Armand Barbone loved karaoke and was gracious enough to participate in the first two years of Karaoke Secret Santa, turning in two wonderful video treats. In 2009, he did "The Middle" by Jimmy Eat World for his secret santa by performing in his pajamas while using Rock Band as his background music. In 2010, he found a video online of "Dominic, The Italian Christmas Donkey" and sang along to it.
On January 15, 2011, Armand died suddenly. A playlist has been created to celebrate his life by remembering one of his passions: singing. It features his two Karaoke Secret Santa videos and a video made by Joseph Restubog after his death, on the night McGillin's dedicated their karaoke night to Armand.
Rest in peace, Armand Barbone. (August 16, 1982 - January 15, 2011)
UPDATE: Here is a tribute I wrote for him on my other blog.
