... & OTHER ODDBALL STORIES

For years now I've been singing classical music at weddings in the London area. One of my close friends, Jim Mercante, from Brantford was getting hitched, and he asked me if I'd sing at the service.

The day of the wedding I was in particularily good voice, and things went great.  After the service was over, Sly (my keyboard player) and myself were packing up the gear when an older gentleman came up to me and started complimenting me on my voice.

He told me I had done a marvelous job and that he had really enjoyed my singing.  When we finally got to the reception, someone pointed out the same older gentleman and said, "You know who that is?" I said, "Yeah, it's the guy that likes my voice!" He said, "No, that's Walter, Walter Gretzky!"
