I have to go through them tomorrow, Great to see Tony.

Can't wait... hurry

Sparky, thanks for coming, it was great to see you, too bad we couldn't talk longer ...

Tony, Looks like you got a great night for the gig. Great too that Sparky was able to come by.

Thanks, sparky ... I know the conditions were tough for video, but you did a good job ...

Lookin Good, Tony, gazing at the vids, you might have another 20 years on stage.

Tony, good job, it’s nice to see and hear one of our brothers here on SZ. The video must bring back some nice memories.

Keep playing, John C.

Sounds great Tony! It’s a treat to hear and see a fellow arranger keyboardist playing live. I wish more would post their work too. Thanks for sharing!

Tony very enjoyable...
A bit closer I would attend..
Keep them coming!
Thanx for sharing.

Yeah essential tremor in hands makes for shaky videos..

Sparky, I had no idea ... I was referring to the lighting etc. as someone else was trying to take some vids and the lighting was causing problems ...

Awesome . . . Play on my friends!!!

Tony, Just discovered the videos, nice job, good to hear you again.

Good job Sparky and Tony. What part of Jersey was this?

Larry, it's in Warren Township.
Sal, the guitar player, and I graduated in the same high school class, and later he played in the band we had in NY for 26 years ...
We've been doing this 50's gig for 5 years now, as part of Warren's Summer Concert series ...
Sparky was nice enough to stop by and stayed for the entire 2 hour show ... above and beyond the call of duty ...

That's about an hour away from me. Maybe next time Tony

Hopefully, Larry ...

A couple of pics from our 50s concert:
two pics of part of the crowd ... As you can see the sun was right in our face ... hmmm who is that on the far right in pic #2 ???

The stage arrives as an 18 wheeler trailer, then they raise one side and lower the floor ... The speakers are rolled off another truck on dollies and then hooked up to the 'roof' of the stage ...

Tony Nice pictures.....

Really neat pictures Tony. Budweiser had a similar set-up at a couple fairs I played with bands. Everything was self-contained on a Semi-Trailer. Lights, gargantuan speakers, mics & mic stands with a snake that ran out to the mixing board with two sound techs and a follow spot. It really felt like the major leagues.
