Syosset Then and Now: Rock Stars

Can you name this Syosset-based band from the 60s?

The bustling little Long Island town of Syosset has had many facelifts over the years. Original structures have been remodeled and replaced, leaving just a shadow of the good old days of horse-drawn carriages and general stores.

But if you look closely, sometimes you can see old Syosset hidden among the new constructions. We'll be bringing you back to the old Syosset with the help of Syosset Scrapbook and helpful photo donors.

Last time, Patch reader correctly identified the Reader recalled, "Biggest memory was seeing Animal House and then going down Jericho Tpk for dessert at Syosset House Diner."

Congrats to theresa.lally and thanks for all the memories readers shared!

This week's assignment is to tell us who these young Syosset students are. They formed a band and played for several years before breaking up in 1961.

The name of the band was The Furys. All of the members were great guys and have remained friends for life. I know because I was the drummer......Ray Orobona...On guitar was Ralph Stanio and Joe Getz and our vocalist was Vinny Messina. Through out the years that we played together we had various other musicians play with us....But the mainstay was Ray, Joe, Ralph and Vinny......AAAhhh to be young again......

For instance, critical thinking is not about finding fault with people who make noise by using leafRead More blowers, but about an in-depth thinking of goals and values we will achieve by limiting their use. People could earn more quality life and peace of mind by having quiet time in the early morning and the late evening. The value of mental peace is regarded crucial in our life. Critical thinking gives us a process of thinking to get into the depth of the problem. It begins with an analysis of the situation (structure, background, or setting), in which the information of when, where, and who is identified. The information may help set up seasonal differences in restricting hours of leaf blower operation. Further thinking will lead critical thinkers to note the implication of the new ordinance to the business of licensed landscapers. Also, critical thinkers may think about the development of a soundproof leaf blowing machine. Critical thinking helps us to increase and share our common values, rather than tries to find faults with people who make problems.
