Our Visani Shows



I'm a little behind here, but I just wanted to thank everyone who came to our two shows at Visani Dinner Theater in Port Charlotte last week.  It was a great turn-out and and a fun time.  (Especially for me, because my dear friend Cindy was visiting us from Delaware and she came to both shows. She's been our biggest fan and sometimes roadie since I started singing in my first band in 1974.  We call each other 'Wally'.  Don't even ask.)

On Tuesday night we were thrilled to see that YES, there is life in Florida in the summer.  We had a roomful of happy people having a great time.  They really seemed to get into our new soulful Aretha Franklin medley, and they got a big bang out of Buddy's new song feature..."Are You Bloated Tonight" by 'Elvis Parsley'.   (Yes, we're sick people, but that's why you like us.)

Then the next day,  on Wednesday afternoon, we had three large traveling groups who arrived by motor coach for our mid-day matinee dinner show.  So we want to thank Ship & Shore Travel (Sarasota), Advantage Cruises and Tours (St. Petersburg),  and the Lake Kennedy Center of Cape Coral for bringing your groups to see us.  We had even MORE people for our matinee on Wednesday than the night before, and it was a blast. And it was really cool to see those three big motor coaches parked in the Visani parking lot. 

We'll be doing one more encore show at Visani on Monday, August 30.  In fact, ANOTHER traveling group is coming by motor coach all the way from Fort Lauderdale for this one.  Should be a good time.  See our web site for details. (www.divaandtheitalianguy.com)
So as always, thanks for being here. 
I'm searching the archives for more "vintage" photos of Buddy and me.  Or as our friend Paul says, "historical and hysterical photos".
Till then....God Bless you all.
