  • Still sellout crowds at the GMO gigs. The band sounds great and logging many, many miles a year. We remain the busiest Big Band around.

  • WHAT A WONDERFUL IDEA! STUFFING STYROFOAM CUPS INTO THE MOUTH OF YOUR TROMBONE. NOW WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?

  • The Solo-tone has the craziest sound ever

  • great performance in Prague last night by the GMO of this song.... I wish big bands would get much more popular again, although with having the GMO concert attendance a yearly thing for me, I have noticed the crowds getting younger, so it is a good trend to see the younger generation appreciate the swinging big bands....

  • When I heard this, I could've sworn the solo was a theremin!

  • white people couldn't dance in the 1950's

  • They are playing this great song way too fast,itnever went that fast for Tommy,

  • I didn't realize that they took Bunny Berigans solo and harmonized it for the band.

  • I'm sure they have heard before that this is 'too fast'........but.....they are doing it in THEIR STYLE!........So try get some sophisticated knowledge and gain some WISDOM at the same time...!

  • Did I see Sam Donahue, a sax man, move into the trumpets to make 5 of them, for the Bunny Berigan passage?

  • A rather mechanical reinterpretation of TD's classic. They're rushing it and the 'bone solo lacks TD's velvety touch.
