Our fellow Alumnus, John Cassese, will be playing with most of the members from the original Lloyd Roberts Quintet, at the Pine Grove Inn, in East Patchohue, NY. One band member lives in Florida, and will not be available to play at this event.
This event will be featuring Joe Cherko Jr., a drummer who comes from a family with a musical history. His father also Joe Cherko, was entertaining at many Night Clubs throughout Long Island, in the late 50s and 60s. Different generation, but from the same root. His drum style should sound familiar!
The people that attended "Lloyd Roberts Quintet Reunion 2006," are being contacted! We do expect a fantastic crowd, filled with that perpetual energy, that we have cultivated!
Barring some unforeseen circumstances, my wife Marie and I will be attending. Any Alumni that attend will be welcome to sit with Marie and I; just ask John to point us out.

Sounds like fun, Ben. But the drive from North Carolina is a little bit of a commute. If you see any of our classmates, please remember me to them.

I was just checking out the Blog. and It mentioned John's Band playing at the Pine Grove Inn on Saturday. Sept 1st. I would love to go!. I am very excited about going on Saturday, Since I have no plans for the evening. I will be coming alone. Do I have to make reservations? Or is it a place where there are people just dropping in? I was there many years ago, when My dad used to play there. (Buddy sandy).... Please e mail me, and let me know. Thanks so much.....

Hi Ben,
I really wish I could attend the reunion of John's band this year but am also booked for that weekend. I hope to get out there again (from the Poconos) sometime again before November and hear the band in person. Sweet memories....

I was hoping the reunion would be later on in September. I am having company that weekend so I won't be able to attend.
