This is great! Love the band, love the song and the dancers are just off the friggin' hook good!! This was a match made in Heaven for everyone! Kids of my generation didn't grow up with swing, but we got it in our daily lives through cartoons like the Jetsons and the Flintstones among others. Listen to the theme music for those two shows, big band swing all the way, and damn good music! Who knew were were getting a music education too? BBVD has my vote too!

@jennbode01 Who doesn't have that respect that has even an iota of education about the dance and/or ? Hell, the respect is downright trendalicious right now. Ah, now my cynicism is showing, excuse me... What isn't trendalicious is paying attention to our recent past & how we have built upon it.

@Direness well then i must say that while i do have "respect" for them bringing it back...I have adoration for the older people that played and danced to it in and around the era of the big band. Frankie, The jones's, etc...I have been dancing for many of years...i was taught by my grandfather around the age of 6 and have been dancing to his records since then (i am now 28) and i am teaching my son the same.

Don't care for the show, but I love the band

@jennbode01 I look at today's kids who weren't there in the beginning and hear their "Ewwwww, BBVD is grooooossss. God, that's so old!" like they know something. The truth is those kids wouldn't BE here today - a huge percentage of today's newer dancers wouldn't - if it hadn't been for the first waves of Neo-Swing musicians and dancers to bring in the next wave. Yeah, it's not the kind of music we dance to now, but it was good for it's time, and it made some magic happen. Have a little respect.
great band live

I'm tired of people saying they miss jazz, if you miss it so much hire a local band for your next event, we're starving for paying gigs! There's TONS of jazz bands still out there many performing and writing custom arrangements/tunes, if you like it support it.
