    I've swung 2 shows at Madison Square Garden, and it's always great to have different tips and tricks to do my job better. Great insight, great stories and accurate accounts of the job of a swing!

    Absolutely fantastic book, with essential information. It's preparing me for a new job as a Swing on a Disney Cruise ship. Took quite a long time to arrive, however.
