Believe it or not I actually played back up for Wally @ Margaritaville in Newport once. I used to play guitar there on a reg. basis and one night he showed up and walked up to me and asked if I knew the chords to "Kansas City". I was so shocked to not only run into the guy but to have him ask me such a question. I totally disagreed with him politically and basically thought he was just a hate spouting clown, but 5 minutes later THERE IS WAS on stage behind him and he told some story about being in surf bands when he was younger and then singing "Kansas city here I come...." Quite a surreal moment. I don't regret playing on stage with the guy, only that I didn't ask him about Rebecca DeMorney.

I remember watching his show as a child in the 80's. I used to like when he would throw off his guests! Anyone remember his sidekicks name, Kennedy something or other?

Wally ! Wally ! Wally ! Got your Wally wig on ? Wally was great ! I watched his show religiously. It started when that Old Marine flipped his desk over. I remember working in LB when that Surfer Guy with the visor came in my store. He was the guy that sang that drug anthem. He was wild and wacky. I last saw Wally at an opening of a restaurant. It was on Beach and Westminster. The whole place was singing Wally Wally OOOOO and yelling Wally, Wally I even have his autograph ! He will be missed he was a great part of OC History.

We watched Wally for a laugh every now and then. I remember there was quite a stir over his daughter (Rebecca Demornay) appearing nude in the movie Risky Business. I also remember seeing him on People's Court. He was sued by the leader of the Drugs Religion, whom Wally had thrown off his show. Wally won.

I remember Wally had a picture of Ronald Reagan on the backdrop. His show was quite entertaining. Kinda like the Steve Wilkos show. So is he really dead now?
