The Christopher Cohan Center is a beautiful performing arts theater on the Cal Poly university campus and it seats around 1,300 people and has curved interior walls to reduce audio standing waves. The acoustics are perfect, and we were upfront in the sixth row, almost center. Because of the close proximity to the stage I was getting a lot of direct sound from the horns which blended perfectly with the overhead PA vocals and the the piano, bass, etc. I hadn't seen, or recorded, BBVD since the Fremont Theater show in SLO in 2016 so I was psyched to see them again. They are such an awesome big band with all the horns, and Scotty really steers the ship as the band leader and lead vocalist. I thought it was funny when Scotty told the crowd between songs that the biggest request that they received for the Holiday Extravaganza was to 'Please don't play just holiday music!' Too funny! I was relieved to hear this because in the car on the way up I told my wife that I really wanted to hear Big Bad Voodoo Daddy classics like 'Mr. Pinstripe Suit', and she assured me that it would be, 'Just Holiday songs'. All I can say now is 'Nay'!!!! ;) I loved hearing the band 'swing' through the holiday classics and the fact that they played some of their own classics was icing on the cake! I also really enjoyed hearing Scotty's humorous stories, like when he thought that he had been pickpocketed by Santa, or when his young daughter requested her favorite holiday song. 'All I want For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth' and he agreed to do it for her. Thanks so much to Flying M for his post production 'Fairy Dust' that he does with his mad scientist computer programs. This recording really shines now because of his work.
