Joe Larosa is ruining it for everyone

Due to the comments Joe Larosa leaves for people on Facebook and talks nasty to people I will be recommending that this band be taken off all sites for business.

About

Simply Swing is in demand to perform at private parties, weddings, corporate functions and community events throughout Southern New England in 2012. The group is already scheduled to appear in New Britain, Plainville, Avon, Farmington, Windsor Locks, Burlington, Bloomfield and Wethersfield, CT as well as Wilbraham, MA. In 2011, Simply Swing performed at the New Englad Air Museum in Windsor Locks for AVIATION SUMMIT 2011, one of the largest conventions held recently in CT. The group was also featured at The Sportcasters' Super Ball at The Club at Rentschler Field in East Hartford. That gala event raised more than $100,000 for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
