I know, I know…it has been days since I wrote anything. I just noticed that Steve Corino is using my “Extreme Horseman” pic in his MySpace page. I sent it to him the day we got home from UWF because I think it is one of the best pictures I took over the weekend.
I’m reading “The M.D.” by Thomas M. Disch. Great book, I read it years ago and decided to go through it again.
I have started watching “The Shield” – more so for the company than the actual show.
Try Copper River Grill in Spartanburg – get the marinated sirloin – very good.
I will be interviewed by Court TV next Wednesday for “Psychic Detectives.” I played a small role in a case and they want to talk to me.
The UWF weekend: Left Spartanburg w/ ER, Thomas, Kirby and TJ at about 11am headed toward Prince George,VA. There was a car that got in front of me on I85 going way too slow for the fast lane. Thomas blew the horn, cursed him and he took off only to be pulled over by a state trooper. Sith power!
The first night was held at Colonial Harley Davidson. The Macks, ER and myself headed toward Wal-Mart to pass out flyers for the show. Got to shoot Maven, April Hunter, JD Michaels, Austin Starr, Christy Hemme and The Dudley’s for the first time. I haven’t heard a final number on the attendance that night, but it was hundreds.
There was a local band there playing “Jump!” – Ostgard’s favorite song. The after party was at Buffalo’s Wild Wings just down the road. Not bad if you like wing places…which I don’t but hey, I’m not complaining, they just don’t appeal to me.
Stayed at the Hampton Inn by the Richmond Airport. We headed off to Harrisonburg,VA about noon. Stopped at the “Topeka Steakhouse” for lunch. Kirby requested a helmet for someone at the table – that’s all I’ll say – some things on the road trips simply must remain there.
Saturday’s show was at the Harrisonburg High School – very nice facility. I got to meet Jimmy Fortune! Yeah, from the Statler Brothers. There had to be 1200 – 1500 people at this show. Great show. We got to the H.S. at 3pm.
Triple dose of Hebners this weekend – Dave, Earl and Brian.
Make sure to order the DVD’s from this weekend here: http://uwf.highspots.com/uwf/index.asp
I have decided to try and wear a cap from here on out whenever I am shooting shows – I hate seeing my thinning top on tape.
1000 thank-you’s to Mike/Highspots again! My road trip gang – I love yawl.
Some recent news makes me think of the children involved in a not so good situation, positive vibes to them at least, they didn’t ask for any of this crap they are going through.
Working this weekend – I am going to be racing down to York,SC tomorrow night after work to shoot the CWA show – The Naturals vs. Team Macktion also Bill Demott vs. KC McKnight.
I’m sure I’ve forgotten something, but I’ll hit it later this weekend if need be.
