Jimmy, Stages played at our wedding back in 1985 and I just loved them. Are most of the same guys still in the band?

Marion,

I believe so but I am not sure. Frankie Truglio was my neighbor on White Plains Road and I remember him taking accordion lessons early on. It payed off as he became a great musician. Stages played at my nieces wedding 2 years ago and will be playing at my daughters wedding next year.

Jimmy...are you sure of the date...

I hope it is the 16th because I was under the impression that it was the following week and would have not been able to be there, but the 16th looks like we may be able to make it... :D

Ok, so it's been confirmed...Stages will be appearing at Yonkers on the 16th. Who's on board to go? It definitely sounds like it could be fun. I've told a few friends about it.

Hello all and John good idea.I have been up to the casino it is a nice place not a Las Vegas or Atlantic City but a place for people to go that is near and can try their luck.Anyway as you guys park and exit your cars there will be a shuttle bus that will take you to the casino door.Once inside you will head towards the back and to your left you will be looking for the Gotham Palace.That is were they will be playing in the lounge..I am going with Matty K. and we will get there by eight for a seat.I can only make the suggestion that the people who are going find the Gotham Palace Lounge and get a seat.I am not sure we would be able to hold any.So get there about by eight or eight thirty.Just a suggestion if you can think of anything else that would be good.O by the way if anyone is not familiar as to how to get there the no.is 1-914-968-4200 they can give directions or find out on line.See you all there Linda P.S the Palace is located on the first floor if you get there early and want somthing to eat go to the second floor.

Linda, I think my brother told me that they have nickel slot machines there, which would basically be about all my budget could handle. Have you ventured into the "casino"or whatever they call it?

Hello Marion yes I have ventured into the casino.It is a lot of fun.Funny you said that about the nickle machines they even have penny machines but you can lose a lot of money believe it or not even with pennies or win a lot.Some of the machines are a lot of fun.I like all the games though twenty one blackjack,spanish blackjack even dice etc,.Anyway am I detecting an interested person I would love it if you and Mike would come up.Come on give yourself a break and listen to the band that played at your wedding.O by the way Frankie said most of the guys are still in the band from 1985 so it will bring back some good memories for you.Get a baby sitter and come on please with sugar on top.hahahaha.LOL Linda your friend and buddy.Hay they take reguests so you can have them play your wedding song.O and that is great we reached the 100 goal.
