Liberace still great then and now On my parents 25th annv (2 yrs before my Mom died), he played at the old Latin Casino in NJ. our cousin was able to get front table seats right by the stage. Mr L came to the table to wish my parents a most happy anniversary, kissed my Moms hand and a heartfelt shake of hand to pop. He played the Lovielest night of the Year my parents fav, had to play that several times a week for them on the organ. Funny 7 decades later and I remember this so well. Thank you Mr L for your kindness Pax+

Actually... his home was in West Allis, which is a suburb just west of Milwaukee.My Grandmother and her sister used to hang out with "Walter" and George.She had great stories of how much fun he was to be with. Walter introduced my grandparents to each other, which resulted in their first date.So in a way ...Liberace, is the reason that my dad (...then me) were born.

I didn't intend it as an "attempt of humor" and I don't honestly care if people think it is funny or not. However, you all are dealing with a very controversial subject that will never be fully settled in everyone's hearts. Stop doing it, I've seen people with very different beliefs live happily together. Why can't you? Lastly, I would like to apologize for anybody who I offended, especially people like burt eriksson. I didn't mean to hurt anybody, I'll watch my language in the future.

I saw Liberace's stage show twice, both times in my early teens back in the late sixties and early seventies. Even though that was a long time ago, I still have vivid memories of those shows, unlike the shows of many other performers I've seen over the years whose performances have tended to be forgettable. Liberace was an amazing, charismatic performer, the likes of which the world will probably never see again. His moniker "Mr. Showmanship" was truly well deserved!

I was fortunate to have seen Liberace twice in person in the early 1970s. This may sound strange, but I can tell you that both times I felt he really appreciated ME being there to see him. Such was his charisma and his rapport with his audience. Liberace was that rare example of an entertainer who truly loves his fans and knows they are a big reason for his success. Both times I saw him I left the show feeling I had just visited with a good friend. I have never felt that before or since with any other performer.

"Beer Barrel Polka", also known as "The Barrel Polka" and "Roll Out the Barrel", is a song which became popular worldwide during World War II. The music was composed by the Czech musician Jaromír Vejvoda in 1927.[1] Eduard Ingriš wrote the first arrangement of the piece, after Vejvoda came upon the melody and sought Ingriš's help in refining it. At that time, it was played without lyrics as "Modřanská polka" ("Polka of Modřany"). Its first text was written later (in 1934) by Václav Zeman - with the title "Škoda lásky"[2] ("Wasted Love"). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_Barrel_Polka

Hans Holmers privatchaufför Rolf Dahlgren har sagt att han körde omkring HH i Stockholm mordnatten medan HH sa att han var på väg upp för att köra Vasaloppet. Rolf Dahlgren blev sedan hotad och trakasserad och fick sitt liv förstört. Bägge är nu döda. HH sa vid ett tillfälle att om sanningen om mordet skulle komma fram så skulle det sända chockvågor genom det svenska samhället och störta regeringen. Senare blev han inkallad till konstitutionsutskottet och fick frågan om vad han menade, men han vägrade att svara. Han sa att det skulle ta alldeles för lång tid att förklara. Detta mord stinker lång väg!

I remember staring at it for quite a while having been stuck in line after a performance in that place. And sometimes I'd take a look just 'cause it was fascinating that there was a celebrity from this place I normally called prison.. lol Great artist.
