My friend Rolf Roosalu is in the national finals for Estonia - hoping his song will win and represent his country in the 2011 Eurovision Song Contest.  Since I am guessing most of my readers are not in Estonia, you can simply listen to the song here and enjoy - but if you are in Estonia - PLEASE Vote for Rolf!


Thrill of Thrills - MEAT LOAF will be live in concert Saturday night at the Houston House of Blues - and I am gunna be there!  Add to that - Meat has agreed to be a guest on InnerVIEWS…  I’ll let ya know when that episode is set to air!  This video is for his new single “Los Angeloser” - which really is a GREAT song!  ENJOY…

On a trip to Poland in the mid 2000’s to tape the PBS special “Mazowsze: The Music & Dance of Poland” - I got to know my friend Marcin Mrozinski - who went on to represent Poland at the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest.  One of my favorite pictures from that trip - Good Times!!!
