I'd like to meet:

I really can not think of anyone that I would like to meet, as I have met so many interesting and talented people along my journey of life, and working in some of the venues I did in Los Angeles, met alot of people in the Industry that I have been fortunate enough to re-connect with, with the help of the internet, and this site, especially. I am also greatful, that alot of the people I have found, or those that have found me, remember me, from so many years ago, and you know who you are, as you are pictured below. I especially want to Thank the "Axberg Bros" for providing the "transportation on the Magic Bus", that got Michael and I to the south. I am very glad that they are still going strong in East Tx. They were probably the most interesting and fun bunch of guys to be around in LA. in the early 80's having met them at the "Palomino Club" in N. Hollywood. And can not leave out MJ who lived just 4 blks away from us in Encino. When he was 19 yr's old, I was fortunate enough to be able to serve him at the infamous DuPars on Ventura Blvd. in Studio City, he would come in several mornings alone, and sit at the counter. He was so humble and polite, even at that age. Same thing every morning, Hot Tea, with lemon, and an English Muffin. No one ever bothered him or any of the other celebs in this restaurant, they were after all, just like you and me. People, who deserved their privacy. I just saw "THIS IS IT" on opening nite the 27th, and can honestly say, I think would rather watch hours of the rehersals than to see the finished product Live. To watch this man be so creative, and a master of his craft is phenominal! To see him when he would STOP all the dancers, musicians, camera men, to explain to Kenny that he wants to do something that was not previously rehearsed, because he just did not "feel" what he wanted to feel, that it should be this way, not that way. Kenny always obliged him. And of course my good friend Gerald Johnson, former bass player for Steve Miller, now with Dave Mason. And BV..Silly, silly, Billy Vera, (Billy and the Beaters) what a great talent, and funniest sense of humor, now that he has (somewhat) grown up! but by no means is old. No pun intended B.V. lol And Cher, whom I sat with at the L.A. convention center in 1972 during the "self awareness" groups that were so popular at the time. We attended EST Erhart Seminars Training, a grueling seminar/workshop that lasted for 2 consecutive weekends. And she said, This is the "Farewell Tour" how many years ago?? yea, right, you go girl! Bonnie Raitt, while working at the World Famous Palomino Club, there she'd be, every weekend nite, strolling the bar, in those tight black leathers, shortly thereafter, to make her "comeback". I feel extremely fortunate to have be-freinded these people that so many people would just stand in a line to just see. But there is something that people, especially here in the south need to understand, when you grow up and live amongst these people, see them in the workplace, etc. we, at least I am just not impressed. Yes, its really nice to meet them, but its a way of life out there, especially when you work in the Industry. It was nothing to just go to the grocery store, and have to take a darn detour, because they were filming a movie down the street from your house. Its just life folks, it was my life. And I loved it!
