The 60's...Man!


I just shot a segment for a national PBS telethon. Tune in on September 13th for the three hour special live from San Francisco. The telethon will focus on the 60's & feature music & educational programming. Others taping with me were Leonard Nimoy, Carl Reiner, Susan Olsen, Charlene Tilton, Johnny Whitaker, etc. etc. It's so interesting listening to others reminisce about the 60's. I realized that most of the bands I could think of from the 60's started with the word "THE": Beatles, Stones, Doors, Who. Since I'm a California girl, I've always been partial to The Beach Boys. Speaking of which, I went to a screening the other night at the Writer's Guild for a really great film called The Wrecking Crew. It's about a group of Los Angeles session musicians who played on virtually every famous song of the era. The film is currently playing the festival circuit, but if you have a chance to see it, I'd highly recommend it.
If you're a huge fan of PBS (like I am), tune in on 9/13 & show them your support!

Summer


I know, I know it's been way too long since I've posted. The problem is I can't talk about the thing that everyone wants to hear about, Celebrity Wrestling! I promise I will soon & I have MUCH to say. Summer is passing too quickly, as it always does. I know when I was a kid the school year seemed to last forever & summer was gone in the blink of an eye. You'd think that now that I'm a parent & summer means a house full of kids, it would be reversed with the school year speeding by; But that's not the case at all. I think I may love summer even more now: planning fun activities, having friends over, outdoor concerts & swimming every day. Also, no perfume is quite as appealing as the scent of sunscreen. I'm currently busy planning a party for our two August birthday boys & filming a Celebrity Brides show.
