Lt. larry Newman, USMC SFMF established the beachhead. FOR publication from the Lt. ralph fatello, 'Nam vet/Vinny band/bad dude wants to record "Semper Fi Mutha fucka" with me/the Lt. and Wayne Podworny, those four marines being the Four Horsemen of the Apolocypse, Now AND welcome to your worst nightmare! leon Rich had all singing along with "please release me"; what is this, the Jim-10? (YIKES!! Brings back memories of Saturdays in Holliston!! Those were good times though, my Mom loved Engelbert Humperdinck-ed)

Rob Lynch, of Southie's Ribageddon fame, had all singing along with "bad Boy Leroy brown" ALMOST the last song Linda Garreau heard as her car flipped on Watkins Glen.
