[QUOTE="texan, post: 1074551, member: 38206"] [B]On this day, 31 Dec 1929 Guy Lombardo and his Royal Canadians played [I]Auld Lang Syne[/I] as a New Year’s Eve song for the first time on this night in 1929. [I]Auld Lang Syne[/I] had been the band’s theme song long before 1929. However, this night was the start of a New Year’s Eve tradition as Lombardo’s famed orchestra played at the Hotel Roosevelt Grill in New York City to usher in the new year. [/B] [B]Where did it Auld begin? Scottish poet Robert Burnss said he heard an old man singing the words, and wrote them down; but Burns is considered the original author. The literal translation means “old long since”; less literal: “days gone by”. [/B][B]Auld Lang Syne and Happy New Year! [/B] [/QUOTE]
