The Casinos were playing in a Cincinnati club where WSAI disc jockey Tom Dooley liked to visit. Dooley had a song he wanted to record but needed a band to provide the music. The Casinos had been getting great reaction to 'Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye' at the club and wanted to record it. Dooley offered to pay for studio time at Cincinnati's King Records Studio for the group to record their song if they would back up Dooley on his song. While Dooley's song didn't see success beyond WSAI, the Casinos' tune quickly became a national hit.
The group was based around Hughes and his brothers Glenn and Norman, and they signed a deal with Fraternity Records. 'Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye' was their first single. The track reached #28 in the UK Singles Chart in March 1967.[2] They tried to follow it up with a Don Everly-penned song, 'It's All Over Now,' but that only hit U.S. #65.
After his time with the Casinos was over, Hughes became a country music promoter, but he died on February 3, 2004, at the age of 67, from complications following a car accident.
Thomas Robert 'Bob' Armstrong Jr. led the installation of the lights on multiple suspension bridges including the John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge in Cincinnati, Ohio, and the Memphis & Arkansas Bridge in Memphis, Tennessee. He also worked as the business manager of the St. Bernadette Church[3] in Amelia, Ohio, and continued playing with the Casinos until his death of cancer on December 27, 2011, at the age of 67.[4] Ken Brady then returned to the Casinos as their lead singer and still performs nationwide.

There are millions of casinos with names that are from a family, or small towns and states, but some have the funniest of names. Names like the brilliant verajohn casino might sound silly to us, but to their owners, the made perfect sense…
10 – Trump Casino
Named from POTUS and it’s owner Donald J. Trump, but here in the UK trump is also what we call breaking wind. Not everyone will find this funny, but it always makes me smile.
9 – Golden Showers Casino
Vegas Casino With A Musical Name
Surely someone new that this was a rude name, but of course it was supposed to be showers of gold, not golden coloured liquid.
8 – Pamper Casino
Here in the UK Pampers are nappies for babies! Makes you wonder what on earth was going on in that casino.
7 – Terrible’s Casino
You might think this was the name of a small American town, but it was in fact, a family owned casino that was given the ‘Terrible’ family name!
6 – Whiskey Petes Casino
This is not the owner of the casinos name, but an owner of the gas station that was located on the land the casino was built on. A sort of nod to the past.
5 – Pink Taco Casino
This is part of a Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, but pink taco is also something rather rude and I am sure you might guess what it is.
4 – Tom Uglys Casino
This was a casino name is after an Aboriginal Australian who lived in a rock shelter nearby. But he was said to have been handsome and it was just a name other local men called him due to Jealousy!
3 – Back Passage Casino
It might sound rude, but it was just the name of the street the casino was located on in London. I wonder if it was a pain in the bum to locate?

2 – Crapstone Casino
Once again this is only named after the location it was. But it still sounds funny to say it none the less.
Vegas Casino With A Musical Name
1 – Yorkeys Knob Casino
Located just north of Cairns it was named after a fisherman from Yorkshire who was said to have come to the town year after year. Seems he just loved the place and in return, we get to love the casino named after him.
