Its road trip time as I head for shows on three consecutive nights. A decent May and June for me, work-wise, will come to an end.
Summer is normally a slow time of the year for me. The down time that I have gives me a lot of time to think of new things to do and that thought process is already underway since this summer will be even slower than usual. This year anything new will come under the umbrella of the Marshcast project where there are two shows running currently, although not in the same place currently.
I would like to mention that I try not to make this particular blog about myself. I generally find that rather narcissistic when others do that. My intention was to jot down some thoughts about things that interest me at any current time and use it as a networking tool also. However, I actually do have people ask me questions about my time as an entertainer and personal questions as well, so I slip some of that in here to try to knock off a couple of things at the same time.
I am very grateful and honored that anyone likes anything that I do so I don’t want to seem like I am ignoring anyone, so I answer some of those things here.

Hey, if you know any women who are interested in doing some vegetable oil wrestling, please send them my way.
That was sort of out of left field, wasn’t it? Well, I’m actually serious. We, and when I say we I am talking about our Dungeon of Manlove show cast, are planning a fund-raising event for some time later this year. We would like to raise money for breast cancer (because who doesn’t like boobs, right?) and vegetable oil wrestling seemed like a logical thing to do.
We are open to other suggestions…I guess…for such an event. Actually our main attractions will be a concert. We have a verbal commitment from the first local band that we asked the other night on our show, Altar of Dagon. I’m sure we’ll get a few others easily enough.
We are looking for a decent-sized venue around here where I live inDelaware
Also, if you have any other ideas for some things we could do in this fund-raiser send me a note or make a comment here. We’d actually like to make this a major event.

We are also on a continuous search for people who like to become involved in our network. We are looking for a variety of people to do a variety of things. We are searching for show talent; those who would like to become part of any of the shows we are producing or would like to produce, those who would like to work behind the scenes writing, editing, or producing, or those who have sales skills to help us develop the business side of the project.
Please contact me directly if you have any interest in any of the above.

It was talent show night last night on TV for me; America
AGT showcased an 11-year old girl fromAlaska Las Vegas
I was talking with a friend about AGT the other day. He said he thought that this show should keep singers off of the show. While singers certainly have talent, there are other shows which are just singing competitions. Groups and individuals who have other kinds of acts like magicians, ventriloquists, pole dancers and the like always seem to lose to singers at the end of the show anyway.
I had to agree to an extent up to the point where if they are going to use the word “talent” it’s tough to then exclude singers who are naturally “talented” in that way.
On “The Voice,” there were 8 singers remaining; four get the boot tonight, one from each “team.” If you have seen this show, calling a winner here is tough. All of the remaining 8 are talented and it’s simply going to be a matter of who has developed more fans. My favorites, of course, are the hot girls.
Adam Levine, judge and lead singer from Maroon 5, brought his band to the show last night to debut a new single. It was called something like “Moves Like Jagger.”

Ok, I was a fan of Maroon 5’s first album, but the second one was terrible and so was this song. To make it worse, chubby, white-haired Christina Aguilera joined him on stage, did a couple of those vocal runs with her hands waving in the air and ruined it even more.
Had that act been on the AGT stage, Peirs Morgan would have buzzed them right off stage. I know that I would have pulled the plug on that one.
Blake Shelton, of country music fame, also performed his hit called “Honey Bee,” which I had never heard before. He was just fine. I mention this strictly to make it known that I don’t want to just criticize everything that isn’t God’s gift to the entertainment world. I’m not even a country-music fan; I am, however, a Maroon 5 fan, and the country song was better.
I recently cut back my cable TV service to save money but it’s going to be tough to keep it off soon. HBO’s True Blood returns this weekend and I love that show. Also in the fall Dexter returns to Showtime, and that is one of my favorite shows as well.
So I guess I’ll have to find a way to make that extra $60 a month to pay that bill. If you are looking for a unique way to entertain your friends or co-workers, drop me a line!
Done.
