Yesterday at work, I noticed a co-worker’s t-shirt read, “Support local music.” I thought that was definitely something Mohawk Valley Girl should do. What I didn’t know was that opportunity awaited me that very night!
I had suggested another shop and dine evening, with the dinner part at Fratello’s Pizzeria in Frankfort, NY. When I got home from work, Steven told me Phil Arcuri was playing there from 6 to 8 p.m. Perfect!
We sat at the bar, right across from where Phil was going to play, and ordered wine and food. I got angel hair pasta with a meatball. Steven got the shrimp basket with fries. Yum! We both brought leftovers home, and I am really looking forward to eating mine!
He is a great musician!
Arcuri plays great tunes from the ’60’s and ’70’s. I chair danced to most of them and sang along with the ones I knew the words to. I was not the only one singing along.
Another angle.
I took a few pictures of Arcuri, but I did not manage to catch his smile. It is a pleasure to watch such a talented musician who is so obviously enjoying himself. I’m sure everyone there was having fun.
My delightful date for the evening.
I took a picture of Steven. He tried to take one of me, but the Tablet would not cooperate. I finally managed to take an ussie (I’m better at ussies than selfies, but not really good at either).
I guess we don’t look too bad.
We had a wonderful time. I look forward to the next time we hear Phil Arcuri, and to our next great meal at Fratello’s.
