The Valley Forge Music Fair was one of my first pro gigs, it was in  
1961.............I think.  Joe DiPolis was the house contractor. Was  
Tony Marchione the house contractor when you played there in the  
'70s?  We played lots of Broadway shows in those days. The first time  
I played West Side Story was at the Music Fair. Only two very busy  
trumpet parts in the summer tent version. "The Good Ol' Days".......
