Is it ok to be jealous of your kids? I hope so. This summer my daughter Ally spent 6 weeks studying in Spain. After classes, my wife flew over to meet her and they spent the next 2 weeks traveling…

Every once in awhile, something happens that changes everything.  Smallpox is cured.  The internet is invented.  Your baby is born.  Musically, one of those moments happened in New York on March 2 and April 22, 1959.  On those dates, the…

I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time.  The day I say goodbye to my room.  We’ve been together for 25 years.  Even longer if you count the time we spent together before we got serious. 

We were…

Zembo Mosque.  Even the name sounds cool!  But if you've ever been in the place, you know that's just the beginning.  Vinyl Groov played a private event at the mosque this past Saturday night and I was once again reminded…

All the way to Lancaster? What?! When I first moved to Lititz from Lancaster about 18 years ago I was surprised to hear that phrase over and over again.  All the way to Lancaster? What does that mean? 

People seemed…

In hindsight, I was all worked up over nothing.  But at the time, I was so stressed I didn’t know what to do with myself.  So I ate too much.  Then I didn’t eat enough.  I slept too much.  Then…

This past year was my rookie season in the “record sales” department. The Cat’s Pajamas Old School Jazz Band released an album over the summer, and the Fulginiti Family Band released a holiday single for charity. Both were fun and…

Aren't there enough versions of Jingle Bells already?  We don't think so!  The Fulginiti Family Band is proud to announce the release of our first annual holiday single- Jingle Bells.  This year, all proceeds are going to Music For Everyone…
