TheCommish notes: Not exactly sure how to categorize this group. Their motto is "Roots baby, roots" so I guess that's Americana. But some songs definitely seem like Jazz or Swing. During most of their Halloween-themed set they were performing songs from their Boogie BOO! albums. Some of the songs are covers of old songs from the earlier 20th century and some are originals. I only bothered to notate the popular cover songs performed at the end of the set. Frankenstein (on stilts) appeared a couple times during the set; you can see him at the end of the video for "Monster Mash."

If you like this torrent, won't you please take a moment to post a comment on the board? It only takes a moment, and believe me, it takes A LOT longer to prepare/upload a show for others to enjoy than it does to download and run.
