Another Fun Fact

-----
When we first started performing in Florida, at Turtles Restaurant on Siesta Key in 1992,  we didn't have a promotional photo of the two of us so we used a fairly recent head shot of just me.  The photo below was posted in the glass display case just outside the door of Turtles with our name underneath.  One night a lady YELLED at me for using someone else's photo.  She accused me of using Jennifer Grey's photo and claiming it was me!! (Jennifer Grey of Dirty Dancing fame.)  And she wouldn't give it up!

Well, it really WAS me.  But I heard over and over that the photo looked like Jennifer.

What do YOU think?

Another Great Weekend


Saturday night was a grand night at the Italian American Club of Venice.  Another sold-out crowd.  Thank you thank you!  And what a great audience.  Those folks do a GREAT job of organizing, promoting, and cooking too!  This is our second show there, and we have all promised to do it again next year.  Grazie!

_____________
Then Sunday night we performed for the first time at Alameda Isles in Englewood.  What a terrific community.  Nice people, great clubhouse, and lots of fun. Of course Buddy, being SOOO Italian, always 
changes names to sound like food.  So all day he kept calling it "Calamari Isles".  Figures. 

 Well, God bless you all.  We'll keep you posted.

Another First

-----

Well, Tuesday night at Visani Dinner Theater we performed our new show "The Soundtrack of Our Lives" for the first time, and all the songs that were part of our 36 years together must have struck a chord with the audience too, because hands were clapping and toes were tapping and there were smiles all around.  We had a great time sharing our story and our songs with a room full of happy people.  Many thanks to all who attended.

We welcomed new audience members who had never seen our show before, and we saw many familiar faces as well.  And oh yes, a visit from Buddy's 'look-a-like'.
