Those who jumped, jived and wailed at the 2012 Amphitheater Ball can look forward to a repeat performance tonight. The Ladies First Big Band returns at 8 p.m. to a semi-benchless Amp for a concert that they expect will make Chautauquans of all ages get up and move.
In the seventh grade, Jeremy Davis and Clay Johnson experienced what might be the nightmare of every 13-year-old: Their mothers decided the two should be friends.
The boys didn’t really care to be buddies at the time, Johnson said, but their moms noticed they had identical class schedules. The two quickly became best friends and are now bandmates of Jeremy Davis & the Fabulous Equinox Orchestra. Davis directs the band and plays tenor saxophone, and Johnson sings.
