Thanks Jimmy for correcting the name of the tune "Boogey". Were you there when the Andrew sisters first did it on Broadway????

Perhaps it’s "C" for corps, not "C" for C horns, or "G" for G horns. Avoiding the whole horn tunage debate.

As far as I know, I think we'll still be using the G horns we have... but then again, I'm not in the horn line.

Any who, it’s a cool show idea; I think it’s been too long since America's Entertainers have done an American themed show. (yeah..so we did "A tribute to American Composers" in 2002, but it didn't feel as in-your-face-American-tribute, as much as a Bernstien-and-friends one)

Sounds like it'll be very tasteful too. I like the selections of the more modern/alternative patriotic music, as apposed to the traditional patriotic tunes.

I guess it's that Mansfield Education that lead me to be picky haha! :thumbup:

I always thought it was Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company B?

I woulda thought if you were to change it you would call it the Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy of Company G!

It certainly won't be Company Bb.

Sounds like another great show for Empire.

Can't wait to hear their amazing sop line lead by Joey Pero play Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy!

I know a great bag pipe player up in Canada for Amazing Grace. Has there ever been a bag pipe player in DCA?

Good luck this year Empire and will see you in the summer!

You cannot do the Boogie Woogie without the Bugle.

Boogie Woogie Trumpet boy from Company Bb does not have the same ring to it. :smile:
