Have a safe trip Buddy. Say hi to Danny DiLiberto when you get up there. It's odd how Danny D was very close in birth and death to buddy, yet Danny seemed to have come from a much older era. But now that I think about it, Buddy was playing an Johnson City and I need to correct myself. I...

I never updated this post after I finally received my Sawdut cue as things didn't turn out that great and I am updating this post to maybe educate buyers on what they buy and most importantly where was it built and where you live. I traded a Schon for a upper-tier Sawdust segmented cue. It...

Here's was a great evening we shared with Danny at his 2011 BCA Hall of Fame induction at th US Open with the great Ralf Souqet.

Fo For sure. I knew of Danny during those young years, but I was too young to be in halls and only became close with Danny upon his return to Buffalo 15+ years ago. I'm sure the guys he was closest with, like Sigel, Rempe and Lisciotti could've told you many more stories about Danny...

Hi Jay, Danny spoke often of you during many of his Sunday dinners over Steak DiLiberto and a bottle of chianti. He considered you a friend and patriarch of pool. Coming from him that means alot.
