QUOTE
The Swinging Bavarians is a German Bavarian band based in Central Florida that perform authentic and traditional Bavarian attire known as, ‘Lederhosen (that’s right, leather pants!) and Dirndls’.
But, it doesn’t stop there!
The Swinging Bavarians come complete with ‘Miesbacher hats and feathers’, ‘Wadl Strümpf’ (2 piece socks) and those beautifully decorated beer steins!
In fact, their entire wardrobe has been imported from Germany and Austria. Bill Schoenfeldt, the leader of the band, was also imported, born in Nürnberg, Germany in the state of Bayern (Bavaria). He started the group with his brothers and close family friends -- and now the band has grown to include his three adult children.
The Swinging Bavarians play all the favorite and traditional songs of the Oktoberfest season as well as a wide variety of musical styles for all audiences to enjoy!

I had three requests to dance the polka, one by a pretty young lobbyist from D.C., but being in my tennis shoes and memories of the last time I was enticed to the dance floor. It took me two months to repair my strained hip.
Great time and great people.
