Today is Thursday, November 22. A day we celebrate in the United States as Thanksgiving. This holiday is supposed to be set aside to be thankful for the things we have and to celebrate the first meal of peace with the Indians and Pilgrims. Ok, so maybe the original meaning has been lost, and replaced with a 4-day weekend for many working folks, sales of the year and Black Friday, etc. However, let’s remember how thankful we are for our guys and the “thanks for giving” that they bring us each day!
(it’s not perfect, but I beg artistic license! 🙂 )
Grazie Mille, Il Volo….
We are thankful for Il Volo
If only they’d go solo
To hear their glorious sound
Accolades would abound
We are thankful for our guys
Still so young, yet aptly wise
Sharing their wit and wisdom
To all who will listen
We are thankful for Gianluca
And his mama, Leonora
He reigns from Abruzzo
On top of Montepagano
We are thankful for Piero
Our Sicilian prince of Naro
He sings arias with ease
Oh, sing to me, pretty please?
We are thankful for Ignazio
Our adorably dimpled Romeo
His razzle-dazzle we treasure
He gives us so much pleasure
We are thankful for this site
We can read it day or night
We love our loyal followers
Our faithful Ilvololovers!

So, let us remember what brought us all together, all of the friends we’ve made, and met on this site, and the new ones yet to come – all because of these 3 happy little faces. Happy Thanksgiving a tutti!

Wishing everyone on this site and all friends and family a wonderful, safe, and happy Thanksgiving day. I hope you find all of the deals you are looking for! 🙂 Take care – hope to see everyone soon at their next concert! Whenever and wherever that may be!
A special shout-out to Marie, who is now in South Carolina! 🙂
