If you\u2019re from the New Jersey area, you know Uncle Floyd. If you\u2019ve ever watched Conan O\u2019Brien\u2019s show, you know the show\u2019s band, led by musical director and lead guitarist Jimmy Vivino and features his brother Jerry Vivino on sax.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">They\u2019re the younger brothers of Uncle Floyd Vivino. As the official photographer of The Uncle Floyd Show back in the day, I\u2019ve known these guys for about 40 years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">This is the original trailer for the documentary.

You can see Jimmy on guitar and Jerry wailing away on sax. The handsome guy with the drumsticks is Frank Pagano, who you just saw in the video.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I have no idea where that version of the shot came from, so here\u2019s a better version:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14923\" src=\"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/3-Vivino-Brothers-Band-1-15-83-Club-Bene-No.-14-WM-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"900\" height=\"686\" srcset=\"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/3-Vivino-Brothers-Band-1-15-83-Club-Bene-No.-14-WM-min.jpg 900w, https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/3-Vivino-Brothers-Band-1-15-83-Club-Bene-No.-14-WM-min-768x585.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Floyd has an 8pm Tuesday night show on StageIt.com that I recommend you all check out. In it, he and cast member Scott Gordon show (and comment on) old UFS shows from the late 70s and first half of the 80s that Scott personally preserved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Some of the bits are absolutely hilarious!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">These shows are not repeated nor are they archived, so it\u2019s one showing only and that\u2019s it. Either you see it at 8pm on Tuesday nights or you don\u2019t ever again. It requires a $5 ticket from StageIt and tickets are limited.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">If you\u2019re interested, go here:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\"><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stageit.com\/uncle_floyd_and_scott_gordon\/this_was_the_uncle_floyd_show_44_with_uncle_floyd_and_scott_gordon_live\/103253\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000; font-size: 14px;\">https:\/\/www.stageit.com\/uncle_floyd_and_scott_gordon\/this_was_the_uncle_floyd_show_44_with_uncle_floyd_and_scott_gordon_live\/103253<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; color: #000000;\"><span style=\"font-size: 24px;\">(This link is ONLY for the 12-14-21 show!

(OK, Floyd &#8211; there\u2019s your plug)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">During one of those shows last month, Floyd mentioned that his brothers were flying in from CA to do a show with him and others on December 2, 2021 in the auditorium of Glen Rock High School.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I wasn\u2019t aware of the BFGRH documentary, but I hadn\u2019t seen Jimmy and Jerry since last century and thought this might be a good time to get pictures of the three brothers together. Quite frankly, we\u2019re all old &#8211; how many other opportunities might there be to do this again?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I have to go to this show.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">By the time I found out where to buy tickets, they were sold out, so I had to try to do this officially &#8211; something I haven\u2019t done in a LONG time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I still have Floyd\u2019s number, so I called him to see if he knew who handled photo passes. He didn\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I called the school and left a message telling them who I was, what I needed and asking whom do I speak with to get this done.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I got a call back the next morning telling me to call someone named Barry Rubinow: \u201cHe\u2019s in charge\u201d. I left a message with Barry (who turned out to be the producer of the whole shebang). He called right back and said \u201cNo problem\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">And there wasn\u2019t. I told him I\u2019d also like to shoot the rehearsal, where things are a little looser and I could talk to people and get the lay of the land. You don\u2019t want to start doing that 5 minutes before showtime.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">\u201cGet there between 3 and 4pm. Parking may be a problem.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">So I called the school again and spoke with another very helpful person, who said, \u201c3 o\u2019clock is the worst time because of parents picking up their kids, but if you come at 3:20, that\u2019s done with and most of the teachers have left. Park right in front near the flagpole\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">She was right.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I was told that security would be VERY tight. I envisioned a phalanx of 7-foot goons with cavemen clubs, but when I walked in, it was empty\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026oh wait &#8211; there\u2019s a man behind plexiglass in a little booth against the left wall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">\u201cCan I help you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Barry told me beforehand to say I\u2019m with the film crew, so I did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">\u201cMay I have your license, please?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">After a minute, he handed it back to me, along with this:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14924\" src=\"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/4-IMG_1875-12-4-21-WM-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"533\" height=\"750\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Oh, great &#8211; my horrible license picture is on this and I\u2019m now \u201cRobert\u201d. Guess what I turned backwards for the rest of the night. (Note: After the night was over, I thought about a little photo project I <em>should<\/em> have done &#8211; gone around and asked to shoot everyone\u2019s pass, especially Jimmy\u2019s brothers, Florio and Jerome.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I found the auditorium and, ultimately, Barry, who was with a small group that included Floyd, who looked at me and said \u201cBob &#8211; you made it!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">\u201cPiece of cake\u201d, I replied.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I then met Barry, who pointed to the stage where the rehearsal was in full swing and said \u201cGo do your thing\u201d. So I did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">There were 3 or 4 video guys in front of and on the stage who were moving around, so stage and very close to it were off-limits. I was further limited by my little camera, which had to use a too-long-to-hold-steady exposure, so I wound up taking most of my rehearsal shots from the second or third row of seats. This let me steady my shots on the seatback in front of me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I also had my iPhone with me, which I like to use for panoramic shots and backstage portraits. Everything comes out nicely without having to fiddle around with settings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">So, I\u2019m going to start off with the 22 passable rehearsal shots I took, in the order I took them, with the little Canon held down tightly on the back of the seat &#8211; which was NOT flat &#8211; in front of me, beginning with a group performance shot where everyone isn\u2019t visible:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;

behind the last row, near\/next to the soundboard, which was against the back wall. I would still have the same exposure problems, but no seatback in front of me to steady the camera on.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Fortunately, I thought to bring a tripod, which is usually a no-no at concerts and something I had never used in the 1,100 or so concerts\/events I shot during my career. If I didn\u2019t bring the tripod, I would have gotten nothing of the show.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">But now there\u2019s another problem &#8211; a BIG one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Even with a tripod, the act of hitting the shutter button when you\u2019re shooting long exposures will &#8211; by itself &#8211; cause shake and ruin a picture. There\u2019s only ONE option open to me in that situation: using the timer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I have never had to deal with a situation like this before. The art of shooting concerts is dependent on the photographer\u2019s timing &#8211; to anticipate a movement and hit the shutter at the exact moment that the peak of the action occurs and capture a magnificent freeze-frame that magazines and fans will want to buy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">You absolutely can NOT do that when you have to use a 2-second timer that eliminates shake (and your ability to capture the moments you want). How do you anticipate what a performer will be doing when the shutter opens a couple of seconds later?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Well, you do what you can and hope for the best. There\u2019s no other choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">OK, so now that you\u2019re all weeping for me, let MY show begin and see what you think.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I started off with a group shot that I converted to Black &amp; White.

The place was practically empty except for man-of-the-hour\/night\/event Joe Sielski, who was talking with someone while packing up his sax<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I wound up talking to him for a while and then went home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">The next day, while I\u2019m looking through about 300 pictures, I\u2019m trying to come up with one to end the story with, but nothing fits that description.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Then I think back and realize that it was right in front of me in that band room and I didn\u2019t even think of it. What would be a better capper than a shot of Joe, triumphantly raising his sax over his head with both hands and with a huge grin on his face?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">He just had the time of his life (I\u2019m guessing) with his highly-accomplished students from 50 years ago in front of a wildly-cheering audience\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026.a shot of him bursting with pride would have put an huge exclamation point on this entire story.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">But the professional music photographer didn\u2019t think of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">But that professional music photographer DID happen to collect email addresses of some of the participants &#8211; including Joe &#8211; so I could send them this post.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I IMMEDIATELY emailed Joe, explaining what I wished I had shot and asking if he and his sax would be willing to meet with me so I could take a couple of quick shots.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">He called the next day: \u201cSure! Where and when?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">The band room &#8211; my first choice &#8211; was unavailable because school was in session and no other location really mattered. At that point, the background was unimportant, so &#8211; not wanting to inconvenience him in the least &#8211; I said, \u201cGot a blank garage wall?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">And that\u2019s what we did on December 7. I went to his home, met his lovely wife, Carolyn, and we hiked about 20 feet to the side of the garage. I took 8-10 shots of him holding his sax aloft with a big grin on his face and other poses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Total time there? 17 minutes (and he didn\u2019t have to drive anywhere)\u2026\u2026\u2026perfect!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I went home to edit the photos and started comparing the sax-in-the-air shots. They were good, but I kept finding myself drawn to another shot and ultimately decided that this shot was the best one with which to conclude this long and rambling post.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I hope you agree:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-15015\" src=\"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/94-iPhone-IMG_0800a-12-7-21-WM-min.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"380\" height=\"750\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">Thank you, Joe! <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">And thank you everyone else if you made it all the way to the end of this post.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">And WHATEVER you all do out there, make sure you find this documentary when it\u2019s released!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\"><strong>April 18, 2022 UPDATE:<\/strong> Documentary producer Barry Rubinow has informed me that the project has a new name, logo AND a new trailer (which shows the new name\/logo in the cover photo), that things are going well and that the premiere should happen sometime this Fall.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 24px;\">I had initially planned to simply switch out the original title, logo and trailer, but then thought it would be more informative to simply add any changes to show the progress as this project evolves:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"&quot;Banded Together: The Boys From Glen Rock High&quot; - trailer\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/702943657?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"904\" height=\"509\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 (ignore April 30, 2017 publish date &#8211; this was published on December 10, 2021) &nbsp; NOTE: an April 18, 2022 update has been added at the end. &nbsp; &nbsp; \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0ALL PHOTOS AND TEXT ARE \u00a9BOB LEAFE &nbsp; If you\u2019re not familiar with the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-14920","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14920"}],"version-history":[{"count":27,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16483,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14920\/revisions\/16483"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
