Update from Frankie Gentile-
Just an Update –
Earl will be in town during Fiesta and will be playing a show Thursday Night of Fiesta down at Captian Carlos along with EXIT 11 with a portion of the proceeds going to the JJ Nicastro Fund. It will be a great night of Music, and a chance to hear this great song LIVE!
Earl and Arch
Here is a song by two friends of mine Earl and Arch. They both are Gloucester natives but now live in The St. Pete Beach area of Florida. Earl wrote this song a while back. I put some of my own video and stills together and grabbed some of the net. This should be the official GMG song.

Tony Testaverde
This weekend at the GGAPIII I will be presenting a video of a conversation that I had with Karen McCormack about her dad, Tony Testaverde. This photo is the last time he carried the statue of St. Peter (in 2007) and as Karen says, he’d still be carrying it now except his doctor said no! He’ll be home this week from Arizona kicking up his heels as usual!
Here is a video clip done by the Times about Tony right before he carried it for the 65th year. —Sharon

Red Baron Lobster Boat Model At GMHC Gift Shop
Here’s another comparison of The Red Baron lobster boat model and Mark Ring’s lobster boat The Stanley Thomas. Note the same windows in the trunk cabin. Note the same color scheme. Note the same hand rails along the roof. Mark Ring has since taken the windows out of the trunk cabin in The Stanley Thomas (the photo was taken in 2002).

Red Baron Lobster Boat Model At GMHC Gift Shop

Normally I wouldn’t post a picture of a Lobster Boat Model but in this case, this particular lobster boat model looked almost like an exact replica of the Stanley Thomas, Mark Ring’s Lobster Boat. They sell these models at The GMHC gift shop.
