- The blogmeister is also the webmaster behind the very successful Welk Musical Family.com. I have been a fan of Lawrence Welk since I was a youngster (not too long ago!) and have watched (and taped) his show every Saturday night on my local PBS station, WGTE and sometimes WBGU. My hometown and current residence is Toledo, Ohio and in recent years, I have attended many of their live concerts and had the chance to meet many of the wunnerful music makers as well.
Played in Mickeys Big Band in Phoenix back in the early 1950,s before i went in to the USAF Band unit.
ReplyDeleteGreat person and fine trumpet player.
RIP Mickey
