The B*tch is back (with a new autograph)

How many people can say "Oh I met Elton John this weekend"? We'll I can! I still can't believe it.

Elton John - In Person: 10/12/2007. How exciting was this! Not only did I get a chance to see Elton John in concert last night, but before his show I had the opportunity to go backstage to meet Sir Elton himself! Before he came in to visit with our small group (only 6 of us had this special VIP treatment), his personal assistant brought Elton's dog, Arthur in for us to meet. Arthur travels everywhere with Elton and knows several "tricks" which he demonstrated for us. About 15 minutes before showtime Elton arrived outside of the hospitality room, riding in the back of a golf cart. He was a little quiet but personable. No diva behavior! He was kind enough to pose for a picture with me and sign his current CD. What an incredible autograph to go with an incredible show. Over two and a half hours of Elton and his band performing hit after hit. He was amazing. Special thanks to my dear friend Monica who offered me (yet another) once in a lifetime opportunity that I will never forget.

Stone cold country

Sorry for the delay in updating my blog. I haven't been sending out much recently so I'm not getting a whole lot back. Don't give up on this blog though, we have lots of good stuff still to come.

Doug Stone - In Person: 10/8/07. I had a chance to spend some time with country music singer Doug Stone today. He was very nice, funny and very open about his life (the good and the bad times). He signed a photo and a CD insert for me. His hits include "I'd Be Better Off In A Pinebox", "In A Different Light", "Why Didn't I Think Of That" and "Too Busy Being In Love". Doug told me they are in the early stages of getting a ghost writer to write his life's story. Doug's lead a very (almost soap opera like) life. That's a book I'd definitely read.

Richard Burgi part 2

I have to admit between the two successes I received from Richard Burgi, I like this one better. Personalization will win every time with me!

Richard Burgi - Sent: 11/1/06 Received: 10/6/07. We'll ask and you shall receive. I was surprised to get this photo of Richard Burgi, since I just received a success from him a few weeks ago. The difference is, this one was personalized. Yeah! I only wrote to him once. One of my successes came back in my self addressed stamped envelope, the other in his own envelope. Besides his work on "Desperate Housewives", Richard is also known for "The Sentinel" (as this publicity photo shows), "24" and "Judging Amy". He also was the original network choice to play the title role in the TV series "The Flash".
