I really enjoyed your performance. Thank you!

I don't know. It's missing from last year. Someone had to remove it, it was secured by concrete and metal posts.

LMFAO!!! 🤣🤣🤣

She sang great! I love it.

No problemo. It was a ton of fun to see you!

Thank you for still being involved with Carl.

It's on the north side Broadway, just before the Promenade. Right on the main drag.

My Mom, Gwen Marier, wrote this song and composed the music

HowISeeIt Archie McPhee's in Seattle (Fremont area?) had the postcards for sale when I was there a few months back. That's where I got them.

Frank Sugia (b. 1920, d. 1994) Frank Sugia was known as Seattle's most popular entertainer. He played with Jackie Souders at the Olympic Hotel's Spanish Ballroom in 1936 and in later years he opened the Olympic Bowl with Joe Venuti. The same day he graduated from Seattle's Franklin High School he went to San Francisco to work with Paul Martin's Band. He and Joe Venuti performed for Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. Sugia attended the University of Washington, studying composition and arranging. He worked with some of the finest musicians, including Joe Venuti, Hayden Shaner, Gary Steele, Floyd Standifer, Dave Stetler, Mike Hobi, Don Anderson, Dean Hodges, Bob Winn, Glenn Martin, Donald Rogers, Red Kelly, Bud Schultz, Don Smith, Al Turay, Dave Coleman, Al Wied, Glenn Martin, Rollie Morehouse, Tiny Martin, Mori Simon and Gene Sargent, among many others. Some of his closest friends and associates include Norm Bobrow, Gene Boscacci, Vito Santori, Stan Boreson, Al Bianchi, Albert and Victor Rosellini, Frank D’Aquila, Larry Nelson, Walt Evans and Joe Petosa. For three decades Sugia led the strolling minstrels at Frederick & Nelson each Christmas season, and delighted children at the department store's yearly Christmas Breakfast, with special guest, "Santa Claus.” The minstrels performed seven days a week, starting the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and ending on Christmas Eve. In 1969 Frank opened his own restaurant, Sugia's After Five, located on Aurora Avenue North in Seattle, while still performing at some of the best known clubs in town, including The Casa Villa, The Town and Country Club (the dinner set, preceding Wyatt Howard's Orchestra), Rosellini's 410, The Olympic Bowl, The Golden Nugget in Las Vegas, The Red Carpet, The Italian Village, The Sirloin Inn, The Casa Villa, The 908 Club, The Carriage Inn, The Elks, Dave’s Fifth Avenue, The Thunderbird (hotel chain), the Washington Athletic Club and the Trianon Ballroom, to name a few. According to Sugia, the after-hours clubs were the places that musicians hung out to hear "real music" and jam with other players, strictly for the love of jazz, as opposed to their nightly gigs where musicians performed commercial music, primarily for their audience. Players couldn't wait to finish their regular gigs to listen to the best jazz, blues and swing musicians that were playing at after-hours joints like the Black and Tan, The Congo, The 908 Club, The 605 Club and the Cabbie Club, located in Seattle's International District and in Seattle's Central District. In 1962, during the Seattle Word's Fair, Sugia and his trio were aired live at the Space Needle on KOMO TV (channel 4 Seattle) for a series called "World's Fair Holiday.”
