Don’t Miss This Show!

From TheStudioAtMiznerPark.org:

PBS-TV star Chris Ruggiero’s Christmas show features fan favorites from his critically-acclaimed Christmas album such as “Sleigh Ride,” “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” and “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” as well as songs from his 4 prior albums, all delivered in Chris’s own classic style, and accompanied by the Winter Wonderland Orchestra.

Chris has been touring the country breathing new life into vintage rock and roll tunes, in over 100 towns and cities so far! Working with the same arranger who created all the hits for Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons, Chris has crafted unique takes on familiar standards that have landed in heavy rotation on SiriusXM and local radio stations coast-to-coast.

You may have seen him singing on Good Morning America or read about his Christmas album in Rolling Stone, but nothing compares to seeing Chris live on stage. Whether you’re a teenager of the 1960s or just love good music, don’t miss one of the most energetic and fun-filled holiday rock and roll shows you’ll ever see from one of today’s fastest-rising stars.

Just a small taste…

Mark your calendars and prepare for a night that celebrates the timeless appeal of The Monkees and relive those classic hits like never before! They perform all your favorite Monkees songs live on stage, including: “Last Train to Clarksville,” “Pleasant Valley Sunday,” “Daydream Believer,” “I’m a Believer,” and many more. In addition to record-perfect renditions of Monkees classics, each performance features a dance-off, a 60’s-themed costume contest, and a unique opportunity for an audience member to come up on stage to be serenaded by “Davy”. The Monkee Men is a new and exciting tribute show created by writer/musician/vocalist Ron McNeil, founder of Emmy Award-winning Beatles tribute band, The Fab Four. The Monkee Men is a band comprised of multi-talented musicians, actors, and singers that have been selected from the best-of-the-best from all around the country.

About The Monkee Men:
HERE WE COME, WALKING DOWN THE STREET! In 1967, The Monkees outsold The Beatles and The Rolling Stones combined. Their TV show won two Emmy Awards and the band produced five multi-platinum albums and six Billboard Top 10 singles including three #1’s. Today, their music continues to enchant audiences worldwide. With the passing of three of the original Monkees, the only way to experience that great music live on stage has been through Micky Dolenz’ ongoing solo tours. Until now.

* Hunor!

Little Johnny’s teacher asks the class to talk about what their fathers do for a living.

Little Suzy raises her hand and says, “My dad is a doctor! He saves people’s lives.”

Little Billy raises his hand and says, “My dad is a firefighter! He rescues people from burning buildings.”

The teacher turns to Johnny and asks, “Johnny, what does your dad do?”

Johnny replies, “My dad is dead. He was a stripper at a club for men.”

The teacher is absolutely mortified, quickly changes the subject, and goes back to her desk. At recess, she walks up to Johnny and says, “Johnny, I am so sorry about your father, but is that really true?”

Johnny whispers, “No, he actually plays for the New York Jets, but I was too embarrassed to say it out loud.”

This contest started on 7/31/26. This contest has a winner.

***** THE LANDING.

Here’s the “deal”- the other day Jeff Eats got the below picture from one of you guys- which guy, I don’t recall- Anyway long story short, I did some checking around and The Landing which is owned/operated by the Eagle Grill is opening at 9101 Lake Ridge Boulevard, Boca Raton, Florida 33496, which was formerly occupied by Tin Fish. As to when the joint will open- I don’t know- What I do know, is that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats LOVE the Eagle Grill, we have been eating there for 13 years and it is one of our favorite Florida restaurants!

If The Landing is even half as good as the Eagle Grill is- it will be an absolute homerun…

We are really looking forward to trying The Landing!

***** Eagle Grill & Oyster Bar, 4636 Jog Road, Greenacres, Florida 33467, (561) 964-0900.

For our purposes Jeff Eats is gonna call the Eagle Grill & Oyster Bar in Greenacres “an out of sight, out of mind” terrific sports bar!

I first told you guys about the Eagle Grill on June 30, 2013- and for some unknown-reason Jeff Eats and for that matter Mrs. Jeff Eats literally “forgot” that the joint even existed! Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and I have eaten there a couple of times since June 30, 2013- that said, based on last night’s dinner of crab cakes/bbq babyback ribs we haven’t been going (back) there enough! The food absolutely killed!

Let me wrap this package up for you guys, if you live or work anywhere near the Eagle Grill & Oyster Bar- then you gotta give it a shot! It’s really that good!

Posted on June 30th, 2013 · American Greenacres Seafood
***** Eagle Grill & Oyster Bar, 4636 Jog Road, Greenacres, Florida 33467, (561) 964-0900.

Got something really-good for you guys…Eagle Grill & Oyster Bar in Greenacres. For our purposes, we’re gonna call this restaurant an “American Style”-“Sports Bar” joint.

Let me start by saying, that Jeff Eats absolutely loved the Eagle Grill.

For what it’s worth…last night, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends Eric and Ellen (Jeff Eats knows Ellen since he was 13 and she was 12) tried the Eagle Grill which had been recommended the night before by our mutual friends Norman and Nancy who live in Delray Beach…confused?

Anyway…

The four of us (that’s Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats, Eric and Ellen who Jeff Eats knows since he was 13) drove “up” to Greenacres from Boca Raton and found the Eagle Grill in a small shopping center…from the outside, in a million years—the four of us never figured that inside- it was a cool looking neighborhood wood bar/booths/table seating joint with loads of flat screen tvs. By the way, when we got there around 8:15pm–every seat (I’m thinking 125 give or take) in the house including those at the bar were taken—it took us about 10 minutes to catch a booth.

Eagle’s menu has tons of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, burgers, wings, pastas, meat/chicken/seafood entrees, desserts…Just so you know, the joint is heavy on the seafood-side of the ledger, but don’t-worry, there is plenty of non fish stuff, so every-one in your party is gonna find what to eat. At this stage of the game, you can check www.eagle-grill.com for menu/prices/photos.

Now listen closely…Eagle Grill’s food isn’t just good, it is outrageously good. Eric ordered the crab cake entrée ($25-2 crab cakes/2 sides) and scarfed those suckers down as if he was Mahata Gandhi breaking a fast. Jeff Eats did a rack of baby-back ribs ($16- two sides), Mrs. Jeff Eats did blackened mahi ($12.50- two sides), Ellen did a shrimp po boy ($8.50 fried shrimp/lettuce/tomato/mayo and one side), the table shared steamed mussels fra diavlo ($8.50) and gumbo ($10). Like I said, 4 seconds ago…the food was outrageously good.

Let me wrap this story up…

Terrific food—super pleasant service—very reasonable prices (for example–from 3pm-9pm the Eagle offers 9 dinners priced at $9.99 a piece).

In baseball parlance, the Eagle Grill is a grand-slam.

For you guys who need a “drop” of clarification. Ellen is married to Eric, Jeff knows Ellen since he was 13 and she was 12, Norman is married to Nancy and vice versa, Nancy and Norman use to live in Boca Raton but now live in Delray Beach but are thinking of moving to Manhattan but aren’t sure on that just yet, the only tv sets currently being manufactured are flat screen tvs so it’s no longer necessary to call them flat screen tvs-just tvs will suffice and a po boy is the “same” as a sub, hero, blimpie, grinder, hoagie…and your tee shirt/shorts ensembles will work beautifully at the Eagle.

Eagle Grill is open Sunday noon-9:30pm, Monday-Thursday 11am-9:30pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-10:30pm.

Finally, if Norman and Nancy decide to move to Manhattan, Jeff Eats will update you guys.
