A First Pic Of Ding, With Liberace, When I Was 16. . .

This is in appreciation for all the support I got from my beloved DUers:

There's a story to be told with this. (To be brief...) My piano teach at the time was a teacher of Liberace's. He did start out as a classical pianist. He came to Milwaukee, and I took my grandma & mom. I played for him (just for fun-nothing serious), but anyway, here it is:

1. great photo!

I loved Liberace, we'd watch him on tv and I would wish I could learn to play the piano! How lucky you were to have done so and to have MET him and played for him even if it was just for fun.

2. How About A Picture Thread With YOU And Someone Famous?

Could be fun :)

3. I've seen his grave at Forest Lawn cemetary in Los Angeles

it was right next to a funeral I was attending. They reproduced what I assumed was his signature right across the face of the tombstone.

I would have been soo nervous to play for him.

5. I really like Liberace's early records, the serious classical ones.
