The House Band was an 8pc orchestra from the Philippines-Rudy Arevalo Rudy and I put together a musical revue of South Pacific in 1961. All GI cast. My wife played Nellie Forbush and brought the house down singing "Gonna wash that man right outta My hair". The <br />orchestra was outstanding! The Club would book "exotic" shows once a month on Friday nights.<br />Of course the MC would have to go back-stage to "ready" the "young ladies". Didn't sit well with my wife. I could go on and on. My God that was 60 years ago!!!

It is now called "American Club Taipei" and despite the many renovations they've undergone since then, I can still see the resemblance of the swimming pool.Devonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14049557698773992782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252080048017373240.post-67491491177771718312019-12-24T06:48:47.814-10:002019-12-24T06:48:47.814-10:00Anonymous --- I tried to open the link, would not...Anonymous --- I tried to open the link, would not open?<br />Taipei Air Stationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13686488354629456728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252080048017373240.post-91946730823160200492019-12-24T04:38:21.551-10:002019-12-24T04:38:21.551-10:00The aircraft Stan has mentioned above:

Never tasted it but I read that it's a malt liquor that tastes sort of like a sparkling wine. I think they still make it.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01071798130626903767noreply@blogger.com
