Grub 01" ANNUAL 0 man, it was fine: 'Just be the best garbage man you can be So March-Torme went forward with confidence and optimism and none of the usual Hollywood-kid baggage. He participated in two Maccabiah Games in Israel, winning a gold medal twice for fast-pitch softball. He married, had two daughters and moved with his wife to her native Wisconsin, even though his first thought was: "Wisconsin? I don't see me living on property with a silo:' He plays tennis (the United States Tennis Association team on which he plays just won the Wisconsin State Championship), loves being with his kids and is a bit of a car buff. March-Torme, 61, says he is often asked if his last name is a help or a hin- drance. His answer: "If you're not very good at what you do, it won't help you at all:' And he has found that "people will make up their minds in the first four notes [of my concert] whether I can sing or not:' March-Torme not only performs in concert, he serves as his own manager, choosing all the songs and their order. His first consideration in deciding what to sing is his audience, who they are and what they'll want to hear. His great- est asset is "my vulnerability on stage His most popular song is one that he wrote, called "A Different Time March-Torme's idea for the song came when he was sitting with his girls in a town square on a July day. He was admiring the maple trees and began reflecting on his own childhood, days when he played baseball until the stars came out, roamed wherever he wanted to, knew he was greatly loved by his parents. "And I thought about how lucky I was:' he says, "and how much I want my kids to feel the same kind of free- dom and safety and happiness." on Thursday, September 18th from 5:30-9pm!!
