Celebrating a Star on the Walk of Fame for Jane's Addiction
Dear Friends,
Hollywood is rocking. Local rock band Jane's Addiction will be honored this Wednesday, October 30th, with a Star on the Walk of Fame! Very appropriately, the Star will be located in front of
the racy Playmates lingerie shop! We are celebrating along, choosing Jane's Addiction to start of the week!
"ahhhhhhh….. the good ol' days : ) As a native Angeleno AND having been in my 20's in the glory days of the 90ies, Jane's Addiction hold a very special place in my heart. I have vivid memories of going to check out the new vibrant "interesting art band" in Hollywood clubs now way long gone, such as the basement that was "Raji's" on Hollywood Boulevard or "The Lhasa Club." Over the years, I must have seen "the Janes" dozens of times, but each time, I can tell you, those boys would not end a show unless they felt a magical occurrence transpired. They gave EVERYTHING they had every time, and for that, I am pleased as punch to see them being honored with a Star in the city they so fervently captured and celebrated! I chose probably their biggest hit "Jane says" and this live video, I believe shot in the early 90ies, because I felt it captures some of the essence of an early live Jane's Addiction show, grainy and as low res as the video may be!" : ) DJ Matt Cornwall
And of course, this week is all about Trick or Treat. Many of our colleagues and friends will attend BizBash's IdeaFest in New York where 2013 Event Style Award winners will be announced on Tuesday and Wednesday. We are happy to be nominated (together with our friend Doug Johnson / Eplus Productions) but alas, cannot get away from work to attend.
Wishing you all a great week.
