I believe he played himself in this cameo. The President is a fink. |

beachbumbabs Member since: Sep 3, 2013 Threads: 6 Posts: 1600 | If I remember correctly, Frank Jr. had a band for a few years, was modestly successful, hated the business and got out. I could easily be wrong, but I'll go look at wiki and see if they can shed some light. Edit: Looks like he continued in music, but wasn't considered successful by his father's standard. Then again, who is? Daytona's a deadly place. Glad I got out. I was trapped in the hospital he died in for 4 days in 2005, with a screaming, delusional, bedsore-ridden (the smell!) roommate. Ghastly place. Never doubt a small group of concerned citizens can change the world; it's the only thing ever has |

My parents said they saw him and he was awful. I am sure Frank pushed his kids into the biz directly or indirectly. I am sure he got lots of bookings on his name. FWIW I don't think Nancy was anything special, either. "Boots" is a catchy song because of that bass riff at the end of the chorus, not from her. The President is a fink. |

rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 188 Posts: 18556 | I believe I remember my dad who followed the regular Sinatra's career, noted Frank Jr. was "not quite Sinatra" at best. The general public interest waned pretty fast going from some TV appearances with and without Frank Sr. at first to a nightclub circuit. Dad could only get him in the door as far as opportunity. He didn't really blow up, so that was that. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

He used to be on TV all the time. Hadn't thought of him in years. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

Normally, you don't die if you're in "good health" except like if you're suddenly filled with bullets. Some people think they are in good health -- walking around with asymptomatic heart disease would be an example. High blood pressure is another silent killer. ...or the aneurysm that is about to pop in your head. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I know when I read that, I thought she would have been older, but she did start really young. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
