    Swing and big bands
    A long time back, I asked if any of the authoring groups were possibly looking into swing bands (like Squirrel Nut Zippers, Royal Crown Revue, Cherry Poppin' Daddies, etc.) and I think one of the gentlemen in one of the authoring groups said they were working on it. I know it's been like a year at least since I asked, but is there any chance we might see more songs from this genre down the road? Thanks for your time.

    Hey, we ended up getting music from a genre called "experimental noise". Swing can't be that far-fetched.

    I highly recommend this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IArgc9cmBhk

    It's not an actual big band, but it has that style, and it's a pretty cool song.

    That video doesn't show the guitar chart, but all the horns are charted to guitar.

    Yeah, I have that song already. It's definitely fun.
