Stanley T, Madhatter (Stanley Zillifro) 1948-2011


Stanley T. Madhatter, legendary Rock n' Roll MC and Bon Vivant, has left our physical plane. 
I thought I would share this, my favorite photo of Stan taken by our friend Dane Gussin. This was shot the day after the Grande 40th Anniversary show in October of 2006. After a long night, it was a beautiful warm October Sunday morning that greeted about a dozen mostly out of towners gathered to pay homage to the Grande. Stanley answered everyone's questions, told many stories and posed for photos with the kids. After everyone filled up their camera memory cards we all went out to breakfast. What a wonderful morning with everyone buzzing about the great concerts that had transpired 24 hours and 40 years past. RIP Stan !
Here is a great write up about Stanley from Roger Lelievre:
