Hi Stan,

My sister's name is Karen and we went to Holy Spirit while all our friends from the projects went to public school. My father is Danny and my Theresa. She passed away two years ago. I have lost contact with many people from the old days but have numerous fond memories of life back then.
My dad coached a little league team Eddies Luncheonette.He did that for one year.
I am in contact with Nathan Screier from 176th Street and Mike Cerio from Popham Avenue and Maria Gornie from University Avenue.

In the late 50's my band band played in Our Lady of Solace school, every friday.

I AM ALSO IN MY LATE 50'S AND WENT TO SOLACE DANCES. I THOUGHT THEY WERE ON SATURDAY NITE, THOUGH. USED TO GO DOWN STAIRS TO EAT HOT DOGS. I ALSO HAD A BAND CALLED THE MOTIVATIONS. WHAT WAS YOUR BAND'S NAME?
JOE

Joe you are 100% percent correct. It was Saturday. The name of my band was JOHNNY D.and the Spark tones. I started the day at OLS in 1954 and my Father and Mother worked the food down stairs.

HEY JOHNNY, THE SPARK TONES SOUNDS FAMILIAR. I AM 58 YEARS OLD AND WENT TO THE DANCES IN THE MID 60'S. BANDS CALLED MOZART'S PEOPLE, THE DUCANES AND MANY I CAN'T REMEMBER. WAS THIS AROUND THE TIME YOU PLAYED THERE? THEY WERE GOOD TIMES.
JOE

Hi Joe,
I played in Solace from 1954 to 1961. In 1961 I was drafted in the US Army. I am now living in Jacksonville Florida and have a new band call the manhattans that plays in the Italian America club.
I work on mainframe computers, System Programmer. Someday I will retire when I am 75; I will be 71 in April 27 2009. I went to Cardinal Hayes from 52 to 56.

Joe,
I believe the gem tones were playing the time my band was playing in Solace.

SOLD MY HAMMOND B-3, VOX SYNTHESIZER, MELLOTRON AND HOHNER ELECT PIANO BEFORE I MOVED HERE. I WOULD LIKE TO GET A SET OF VIBES AND HAVE AN ACOUSTIC JAZZ QUARTET WHEN I RETIRE.
