I love Swing. I'm 23 and I think that my generation has a lot more in common with the Swing Generation than we do with our parent's generation. After all, we're both just waiting for an end to the depression.

SWING is KING!!! I've been taking Jitterbug and Lindy Hop lessons for about 8 weeks and I'm having a ball! Went to see the Royal Crown Review at the 9:30 Club after 4 weeks of lessons and taught 5 girls how to SWING! SWING will always be the best. Starting the Charleston too.

So, you thought you could just delete my comments and be rid of me, eh? Well, I've got some news for ya! Next time you're walking down the cold streets of Chicago and you see a couple big black guys with mohawks comin' your way, you better get running as fast as your legs can carry you in the other direction, cuz they'll show you what "swing" really means! And after you're done swingin' (from a tree, I hope), maybe you will have learned your lesson: SWING MUSIC [censored]! The swing revival is just a bunch of corporate [censored] that major labels decided would sell big because of all the senseless morons out there who continue to buy CDs simply because of their novelty value. Well, I'm sure once you people grow up, you'll finally be sick of the ONE RIFF that swing music contains and decide to listen to something of value. Thank you for your time and I look forward to you trying to get rid of me once more. -punk P.S. I'll be back...with a rope!

I don't know where to start. Swing has changed my life in various ways. I have met so many cool people thru swing dancing at different places and even here at school. I think swing is not only fun, but it is educational and cultural. Just think, the whole country, America and Canada, are totally into it. It just goes to show how social it really is and that the bad things in this world can't get the better of everyone. Swing is so innocent and healthy. It's an expression of freedom and joy of kids and young-at-heart adults. I can't express how happy swing makes me feel. I never get tired of it and I always want to learn more. My goal for the future is to open up my own Swing club in Olympia, WA when I get out of colle ge. So if you're ever in the area in about 5 years, stop on by. And tell the guy that is collecting cover fee that "Terah sent me" -thanks ASG for the sweetest website ever.

Just in the past year or so, I have really gotten into the whole "swing" thing; I love it! I think it's great that places now play swing music where you can actually dance, instead of all that "booty grind" crap they play everywhere, and you don't have to be completely wasted to do it. Swing is so much fun!

HI! I've read most of the comments, and like some of them, I am a new fan of the swing revival. I really enjoy listening to this kind of music because I love to dance. Unfortunatley, I am a clutz and can not do any real gen uine forms of the dance. My favorite bands so far are Royal Crown Review and the Brian Setzer Orchestra.

fabulous joint you cats got going here. dig and listen to bbvd and brian setzer religiously. san diego is one of the hippest cities to listen to and learn about swing. hey, just take a look at websites like these and local b ands like big time operator. from a local yocal, any swing goes is the ultimate source for all things swing. waiting for some clever line from a song? don't hear it from me, spend your own loot and get the cd's. = )

Swing and swing dancing is becoming really popular all over again...I'm from the east coast and there aren't that many big Swing bands out this way. There is a really good local band, however, who I feel are just as swingin' a s Big Bad Voodoo Daddies, Royal Crown Review and Cherry Poppin' Daddies. They're called Big Tubba Mista. Their first CD will be released soon and who knows what could happen from there. These guys are hot. Check them out if you can! (what can I say I'm a loyal fan) Also, we're trying to start up a lindy hop and swing dance lesson gig here in harrisburg a nd so far it's working out great...I've always loved swing and I'm so happy it's coming back better than ever!!
