Subject: Thanks Again!!!!!

I just want to thank you once again for such a GREAT performance at our 50th anniversary party Saturday night. The consensus is that "Route 66" was the highlight of the evening.

Joseph DeRosa

Originally from Normal, Illinois, Joseph was lucky to have a mother who was a piano teacher. He started playing at age 3 and continues to wow audiences with his effortless abilities. He has played with various bands all over the west, mid-west, and Canada since he was 17. Some of you might remember him from the local group, Papa Clutch and the Shifters or The Cheryl Cotton Show. He has opened for John Conlee (Rose Colored Glasses), BJ Thomas, and backed up Chuck Berry. His gifts in the musical arena are not limited to the keyboards. Joseph also plays guitar, harmonica and probably any other instrument he puts his hands on. Writing jingles and arrangements comes in handy too. Port of Subs, Rail City and Peppermill have used his talents and as Director of Music Ministries at Our Lady of the Snows Catholic Church, he continues to demonstrate his keen ear and musical gifts. Joseph is also an artist in regards to painting. He has done a number of paintings and, in fact, used one for the cover of his latest CD. His piano CD is used for production music on a dozen Catholic radio stations across the west.

Lee Warner

Most people work for a living. Lee plays for a living. In addition to playing his drums in 12 local bands, and teaching drum lessons, Lee “makes money with his mouth.” Lee does phone messages for about 170 businesses in Nevada and California. You’ll also hear Lee’s voice on overhead speaker announcements in airports, casinos and gas stations, and on TV and radio commercials. Lee was a radio DJ for 25 years, up until 2002, including six years on the “Oldies 104” morning show in Reno. Lee’s music and radio careers have taken him all over, and he has lived in 20 cities in 12 states. Lee is also a local wedding minister. He’s lived in Reno since 1987.
