Doo Wop Music Trivia
From: Carol Hovelmann
I meant to send that Music Trivia email with a little note to say "hi" and that I thought it might be something fun to put on the blog. I wasn't sure how to do that, or whether or not I should, so I'm sending it to you to do with as you will.
Best regards,
Carol

We were surprised by a special Broadway Performance by Andrew Cassese and Philip Cassese.
The selection, "Me and my Shadow," was first made popular by Frank Sinatra, and Sammy Davis Jr. The "Rat Pack" comes alive again!

Update:
Lloyd Roberts Quintet to Play at Casa Basso in the Hamptons
UPDATE: 7 alumni want to attend.
On Sunday June 3, 2012 members of the Lloyd Roberts Quintet, together with alumna John Cassese, will be entertaining at the Casa Basso in Westhampton. John currently plays at the Casa Basso, and the entire band will be featured for this special event.
Most Sachem alumni from the classes of 1959 through 1975 would be intimately familiar with the Lloyd Roberts Quintet, because they played at what was then a night club called the Country Tavern, in Farmingville, and also at the Bridal Path in Westhampton.
I attended a LRQ event last year and had a wonderful time. The LRQ played music from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. I found myself singing "Sweet Caroline," dancing to "Shout;" and raising my hands in the air! Once my wife saw me thrust my hands into the air, she smiled and said," wow, this is just like it was at the Country Tavern!" The spirit of the Lloyd Roberts Quintet once again came alive!
I decided to send an Email to John Cassese, telling him that we had a fantastic time at the Casa Basso function. I was thinking that it would be wonderful if he could have another affair at the Casa Basso. John also thought that it would be fun to have another event at the CB. How bizarre is that?
How many of you would be interested in attending this event at the Casa Basso? Everyone is invited! Bring your friends! It would be wonderful if Sachem Alumni from our group could attend this affair.
Please respond to this email if you think you may be attending. This affair is "informal;" just show up! If you want drinks, buy drinks; if you want dinner just buy dinner!
This is starting to get exciting!
Date: Sunday June 3, 2012
Time: 2 PM to 6 PM
Place: Casa Basso. 59 Montauk Highway, Westhampton, NY,11977

My Brooklyn Rock and Roll Heritage
Ben Vitale
I am very proud of my "Brooklyn, NY," heritage. I refuse to relinquish, my Brooklyn accent often called "Brooklynese." My Brooklyn accent; it is an integral part of what I am today. Yes, I do not always speak "Brooklynese;" I flaunt my accent only when I am with friends!
As I recall my days in Brooklyn; it was not "drugs, sex and rock and roll," but "good times and rock and roll." As a youth in Brooklyn, I found myself out dancing and meeting new people sometimes three nights a week. My crowd would regularly socialize at "youth dances," that were held at the local, K of C, the Jewish Center, and at local social clubs.
In the 50s people could get involved, helping and guiding the local youth without fear of being sued. I learned Ju Jitsu, and Boxing at the local Italian Social Club; taught by a retired officer from the United States Marines. When two young adults had a serious confrontation with each other, the coach at the social club would drag the individuals into the club, put Boxing Gloves on them, and have them settle their problem.
In the "City" the youth participated in what we called "Seasons." At certain pre-defined times of the year we as a group participated in the same type of activity. We had "the Carpet Shooter Season," the "Pea Shooter Season, Yo-yo Season, Marble Season, Scooter Season, Sports Card Season, and "Balsa Wood Plane Flying Season." On Halloween we would put crushed chalk into a Sock and hit each other with these powder filled bags; we all came back home at night looking like Snow Men.
Every night a crowd of about 40 youths would "hang out," on the corner. The adults were not at all intimidated by such a large crowd of youths, because they knew all of our parents. One word from a neighbor to our parents would get us into serious trouble.
During the Winter months we would eagerly wait for the first snowfall. Sides would be chosen and Two Snow Forts would be built. We would throw Snow Balls at each other for Four months!
During the summer we would take the Subway for 10 cents and go to Coney Island. No trip to Coney Island was complete without buying a "Hot Dog and a Nedicks Orange Drink," for 25 cents at Nathans. On days that we did not go to Coney Island, we went to Sunset Pool.
We were all just too busy to get into trouble. In between the "Seasons," we played "Kick the Can," Stick Ball, and "Johnny on the Pony." All of the above was held together by a strong foundation of "Rock and Roll;" Alan Freed was "The Man!"
Many of the youth at that time were actively involved with "a Singing Group;" we all worked feverously, hoping to be discovered by, Alan Freed. Please enjoy the "Rock and Roll," narration by "Angelo the Barber," all presented with a genuine Brooklyn accent! Hope this brings back memories!

From Anthony Perna:
That was excellent, it mirrored my childhood growing up in Manhatten..all the same stuff, the seasons the games, the people, joe nose, philly gabadeal, johnny cutrate. Did I see Ringaleveo,,as a game? opening the Johnny pumps in summer...Italian ices..(the real ones) Italian feasts, block parties. Yes it was something ,,we had the best of both worlds,,the city and the country.....I remember your father,, a quiet man as I remember,, was he a painter? and your Mom,,how she used to yell at Anthony...lol he was thick, your poor Mom!
From Pat Brida:
Hi Ben, Just had to respond to this. I grew up in Brooklyn too. Had to be very close to your house. I got lost when I was five and yes it was in Sunset park. My sense of direction was good back then and I walked home. Mom was frantic of course. I lived on 53rd st and Fort Hamilton Parkway. Thats where all the fun happened. Johnny on the Pony, ringolivio, marbles, stoop ball, King, queen Jack, Johnny may I cross your River, Red Light green light, rolllar skateing (metal clamps and skate keys) box scooters, yo yo,s , plastic bubbles, pitching charmes, I declare war on;;;;, the spalding ball and Jump rope (two on time) etc etc took place. And who can forget the subway last stop Coney Island . Remember the penut man ? How about the custard cones and the steeple chase park with the big slide and the horses on the track. Was that you on the merry go round catching the gold ring. Did you go to prospect park and ride the swan boats? I moved in 1956 to Lake Ronkonkoma so I missed the Alan Freed days, I do remember the guys harmonizing in the subway and entrances to store fronts. The Lake was a blast and Hollywood beach during high school was my home away from home. My brother bought me the book "Images of America Lake Ronkonkoma by Keith Oswald and Dale Spencer . Lots of Photos including hollywood beach. Go to www.arcadiapublishing.com . Gotta go now. Keep in touch Pat Brida.
From John Cassese:
Ben, like others, I loved this piece. It brought back great memories. I learned that Pat Brida is a Brooklynite...went to school with her. Have known her over 50 years and just learned she is from Brooklyn. Your blog is amazing...best John
From Brenda Sichenzia:
Loved your article. I was born in Brooklyn but my family moved to Lake Ronkonkoma when I was 2. I did go to the Brooklyn Paramount several times to see the Alan Fried shows. They were fantastic. People dancing in the aisles. Just fabulous. When I lived in California, I travelled by public transportation and walking on part of the highway just to get to see a Rock 'N Roll show in Oakland. After I moved back to New York City, I went to several shows at Madison Square Garden. Now most of them are held in Pittsburgh, PA. Even though I live in PA, Pittsburgh is about a seven hour drive. Hoping to see a venue nearer to home one of these days. Have to go. I am at work.

UPDATE # 3
120 Members
Please invite your Sachem friends to join our Facebook group!
Sachem Alumni New Facebook Group
I have been totally amazed at the response to our Sachem Alumni 1959 - 1965 "Facebook Group." This group was originally set up to help with our Reunion in 2010; and hasn't been used much. Recently Facebook advised me that I was the only member, and the Group would be canceled if I quit.
Rather than loose the site, I advised our membership of its existence; we now have 120 members; wow!
Unlike our Blog, Alumni are able to talk directly to each other; the response has been wonderful! Direct conversation, without a time delay that you get with our Blog! I will keep the Blog active, but wouldn't it be wonderful if every member of our Alumni Group could participate in our "Facebook Group?" So far about one half of our group has joined our Facebook Group. I am hoping that the remaining members could join our group.
How do I do this?
First sign-up for a Facebook account. http://www.facebook.com/
Then request joining our group at. http://www.facebook.com/groups/58645312298/
Caution #1 Do not set-up Facebook on a Business Computer; you will get many notifications of activity on your email.
Caution #2 Anything posted to facebook can appear anywhere, and disappear without notice. Any announcement such as a Reunion Announcement is better placed on our Blog; at least it doesn't move. This fixed location can be linked multiple times in Facebook.

From Priscilla Kolb Pierce:
I mentioned that I would host a reunion in 2012 in Ocala, Florida while we were celebrating the class of 1960’s 50th reunion. I am still committed to this but need to know who will be interested in attending. I am thinking of mid to late October 2012 and would like to know besides who would like to attend but also what events you would be interested in. My plan is to have the reunion base at the Holiday Inn with the ice-breaker dinner at the SkyFusion Asian restaurant (http://www.ocalasky.com/ ) on the sixth floor of the hotel. On Saturday, I think a picnic at Rainbow Springs (http://www.floridastateparks.org/rainbowsprings/ ) in Dunnellon. Sunday is open for suggestions but I think since Ocala is the horse capital of the world, that horseback riding (http://www.cactusjackstrailrides.com/ ) would be nice.

From Gerry Jacobs Horal '64
CBS officially released the teams of Season 20 of The Amazing Race January 25 and there was a half page article in Newsday last week and the Sachem Patch....We have been under what you might call a gag order for months and could not breath a word of this till CBS released all the information...
Jerry's Son Daniel Will be in "The Great Race"
My comment about the bag over my head was tongue in cheek...Daniel can actually be quite the comedian..but is also very competitive..so this show was right up his alley..We have been on pins and needles for weeks waiting to finally see what happened as he traveled around the world.
It is 'amazing' how people are either crazy fans of The Amazing Race or they have never watched....
The first show of the 20th Season will be February 19th on CBS at 8pm...
This is going to be quite the exciting winter for us...first the Super Bowl and the Giants and next the Race...
Hope you get a chance to watch and enjoy...
