I not only remember my parents watching Guy Lombardo, I watched Guy Lombardo and the Royal Canadians every New Year's Eve. My mom and dad were married in 1940, and they remembered his band well.

He joked that when he died, he was going to take New Year's Eve with him.
My parents went to the Frog Hop ballroom in St. Joseph, Missouri to see Guy Lombardo and the Royal Canadians in the late 50s. I also watched him and his band on TV for new years eve telecasts through the 50s and 60s.
