Tempi

The band has agreed to play at any tempo I choose! that is good news for the WCAI-NAN Swing event with local radio star Mindy Todd and our own Dr. Robert Wilsterman on Memorial Day Weekend. I listened to their CD and was afraid the band would be way too jazzy and completely too fast. I told them Mary French said if the music was very fast, the dancers in the 1940s would just watch the musicians. That some "swing kids" seem to have no regard for the beat, but we respect it.
