In a Nutshell

Swing band sets the holidays in motion with a throwback set list that includes Louis Armstrong covers and carols updated with brass

The Fine Print

Live shows challenge bands to go with the flow of the audience—loud cheers means fans want more fireworks and a sea of lighters means they’re about to light their own fireworks. Become one with the crowd with this GrouponLive deal to see Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s Wild and Swingin’ Holiday Party at Union County Performing Arts Center on Thursday, December 13, at 8 p.m. Doors open at 7 p.m. Choose between the following seating options:

  • For $15, you get one ticket for mezzanine seating (up to a $29 value, including all fees).
  • For $20, you get one ticket for loge seating (up to a $39 value, including all fees).

In their annual holiday concert series, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy sets the Christmas season in full swing with a set of big-band carols and spirited jazz standards. Bandleader Scotty Morris grips the mike like a Christmas ornament that just won’t stay still while leading his old-fashioned ensemble in an eggnog-smooth cover of “Blue Christmas” and a hip-swiveling cha-cha version of “Jingle Bells.” In a rare moment of nearly sober reverence, the band’s instrumental “We Three Kings” strikes a slower, more solemn note. Other, less familiar gems might include Louis Armstrong’s “Zat You Santa Claus?” and “Mr. Heatmiser,” a snappy duet from the 1972 claymation classic The Year Without a Santa Claus. Big Bad Voodoo Daddy performs “Rockabilly Xmas” on Last Call with Carson Daly in 2004

The Groupon Guide to: Impromptu Holiday Games

With holiday season in full swing, there's no shortage of dinner parties to attend. If your host doesn't own any board games, save the evening by suggesting a game that can be played without gaming equipment:

Bang, Bang, Hear, Hear: Have one person grab a fork, spoon, and knife. After everyone else closes their eyes, the person holding the utensils will start banging one of the three against the dinner table. The first person to correctly guess what the banger is banging wins and gets to leave the game.

Noise Town: Break off into groups of two. Each pair builds a unique city by creating a soundscape using the sounds that come out of their mouths. The team that builds the loudest town gets the grand prize—getting to wait outside until the other teams stop.

My Country, Your Country: One person starts the game by approaching another person and saying "My country." The person has to respond, as quickly as possible, "Your country?" The first person then must say "My country" again, this time faster than the second person said "Your country?" This keeps going until everyone feels compelled to simultaneously shout "The holidays: are these not the finest times of our years?" Then everyone gets to leave.

Should December be called Game-cember?
