July 31, 2006: City Square near City Hall---Rome, NY:

It had been a few years since FPB did a summer concert in Rome. So, we were curious how big of a crowd there’d be. Plus, with the heat & humidity, we thought that might impact the crowd. It sure did impact it. HA! There was a HUGE turnout tonight! Oh, yeah, baby! A friend of mine that works for Rome PD indicated that we had a bigger crowd than the Wednesday night concerts have been drawing! It was great to see FPB Fan Club Members, George (who recently lost his Aunt to cancer), Ron & Jane (from Carthage!), Jeano & Bob, Marian & Helen (from Boonville), and Norma & Fred. It seemed good to see my friend, Jason, who’s one of Rome’s finest, as he stopped by to say hello, too. We sure had fun tonight! Here’s the tunes we did:

|1st set |2nd set |

|Here Is Fritz’s Polka Band / Polka Music Is Happy Music |Happy Birthday (to Virginia) |
