powder is Sean Patrick Flanery also well known from Boondock Saints, and supposedly is one of Sean Connery's sons.. cant say for sure tho
eh it figures, I suck at noticing that kind of thing when reading online.. didnt see any mockery, Im weird tho lol.. I have seen the guy from that vid somewhere before, just no clue where
I love this kind of music. Remember when the "Squirrel Nut Zippers" did "Hell" a few years back? I thought it would catch on, yet we're still stuck with crap rap, hip-hop, and pop!
This style is actually a newer style. It's not formal big band, like I think you're talking about. There's not as many band members and they've added electric guitars. This style has the instrumentation of 3rd wave ska, but the sound of big band. New-esque.
I like this music, I never heard of this group till I read they were scheduled to do tonights canceled Tonight Show because Jay had to go to hospital.
just saw them in huntington ny on fri...unbelieveably awesome....GET TICKETS!!! one of the most talented bands ever...watched them with a smile on my face the entire concert. cant wait tiil i see em again..and that lead singer...HOT HOT HOT. SO DAMN CUTE
They are coming to Australia soon and we are so torn about going to see them. We want to, but the venue is an over-the-top-crowded place and that turns us off.
