Well,yeah that was my take on it...I always call the "those ska kids".
I mean,when my friends and I were into swing,it was like,the REAL 
swing,not a revamped ska/punk band in zoot suits! We were just a bunch 
of musical theatre majors at a performing arts school who found a 
certain showtune-ish schtick and flamboyance about swing...<sigh> 
Anyway,I have no right...my parents weren't even around when swing first 
hit...
