In the past I have put videos on You Tube of about 12 of these bands. 
They are still available for viewing.

Not that it is very relevant, since I am not likely to be there - a 
bit far from Israel - but I've tried to find some of the bands on the 
web, to no avail. For example, I found information on Joe V, but not 
the band. The one swing band I jhave found - Red Skunk - makes me 
wonder. Definitely not my kind of music, ad I just cannot stand 
wailing guitars. Is that what you mean by swing bands? I probably 
listen to swing more than to trad, and I know there are some great 
swing musicians and groups in the US. 
However, there seems to be more good jazz than one can possibly hear 
over a few days. The New Black Eagle JB is among the best anywhere. 
Uptown Lowdown has long been a favourite (only recently I bought a 
vinyl LP of the band). And lots of others. I wish I could hear the 
Reynold Brothers in person. 
In the meantime, I am going to a festival closer to home - listmate 
Itzes' Bohem Festival in Kecskemet, Hungary. over the ensuing weekend. 
Cheers
