Posted - March 31 2003 : 11:57:58 AM Anyone interested in getting together this summer? All are invited! I want ideas: Valley Stream or some other location...Rent out a place or have it at someone's home...But I think we should do it. After all, if we don't do it now, we never will...if you get my drift. Give me your thoughts either on the post or via private messages. Thanks. |

Posted - August 16 2004 : 02:54:24 AM Jeffrey, You were missed ! Too bad you weren't there...Ronnie Federici filled on drums and played with Doc, Eddie, and Barry, I got too wasted to play...Big Arthur and Mike Russell were there so if you had come All of the original FTW Boogie Band would have been present ! Maybe next year and maybe Louie Doucimascola and Ben Daidone can show up so the original Frank Wrappa and the Greasers of Invention aka The Iggy & The Stooges Band from the infamous night at Holy Name can be on hand.

As one who was unable to make it to New York for the reunion, I just want to thank gokarter for the wonderful pictures. Seems like a lot of people there I didn't know ... but it was wonderful to see those photos of Michael,Lillian and Doc; Karen and Michael, Barry and Ed!, and everyone really. Good to see you all looking so beautiful and happy! Would love to read more stories about the party, etc...
Thanks again... jeffrey z |

Posted - July 18 2004 : 9:12:54 PM Doc. I owe you a bottle of Jack Daniels...I've been told I polished off the entire bottle yesterday...and I was also glad to hear I didn't break or damage anything other than myself. Believe it or not I woke up this morning with no hangover...just a black and blue arm that looks sort of eggplant colored... Thanks to Dink and Ricky for helping Andrea pack me in to the car and keeping me upright ! And thanks to you Doc and Doris for a great party! Bean
I heard Urgo tried to pick me up couple of times but I brought him down with me. Knowing John he was not too far beyond me in the amount of alcohol consumed ! BUT Thanks for trying John ! |

Posted - January 02 2004 : 06:24:29 AM Well, I am off the two weeks just prior to the 4th of July [first week, though, is taken up by our Annual Mohican Gathering in NC - anyone wanna come?!? ] and the week prior to Labor Day. But, I think Ricky & John were going to be in NY that July week, which is why it was mentioned in the first place, so I think it should stay as is -
AND - HOLD ON!!! - Doc has made me an offer I just might not be able to refuse! Might be able to slip off for just the weekend after all ... we'll see.
I would love to mingle with y'all. DANG! |
Bean |
Posted - January 02 2004 : 12:53:06 AM Almost though...anyone who wants to Change them better contact Doc, Dink, Eddie, & Lillian, I think plans have been started by all them for this. I too will be really sad if Richie doesn't make it when ever we have it. Bean |

Posted - January 01 2004 : 3:54:43 PM Wait a minute Richie, I have been feeling pretty fine this New Year's Day until I read your message that July won't work for you.
What will work for you? I must see you! Dates of reunion are not carved in stone yet. |

Posted - December 30 2003 : 06:30:39 AM I'm ruined - too late for me. Vacation schedule has been passed around already at my workplace. No firm commitments were made here - I tried to poke y'all along; I had to choose other time slots.
As a Dodger fan, I can always say, "Wait till NEXT year!" |

I've been speaking with Doc who said he could host this at his and Doris's place on LI. The weekend of July 17th? ESG
This is the first I am hearing about the offering of my home....but sure, why not. July 17th weekend is just fine. As long as Lil stays to help clean.
