The Louisville Sluggers The Louisville Sluggers The Louisville Sluggers, also known as The Sluggers, were an Australian swing revival band from Sydney formed in the late 1990s by Glenn "Nugget" Scott and his sister, "The Boss". Their vision was of a swinging show with a big band sound, styling threads and songs everyone could dance to. The band took its name from the popular baseball bat commonly known as a "Louisville Slugger". (One swings a baseball bat?) This flash of inspiration took place outside the doors of the art deco Enmore Theatre in Sydney, after the band's first photo shoot. Bandleader and drummer
History of Louisville, Kentucky Bradsby manufactures over one million wooden bats per year, accounting for about two of three wooden bats sold worldwide. In 1877 the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary relocated to Louisville from Greenville, South Carolina, where it had been founded in 1859. Its new campus, at Fourth and Broadway downtown, was underwritten by a group of Louisville business leaders, including the Norton family, eager to add the promising graduate-professional school to the city's resources. It grew quickly, attracting students from all parts of the nation, and by the early 20th century it was the second largest accredited seminary in the United States.
