Where To Swing!?!?!?
I'm going to go back to Hawaii
in June and I can't find a thing on where to start some fires and shred some rugs!
And, all the good shows (including RCR and Indigo Swing) are going on before I make
it bake to the Aloha State.
Also, I'm stopping over in Salt
Lake City and I'd like to know what's going on there, so keep me hep to the jive,
gates.

Made It To
Brian Setzer...
...strangely enough. As much as I complain about'em (sorry
all...), I have to say he puts on a great show.
Ms. Julie and (hep)Kitty won the tix swingin', but Ms. Julie
kindly sent the privies to yours truly due to prior obligations - what a great gal!
Which reminds me, I'm still working on a Carbondale Swing
Kids page, which willmost definately include Ms. Kitty, Ms. Julie, Swing Tony, and all the
regular cats at the Copper Dragon.

Vargas Swing
In Carbondale
I have to say that it was a great performance (nothing new
there), but the timing of the show (night before first big test of the semester) created a
less than ideal head count. Nonetheless, it was a good time and a whole lot of
stylin' swingers.
Vargas Swing is on tour as of
the 10th until the end of this month, reaching as far as Tampa, Florida. Much luck
and a good time to 'em all.
Link to Vargas Swing is on the right column, there.
. . .
I still don't have a style page!!!
In short,though (and this is what I try
to tell most people) dress in your styliest Sunday church clothes and think sinfully when
you're goin' out and you're fine.

Big Bad Voodoo Daddy
New CD!
Go to Hepcat
Records and do a search on the boys. It's exclusive from them as far as I know.
. . .
As usual, the chunkiest part of this site, thus far is:
Pics of swingin', posing with Scotty Morris of BBVD, and a good idea of
what you can wear, if nothin' else.

"Swingin' - Like A
Gate!!!"
It's the King of Swing, Ladies
and Gentleman.
"Watch'im Go - See'im Fly"
Swing is back, folks!
(As if I were around for the first round or something - really...)
This site is a 'zine for people who want to know
more about the swing-culture. It's also a documentation of my own personal insight
and experiences about swing here in the "wonderful" Midwest - St. Louis, Chicago
and SIU Carbondale (huzzah).
Welcome, folks...
