SUNDAY 18 SEPTEMBER 2016

"FRANK SINATRA AND THE RAT PACK IN LAS VEGAS "

Our Special Guest is Ed Walters, former Sands Hotel Casino Boss in Las Vegas and protégé of Frank Sinatra.


ED WALTERS

This is Ed's 7th talk for us. He always has fascinating new stories about these legendary performers.

He doesn't make them up. He recounts his experiences as a very young man, when he worked with Frank Sinatra and his entourage, friends and associates in Las Vegas.
Ed was quoted the February 2015 issue of Vanity Fair about his relationship with Frank Sinatra.


I find it fun and almost pleasantly hypnotic to hear insider stories about personalities that I've always admired and been fascinated by:

Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe, JFK, Robert Kennedy, to name a few. Ed has just the little story to endear and bring to life these icons. You feel as though you were there in the same room with them:
a description, a word,  the memory of a gesture.

And of course, there's The Rat Pack itself: Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis, Jr., Dean Martin, Joey Bishop, Peter Lawford.

Always new and fascinating stories about larger than life people from a special era, the 1960s.

Fun! Nostalgia.

 TOM MCKENZIE

Tom McKenzie and his Bass will also render homage to Frank Sinatra. 

Address: At a trendy and fun new venue - a French bistro in the Marais -  just behind BHV. at the metro Hotel de Ville (ligne 1). GREAT FRENCH FOOD. We'll confirm the exact address details with the reservation!

It's €25.00 (EXACT CHANGE) for a fun dinner. NEW FORMULA:
Dinner is two courses and includes a glass of wine. All additional beverages must be ordered from and paid for directly to the bistro.


A fun Dinner, a great topic, meeting and networking with, fun, new international people.
