I am looking for a video that Mr Sinese participated in for the Memorial day concert in washington in 2008. I would like to be able to find a copy of the whole show shown on PBS……..Mat 25,2008. My family attended that concert and they were on the show several times throughout the concert, especially my grandsons and my son, my sister and her family.
Please contact me at the above email site,
