Felix! Come back. Give the Village People a second chance. Let me do the advertising and I guarentee a full house.

Gene can sing lead on the Felix songs just like Butler sings "Do You Believe in Magic" (and plays an autoharp). Before he went to NYC, he fronted a grouup in Rochester, NY. What is really sad is that the Daily Sun ran a story after the "Spoonful" played here. They quoted some residents who said they always wanted to see the "Spoonful". I just wanted to say, "Well, you still didn't see them."
I got the chance to meet David Brigati a few years ago when he was reunited with Joey Dee (and Bobby Valli). I got him to autograph my Once Upon a Dream CD. Nice guy.
Well, I can name the members of the Who, Kinks, Hollies, DC5, Animals, Herman's Hermits (and don't get me started about Barry Whitman fronting a group called Herman's Hermits or Johnny Steel fronting the Animals). My spelling would be way off! Was it Pete Quaife who was the bass player for the Kinks?
