* HarsherInHindsight: Wonder why the Del-Aires didn't make it big?
-->On the night of August 25, 1963, the Del-Aires were just wrapping up a very raucous set at the Angel Lounge in Lodi, New Jersey, when two police officers arrived at the club to investigate a noise complaint. Unfortunately, two career criminals – [[https://www.amazon.com/Night-Devil-Untold-Trantino-Killings/dp/0940159708 Thomas Trantino]] and Frank Falco – happened to be at the club celebrating a successful heist they’d pulled earlier that day. Sgt. Peter Voto entered the bar first while his partner waited in the patrol car; he was immediately ambushed by the pair and ordered to remove his clothes. A few minutes later, Voto’s partner Gary Tedesco – an unarmed probationary officer – came inside to see why Voto hadn’t returned; he was likewise taken hostage and ordered to strip. Trantino and Falco then shot the helpless kneeling police officers in the head, killing them both. Falco was shot by police a few days later while resisting arrest and Trantino gave himself up. The Del-Aires disbanded shortly afterward due to “creative differences.”
