Tony,
I went to school with Greg Piccolo who is no longer with the band.
Greg, was well admired for his musical talents in our high school.
The band was always visible. The music was astounding.
Sad to hear, one of their members has passed so suddenly. I was a bit surprised they were still playing at all. We are all entering our senior years now. What a tribute to all the members of the band past and present that this band has survived so many decades with such popularity.
Great music! Nice memories!

Lin, Greg Picolo's well known in RI, there's another article on the band in todays Prov. Journal the link is below. From what I read they just released another album this month called Raisin' a Ruckus
The aricle's writer calls Raisin' their most muscular effort yet.
