A friend of mine from Bagley Elementary and Wilson Jr. High was Dave Romano. Dave is pictured  with other members of Woody Carr and the Entertainers.  I remember Dave as being very intelligent, especially in Math and Science.  After Jr. High, Dave attended Ingraham High, and I went off to Lincoln High.  Both of us were members of the Class of l965.

While at Ingraham, Dave apparently took up the guitar, and was also a football player/basketball player.  I lost touch with Dave until the year l968.  I walked into a bar near Sea-Tac Airport; there was Dave on stage, with very long hair, just "wailing out" on guitar!!!  He was with Woody Carr at that time.  I said hello Dave at a break, but I wasn't sure if he remembered me at that time.  So here is the "rest of the story".  A mutual friend of mine and Dave set up a meeting of the three of us... this was 30 years later!!  We visited Dave at his mother's house, where he had been living for some time.  It turned out that Dave didn't pursue music after the mid-70's; like most musicians of that era, he eventually embraced the necessity of working for a living.  However, a highlight of our visit with Dave was his playing of an old cassette tape of him playing with Woody Carr!!  He sounded very strong on guitar; very bluesey, as was the trend in the late 60's.
