IF THEY STOP ASKING FOR OUR AUTOGRAPH WE PROBABLY ARE NOT GOOD ANYMORE""

By -
These were the words out of Matt Frenette of the rock group LOVERBOY when I asked him if he ever gets tired of signing an autograph. LOVERBOY was in town playing a downtown concert and myself and a couple of friends had the opportunity to meet them and ask for the albums to be autographed.

  The 4 original members were so accommodating and were happy to sign and pose for a picture or two. They have been around playing to crowds with songs such as WORKING FOR THE WEEKEND for over 30 years and still know that without their fans they all would be sitting home in Canada. This is a common trait with many of the older touring bands and I have to say something the new bands should take note and use as a role model If not my son will not be meeting any of them in 5 years no less 30.

They sat on stage and spoked candidly about the movie and acting in general. I did not know Slyvester Stallone was the first choice and only John saw the finished project and only once. John spoke passionately that true acting is found on the stage as movies are always in the hands of the editors and Director. Personally never looked at it that way but it makes perfect sense. John mentioned that with several takes the one you might think was your best may end of the cutting floor with the final choice by the Director. Lisa spoke of her famous curls that many talked about and how much fun they all had during filming. Lisa spoke of her role in An Officer and a Gentleman and giving it up to raise a family. Now after the Q&A is when my faith in Hollywood returned. A few of us approach...

SENSELESS KILLING OF SINGER CHRISTINA GRIMMIE

By Unknown -
We were watching the championship Basketball game when breaking news of the shooting of singer Christina Grimmie flashed across the bottom of the screen on one of the local TV stations here in Orlando. Though I was not very familiar with Christina though I did remember her powerful performance in the VOICE competion which she placed a respectful 3rd. What I was truly familiar was the venue where this tragedy happen called the PLAZA LIVE. I have seen many shows there and have met even more acts after with most signing autographs and taking photos with all their different fans. This senseless shooting happened in the lobby with a meet and greet after her show where fans get the opportunity to mingle up close and personal. Most Meet and Greet opportunities can cost an arm and leg and usually is really there for the singers or groups to add more money into their pocket . I do believe Christina did not charge and was only there to thank her fans and show her appreciation to them. Though th...
