That Championship Season on Broadway

Saw "That Championship Season" on Broadway in NYC last night! It stars Kiefer Sutherland, Chris Noth, Jason Patric, Brian Cox and Jim Gaffigan! The acting was amazing! Brian Cox deserves a Tony for his performance!
The beginning was slightly slow but picked up. There were many funny lines in the script that kept the audience laughing. The actors were absolutely amazing, although some didn't feel too comfortable in their parts yet, but this is why they call it "previews" and last night was the 2nd night of previews.

All in all, I enjoyed the show and found the acting to be brilliant. Definitely deserves a Tony Nomination and Brian Cox ruled the stage and definitely made the show.

At the stage door after the show, Jason Patric came out within 30 minutes to sign autographs and take photos. He was out there for a good 15 minutes. Brian Cox came out next and signed autographs and took photos for about 30 minutes. Kiefer Sutherland came out next and did the same as well as chatted with a few fans that asked questions and made comments. He was full of smiles and rather friendly. Moved quickly through the lines of people waiting for autographs but stayed out for a good 10-15 minutes. Last to come out was Jim Gaffigan who signed for about 5 minutes. Chirs Noth did a disappearance act when Kiefer Sutherland came out, I believe, as we saw the "Door Guy" go over to the other doors and a mob of people ran over. Rather upset that Chris Noth couldn't sign autographs or take photos for 2 minutes no matter what he had or didn't have to do. Not very fan friendly, I guess. If the rest of the cast can make time for a few minutes to meet their fans and sign autographs, there was no reason why he couldn't. Totally bummed out! Thanks for Kiefer and the rest of the cast to be so "Fan Friendly" and for Brian Cox to go above and beyond with staying out so long in the freezing cold to make sure everyone's playbill, photos, etc were signed! Huge Kudos to you Brian for your performance and your "fan friendliness"!

Tip: Make sure you bring your own Sharpie because the actors don't come with them. Bring a few in case they borrow it and forget to return it! ;) Besides, you want something signed you should be prepared for it! =)

In much need a vacation!

I am so very sick of the snow that we are getting hit with this year. It's pretty and all but come on...this has been going on since December 26, 2010! Let's move on with it already.

I'm in major need a vacation! I would like to take a cruise but at the same time I would like to just go somewhere warm and sunny! My sister, Tanya, has been in search of winning a vacation and it somewhat rubbed off on me. I love traveling and I subscribe to just about every travel magazine out there and guess what? I'm entering all these freaking sweepstakes for free vacations! LOL It would be awesome to win something!

If only I was rich. I would be on vacation every other week to every other month. It would be awesome. Travel the world and back! If only I was rich...

Cradle Of Filth - The Death of Love [Explicit Version]

There is just something about this song that I truly dig! I'm not a Cradle of Filth fan and this is the only song I was able to get through entirely and I just dig it. Something about the beat and the voices...I dunno...I just like it!

Spiha - If i ever let you go

I had to share this again! I'm simply in love with this song!

The Pretty Reckless - Miss Nothing

Wow! Who would of thought Gossip Girl Jenny can rock out! Absolutely love this!

Lordi - Hard Rock Hallelujah

A long time ago, when I was doing reviews and what not for BacStagepass.com I was sent a disc from the band Lordi. At that time I was not impressed. I passed it on to my colleague for reviewing. I just couldn't give the band a chance. Well, today in search of some new music, I came across Lordi and decided to give them another listen. I listened to Hard Rock Hallelujah and it had potential. I listened to the entire "Live" version first and then to the video. I am pleased to say that this evening, I am a fan of the song!

Take a listen:

I have turned people on to so much stuff that I need to start blogging about it!

I was never a fan of the "blogger", however, times have changed and I have found out what an inspiration it is and how much I inspire people for various reasons.  People inspire me and I in turn inspire others.  Okay...maybe inspiration isn't the right word...but...I feel inspired right now so for now it's inspiration or maybe it's rambling...either way...I'm blogging and get used to it! =)

A long time ago...over a decade ago...two girls set out to meet Marilyn Manson at Ozzfest.  With knowledge, blondness, and dumbness, we stumbled onto something that changed our lives for the better and the worst!  One girl took something to one level and the other took it to another level.  Through the years, one girl lost touch with it and the other went in another direction to only find each other several years later.  Music is what brings people together!  Music is what these girls found.  Did they meet Marilyn Manson...NO, but it opened so many doors for these girls and changed their lives for good.

With that being said, I bring you this blog about places Music has taken me, is bringing me to, and music that you may have never heard of if it wasn't for me or for the people that introduced me to it.  The MUSIC business is so non-existent these days, that word of mouth is the only way to get some bands heard!  It's sad and pathetic what has happened to the music industry, but we won't get into all of that.  All I ask is that you read my posts, be open minded and give everything a chance.  You may be surprised what you find and may even like.  I'm not saying your going to like everything, but you  may like some of it if not all of it!  So take a chance and check what I blog about out.

Right now, I am in some serious need of new music and I have gone to the source of finding it.  I give you one of the best promoters website I have ever encountered, http://www.mamatrash.com/ . Mama Trash has turned me on to some music that I NEVER thought I would ever like, but I opened my mind and took a chance.  Check her site out and listen to some of the bands...you may find one or all that you like!  When you do find that band or that song that you like...promote it.  Tell your friends about it, Tweet it, Like it, Myspace it, blog it!  Share the inspiration with everyone!  They may find themselves just as inspired as you do.  Intrigue them, no matter how much they claim they don't like that type of music.  Make them open their minds and take a listen or open their eyes and read about it!  Music should be seen, heard, smelt and breathed!

I'm not going to make promises that I will blog EVERYDAY, but I sure as hell am going to try to! I'm always up for suggestions, so feel free to contact me with recommendations of everything and anything!
