G. Also attracted some "music lovers" and David Bispham also on the Palace program this week attracted some others, therefore there were people in the house who undoubtedly appreciated G. Also's musicianly efforts to entertain, but the classical pianist for vaudeville is something only wanted once in a great while, and to become an act of value for the regulars in the audience it is necessary for this type of "single" pianist to deliver something exceedingly "flashy" and more or less gymnastic. This G. Aldo failed to do, but nevertheless he won some applause at the conclusion of his portion. Noting the Palace bills at such time when there is an operatic or concert star included there is always a pianist in the "No. 2" position, and if this is the accepted formula, it must be right.
