On This Day In Dino-history: January 20, 1960..our Dino debuts at the Sands
Hey pallies, likes today is the hugest of huge day in Dino-history...accordin' to the Dean Martin Timeline (clicks on tagg of this post to goes there) it was 50 years ago this very Dino-day that our beloved Dino first set foot on the stage at the Sands Hotel in 'Vegas...and he did so with the rest of the Rat Pack...so likes this musta also be the time when the Pack was filmin' "Oceans 11" durin' the day.
Likes, oh oh, how likes I wishes that I had been in 'Vegas to see our great man with the rest of the pack makin' funny and croonin tunes at the Sands. Likes what a wonderful day to celebrate the life and times of our beloved Dino and his swingin' association with the Rat Pack.
As a little Dino-bonus, likes checks out the great Dino-clip of our beloved Dino and the rest of the pack playin' the Copa Room at the Sands in '63. Loves watchin' our Dino swingin'! Dino-celebratin', DMP
January 20, 1960 Makes debut at Sands Hotel where he performs with fellow Rat Pack members Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., Peter Lawford, and Joey Bishop. He was a regular there until 1968, moving to the Riviera, then the MGM Grand, and finally Bally's.
Dear Mr. Peters,
ReplyDeleteJust a quick comment to let you know that, even if I'm not so visible, I check out your blog every day. I love these pictures, and like you, wish I could have been there to experience these moments in Dino-history. Thanks for keeping him in the Now, and not letting him fade away.
Hey pallie, thanks so much Miss Gayle Carline for you words of Dino-devotion and encouragement...it is wonderful to have you leave such kind words of Dino-appreciato....been wonderin' where you are in the process of publishin' more of our beloved Benny in "Hit Or Missus"?
ReplyDeleteMan oh man pal! That makes three of us! It must have been an unbelievable time! One can only imagine the fun they had. We can still keep the fun goin' with great sites like this one! Keep up the great job pal!

Hey pallie, Danny-o likes thanks so much for your vote of Dino-approval....how I wishes I coulda goes back in time to experience our Dino in 'Vegas...what a rad time it had to be...totally totally cool....
ReplyDeleteThe beginning of an era!
ReplyDeleteI wish that the era will still with us.
Wait!
It IS still with us. We have memories and photographic/videgraphic records of that wonderful era.
I'm so glad that such technology was available while Dino was still walking this earth.
Hey pallie, couldn't agree with you more Miss AOW..."I'm so glad that such technology was available while Dino was still walking this earth." Who woulda thought back in the days when our Dino began makin' Dino-history that we woulda be able to watch and listen to so much of this Dino-history...technology is helpin' the Dino-legacy grow by leaps and bounds...and ain't that a kick in the head!
