Why kittens don't make good DJs...

Well, it's true...

Twenty years ago today I asked my childhood sweetheart, my best friend and the most beautiful woman in the world to marry me.

All three said NO... 💔

I didn't have cable when this music titan went on air, but I did get a major education in rock n roll and how to be cool every time I'd go to my cousin's house to take over their TV and Atari games.

Still working on that 'cool' part, though...

Aladdin has been banned from the magic carpet race.

Apparently he's been using performance enhancing rugs...

On July 4, 2012 in San Diego, California, thousands of people gathered for the ‘Big Bay Boom,’ attending what they thought would be a 17 minute show.

Instead, 7,000 fireworks accidentally went off all at same time.

The fireworks were triggered from a computer however a glitch in the software changed everything.

The 17 minute show lasted just 30 seconds but was remembered as one of the greatest firework shows of all time.

I hope everyone had a safer 4th... 🇺🇸

Hands down, the worst engagement ever...

Another person that shared my birthday - October 2nd 🎈

Gandhi, Kelly Ripa, Sting, Mike Rutherford (Genesis)Mike & the Mechanics) and Spanky. Not a bad list at all...

George "Spanky" McFarland (October 2, 1928 – June 30, 1993)

McFarland is most famous for his appearances as a child in the Our Gang series of short-subject comedies of the 1930s and 1940s. The Our Gang shorts were later syndicated to television as The Little Rascals. Upon being discovered at age three, he instantly became a key member of the Our Gang children's comedy movie series and one of Hollywood's stars. His earliest films show him as an outspoken toddler, grumpily going along with the rest of the gang. His scene-stealing abilities brought him more attention, and by 1935 he was the de facto leader of the gang, often paired with Carl "Alfalfa" Switzer, and always the enterprising "idea man." Switzer's character became as much of a scene-stealer as the young McFarland was, and the two boys' fathers fought constantly over screen time and star billing for their children. McFarland's only starring feature-film role was in the 1936 Hal Roach film General Spanky, an unsuccessful attempt to move the Our Gang series into features. He also appeared as a juvenile performer in many non-Roach feature films, including the Wheeler & Woolsey comedy Kentucky Kernels and two Fritz Lang features of the 1940s. He remained in the MGM Our Gang productions until his final appearance in the series Unexpected Riches in 1942, at age fourteen.

As an adult, McFarland found himself typecast as Spanky, and worked a series of regular jobs through the 1950s. In the mid-1950s, when the Our Gang comedies were sweeping the nation on TV, McFarland hosted an afternoon children's show, The Spanky Show, on KOTV television in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The show included a studio audience and appearances by other celebrities such as James Arness, and it ran Little Rascals shorts. After leaving, he continued to make public appearances and worked mostly regular jobs. McFarland was in his bedroom in Keller, Texas getting dressed on June 30, 1993 when he suddenly collapsed. Paramedics tried to revive him for approximately 30 minutes before transporting him to Baylor University Medical Center in Grapevine, Texas. He was pronounced dead within 40 minutes of being admitted, at age 64. It was believed that McFarland had died of "a heart attack or an aneurysm"; his remains were cremated shortly thereafter.

I can get down to that...

What do you call it and where do you live?

I used to call it pop, but it made me cringe as a kid. It seemed weird. When I moved to Hollywood, California in 1989, I was told to not wear spandex and don't say pop or they will know where you are from. That's all I needed to hear. Dropped the pop and since stalled it sida...

Father's don't get enough credit. Show them love and that they are appreciated every day.

Happy Father's Day to all the guys who make a difference...

Well, now we know...

In this video I learn why coins are painted red. Some junk silver coins are painted red. Junk silver quarters and junk silver dimes can be painted red. These...

Thank you Sweeney Elementary PTO Sweeney Elementary and Principal Bell for our 8th year of working as a team to bring some fun moments for kids in the Shakopee area!

We kept going until the rain and wind began to get wild.

Music creates memories.

Let's do it again in the fall...

Wedding prank. Good or bad?

DJ & Bassist. What more could you ask for in an entertainer? 40 years as bassist and 21 years as a DJ in the music industry pays off when you need experience.

Let's rock your event...

Hopefully, everyone in the US had a moment to reflect on the weekend holiday and what it means while enjoying their families and friends.

Thank you for all that served for allowing us this time to enjoy what many take for granted or what others wished they had...

Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 🇺🇸

I'm filling in on bass tonight for the Darren Stiletta Group at 47 in Fridley, MN from 8pm to 11:30pm.

My first gig back to the big stage since last summer. Come enjoy some great classic rock hits and a great night to be out!

Stay safe and don't cause too much trouble... 😀

Im a little late to the game here, but almost midway to the holiday season, so suck it up. Haha!

I never realized there was a Christmas version to the classic Tommy Tutone hit (the original spent 40 weeks on the charts in 1982). Nirvana does a poorly improvised version in Brazil, 1993 - somewhere on YouTube. I don't recommend it 😳

I opened and closed the show for Tommy Tutone at Dibbo's in Hudson, Wisconsin when I was with ShakyJake sometime in 2006. That was a lot of fun. I probably have a clipping for that show somewhere.

Fun Fact: Tommy Heath is the singers name. Oimmy Tutone is the name of the band.

Enjoy...

Do you have a bar or restaurant - or an event - that needs some added spice to its pizzazz?

Music does the trick every time. And then toss in a DJ that has the personality to keep it poppin'.

Feel free to share my info and let's get the party started.

Call or message with questions or for a quote. Always happy to help...

As always, where would we be without Mothers? Not here. I wish you all a beautiful day with your families and friends close to your heart... 🩷

I'm retired in the sense that I was tired yesterday and am tired again today...
