Oldie but Goodie
November 5, 2012 – 10:59 pm
The finale from last spring’s concert. A good ol’ swingin’ time was had by all, especially that cup-muted trombone soloist at the 3:00 mark in “It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing)”, who may or may not be typing this.
I’ll leave that up to you to decide.
SONIC BOOM! a raucous success

Dearest WE-ers,
