I know, but as the owner said when he called me "ya know, play some regular crap, but as the tourists start coming in, they expect to hear all the stereotypical italian stuff, so just throw em in here and there"

If you are going for the "stereotypical italian stuff", how about Mambo Italiano? (although HIG is going on record as not wanting that song, I really enjoy it.)

I have been looking forward to the Festival for a few months now and have invited everyone I know. Been watching the weather and it looks like it won't be the wash out that they were predicting a week ago.

Does anyone know what time the procession of the saints will be? I want to make sure I'm well situated when it comes by.

See everyone there!

I used to live on 8th st at Catherine and the 1st year I woke up one morning to that dirgey horn music wafting up from the street below. Didn't quite know what to make of it. I look forward to it every year now.

Hubba you're not the Elvis impersonator with the jail bait dancers are ya?
