Tony Polimeni is the drummer for an LI band called No Regrets. The East Setauket resident says, "The term gig was originally coined in the 1920s by jazz musicians. The term, short for 'engagement,' refers to a paid performance by musicians. My Jeep is always loaded with my drum equipment and ready to go for a gig." (Newsday, Feb. 19, 2012)
