On Feb. 14, Valentine's Day, my big band performed as the Guy Lombardo Orchestra at Feather Falls Casino in Oroville. The booking agent is a singer in Houston, TX so he came along and sang about 14 songs with us in the style of Bobby Darin, Frank Sinatra & Harry Connick, Jr.. We did 2 sets that night and may return in the future to play for their monthly Sunday evening big band dance party.
And what Feb. would be complete without a Mardi Gras gig? The Dixie Dudes, Vacaville's favorite dixieland band, played our annual (6th in a row!) party at Genentech. We mixed in a few polkas for good measure. The beer was cold and the music hot!
