The Big A

Aqueduct Racetrack is a place I've spent ton of time and money.I'm in a tunnel that runs under the stretch here. The place is in trouble, nobody knows what is going to happen to the joint....but is in the hands of the politicians......and remember "Horses don't bet on people and neither do I"

Only the mediocre are always at their best!


Sometimes a man has to dig deep into what is left of his soul and ask himself one question "Are you happy"? I suggest you be careful when you do it.

I'll see you 'round......like a donut.


September is going to be a month of change for little ole' me. doing new things in a different way. Home studio........all sorts of risky little things....all the while just trying to be a true and strong Father.....remember "Life without music is not worth living".............and "Everybody's friend is nobody's"......No explanations needed

Johnnie Walker


My Great Uncle Johnnie Walker was a silent screen actor. Talk about guts and a sense of adventure.....this must have been one smooth talking cat. I heard some classic tales from relatives about him.....He drove a Rolls but never had a dime.....I'm glad this blood is flowing around in me.

Howard Beach

This is Smitty's in Old Howard Beach N.Y. I was born around the corner from this bar in 1969. I worked there,drank there and performed there too many times to count. My birthday is coming up and I just feel like singing...it is all I can do and really all I ever could do...I would have sang at Smitty's but it is gone.....so I'm going around the corner to The Rail...I'm going to sing...I have to. It is all that is left.
