Well, I'd be lying if I didn't say that the inaugural show by "The Heavy MeNtal Gypsy Piano Trio" was an unequivocal success - Featuring Johnny Merlino's piano and organ treatments on many of the songs did indeed give them a fresh new feel. Thanks to Johnny Pompo for inviting us to play at his show! And thanks to everyone that expressed their appreciation of our music. Check-out our CD's and Website:
