I love big band music.
I'm sitting here mellowing to some Si Zentner as he and his band do some incredible jazz. Man, some things just never go out of style.

One small codicil: I LOATHE Lawrence Welk. :evilgrin:

2. Most times, I'd just as soon listen to Glenn Miller or Benny Goodman
as Pink Floyd.

3. I HATE, HATE, HATE Big Band music
But then I've had it force fed to me twice a week for the last 3 years.

I keep hoping Big Band will die out with the old people, but every week I see youngsters coming in to listen to it and it just fills me with despair.

I'll never escape it. Until I die.

I grew up listening to it and it has special memories for me.
