Just found out a friend of Fishheads is dead. Don't know circumstances. She was the lead singer of the Folies show. She was the first black lead I think. Weird. From the obits of
RJ.

Albeny was a VERY close aquaitance of both Kyhawk and myself.

Albeny was the lead singer for the Follies Bergere at the TROPICANA in the late 80's and was the wife of a very good friend of ours.

In fact, I am sure most of you from Vegas know our friend Tom Smilanich, the former supervisor at the Golden Nugget and manager of Sunset Station Sportsbooks.

Albeny did many local television commercials in the local Vegas area also..........she was an immense singing talent.

Condolences to her survivors and all of her friends that knew her.

A very sad day in Mudsville for sure.
