For the purely superficial reasons, he must be tall, swarthy, and handsome, with mischievious eyes and a dashing smile. Fortunately, I found that plus a silly goofball who makes me laugh and is also smart as a whip. Oh, and he's a snappy dresser. I'm a lucky girl...
I was a regular at the Derby from its opening until around 2000 or so. We'd go when Royal Crown Revue was the "house" band, then when Big Bad Voodoo Daddy was the Wednesday night band. In fact, it was on a BBVD night that I met my husband in 1996. He's also in the Derby scene of Swingers...
