Update:
If you watch the Sing, Sing, Swing Dress Rehearsal one you can hear dd on Black Ball Ferry.

Original OP:
My dd's vocal group is 1/2 way through an 8 night run of swing show performances. For any Seattle area peeps that might be interested, they have shows 5/26-29 at the Broadway Performance Hall in Seattle.
She has super straight and long hair. So, getting it into a 40's hair style has been a challenge. We ended up curling it, then rolling each curl into a pin curl.
Pin curls...she leaves these in for 1-2 hours...she also has her false eyelashes and show make up on at this point.
Results after we remove the pins...she still has quite a bit of the color streaks left in her hair, which she had put in back in Feb.
Opening number/dance... 
Black Ball Ferry...channeling her inner Andrew Sisters...
Chattanooga Choo Choo
San Fernando Valley 
Shoo Shoo Baby 
Embraceable You...she loves that she gets a costume change. :-) I am struggling to get a half way decent picture...the lighting is so wonky on that side of the stage. 
Just a fun one of the final exit and a great freeze frame on the guy's hair (he was coming up from the bow)...

Thanks guys. It's been a super fun show, very outside their normal music style, they usually do 70-80's pop/rock.

Your dd is gorgeous....and major props on the hair, also gorgeous!! I've always LOVED the way ladies did their makeup and hair in the 40's....... The piks make me wish I could hear them singing ---looks fantastic!!! LOL, before I read that the guy was coming up from the bow, I thought "whoa! COOL hairstyle he has, too----was that a thing in the 40's I'd never seen before?!?!" |

They are generally pretty conservative when it comes to sharing videos of their performances, since they want folks to buy tickets. But, they have been sharing short clips on their Facebook page.
If you watch the Sing, Sing, Swing Dress Rehearsal one you can hear dd on Black Ball Ferry.

www.facebook.com/NorthwestBoychoirVocalpointSeattle/videos We frequently ride the Black Ball Ferry and they started playing the song about five years ago when you are 10 minutes out from docking. I thought it was a reproduction tune but they have a small Black Ball history museum on the Port Angeles side that explains the origins of the song. Love it! |

As soon as she played the song for me I recognized the names of the WA state ferries. Kind of cool to think of the history behind it.
