Since no one has answered:
Joe Bonanno wasn't at the meeting--he stayed several miles away in a motel, and sent his second in command, Gaspar DiGregorio. But, several months earlier, Bonanno had given his driver's license to DiGregorio to renew while Bonanno was on "vacation" in Italy (he was really in Sicily, meeting with Charlie Luciano and some Sicilians to set up a dope smuggling operation). DiGregorio stuck Bonanno's license in his wallet--and promptly forgot about it. When he was nailed at the Apalachin meeting, the cops lifted his wallet, found Bonanno's license in it, and reported that "Joseph Bonanno" had been arrested. (DiGregorio probably was the inspiration for the old joke about the guy who was drummed out of the Mafia for being too dumb: they sent him to blow up a car, he burned his lips on the tailpipe )
New Q: Which famous singer performed at Bill Bonanno's wedding?

I had in mind a solo singer. You're right about the Four Lads. So you gave a correct answer. Care to pose a question?
