This is GREAT writing, so much can be said for shure after one time listening and reading! I wasn't familiar with the song;
awesome creativity to hear a bigband swing style number here and be able to write that down!
Since you asked for details (I'm no expert in writing for bigband but did some arranging much less advanced than yours): Your writing for every musician/section always seems to be fun to play, no redundant parts or boaring repetitions, interesting textures all the way through the piece. Great rhythmical interlocking between the sections and (after one go) I have heared some really interesting passages (those chromatically descending chords in the saxes + many more). And everything is written down in a very professional way.
In a nutshell: This is a killer arrangement and if I were a Foo Fighters Fan, I would absolutely go crazy hearing this piece in this style in a concert. Your band should find a singer and play this arrangement At ONCE!!!!!
