Hey everyone,
How’s everyone doing? Sorry for not picking up a crayon to write you all sooner. Been working hard on “Watching The Detectives” our TV show, been working hard with the networks to get this tv show in front of all your beautiful eyeballs. (Check out this picture, Lyman Chen just ROCKING IT)
Lots of interesting ideas floating around….do they bring in head honchos from other shows to keep it going in the right direction? Do we make it an hour? What type of fans will we have? And really as long as you all are there with me, I’m solid. There are some of you who’ve reached out kept in touch since the very beginning…the “Killer Instinct” and “Wrong Fortune Cookie” days (and that was a long time ago! I’m talking the 1950’s)and I hope you continue to stay with us. It means the world to me.
Speaking of the work, at loooooong last, Boogey is here! DOWN WITH THE BOOGEY is a feature film I’d had the great pleasure of working on with some of the finest writing, cast and crew working today, and it got its deal with the good folks at Trillian and Media 8 entertainment (they were the ones to put out the Academy Award Winning film MONSTER) so now we go into “limited” release in select cities before we see how big this flick will get (I hope huge, I just think it’s a fun way to spend 2 hours at the movies) and we’ll get it going starting APRIL 16th in Philadelphia….actually outside of Philadelphia, at the beautiful and classy ANTHONY WAYNE THEATER (it’s 109 W LANCASTER AVE, WAYNE PA 19087-3305) and it’s a freeee show.
Why a free show so soon? Because this is a great cast and crew that loved the expereince and we love you all and that’s why (Wow guys I'm really getting all mushy and long distance commercial on your all this week). Come on out, have some fun, it’s the un-official kickoff to this theatrical run, so come on out, I’ll be there, and I will TOTALLY share my bag of swedish fish with you. SHARED SWEDISH FISH AND A FREE MOVIE EVERYONE! That’s some good times.
Also, I had a chance to get out to a rock show. It was Tommy Stinson. At the North Star Bar in Philadelphia.
Tommy currently plays in Guns N Roses and he used to play in one of my all time favorites, THE REPLACEMENTS. He put out a mighty fine record called VILLAGE GUERILLA HEAD and it was great to get a chance to meet him and say hello. Unfortunately I didn’t get a snap shot of my “nice to meet you and hello!” moment but here’s a snap shot of the show. It was a good time with some mighty fine bands opening and totally worth staying out til 2am in Philly even though I’m about 29843494639436 years old.
Also, one quick thing, there’s a wonderful little movie called GOD OF LOVE, and it was written/acted/directed by a gentleman named Luke Matheny.
It was a beautiful little picture….so beautiful in fact, it won the academy award this year, and I had a chance to say hello to him and hold that statue.
It was a game changer, just really inspiring to see the hard work that equates winning an Oscar. Basically it was just a reminder that no matter what we all do,always stay inspired…and never stop swinging for the fences.
Take care and be good,
TIM
