So here's the skinny on the band:


The Band (click for larger)

Last night was my second rehearsal with The Band. I did vocals on three tunes: Mack the Knife, Beyond the Sea, and Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You. My co-worker and band-mate on the Baritone Sax was nice enough to do the recordings.

Fun stuff! I gotta say that it's an absolute thrill to sing with a real Big Band with real instruments! Wow!

First gig: Memorial Day, at the American Legion in Pompano.

Special note for DrumDude: The recordings were made with a Zoom H2 recorder.

I listened to them all and I liked "Beyond The Sea" the best.
As an afterthought, HOLY CRAP those guys look old... they may have sat in for some of the originals of the songs y'all are playing.

j/k but I'm old now, so I am allowed to olderfy other folks... see, only us old folks call people folks...
