Jettisoned Johnny

I first met Johnny Gallo when I first walked in to the Montauk Manor. He was wearing a vintage Hawaiin shirt and dragging a cooler full of lobsters. What other signs does a person need to know when a legend is standing before you? Amongst fisherman he is a known for surviving a sinking fishing boat off the grand banks of Newfoundland and floating on a cooler for a day until he was found. He has placed a deepwater devil anglerfish in the Smithsonian and sings a mean Led Zeppelin karaoke. But last week he was at the Liar's, and he was representing Flotsam and Jetsam NY.

Tado Ando and Elvis were both truck drivers before finding their life's calling and creating greatness for the world.
Ando was even a boxer at one time. Now he is an architectural conductor directing a symphony of concrete, water
and light. Water Church.
