Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.
Fifty years ago today, three of our band-mates, Tony Geraghty, Fran O’Toole and Brian McCoy, were murdered for bringing happiness, hope and joy to everyone during the darkest days of our recent, shared history. There is no greater legacy. There is no greater love. #MiamiShowband
