I had the honour of performing for the Marriott Masters at the Conde Nast Gold List as one of the greatest hotels in the world the Renaissance Esmeralda. The Marriott Masters were 250 event planners who had spent over 5 mill a year at Marriott properties! Yahoo, my perfect audience.
My first gig on an Aircraft Carrier and what a novel location for a elegant party. My client Hartford Steam Boiler always has the most fantastic parties that go back as far as 1866!!!I have played for them for years(but I don’t think I back that far)
Oops. THe Highlander is caught with a very pretty guest!(she sent me the photo)
What a fabulous casino! Beautiful art, waterfall, shopping, etc,. And what a fun gig. I did two short sets with rear screen projection(my film from Malta and European castle shots mixed with the live feed) and my friend and 2nd half of our duo album Peace of Our Minds, was the MC.
I only wish we could do this gig at Israel’s National museum in Jerusalem. Full of 10,000 year old artifacts from Africa, the Americas, Oceania and the Far East.But I will bet ya that they have no Medieval Battle Armours…..(I am an avid collector……my upstairs is wall to wall….an armory)
1st time for me and Bermuda was both beautiful and customs was extreme, each piece of sound gear needed a visa and a bond.Where I performed….the Dockyard, was a fantastic fortress, museum, and dockyard shown here.
There are these great old buildings all over that are empty and with the 30million expansion of this area for cruise ships and tourism…….this could be a perfect location for a famous sculptor to hang out in his studio/gallery and talk to tourist as he sculpts away. Problem I see is that it is far from Malibu and tourist would want normal bronze pieces, dogs, kids, golfers, etc,. …… I would probably do sea gods and mermaids!
Boy, do I love XLCapitol. Paying me for a 10minute gig in such a fabulous city like Berlin. It blew my mind with its frantic construction of colossal Classic Empire buildings. My oldest son who was living in Budapest came to visit, along with my German friend Steffi and all here girlfriends. We went to the DISCO and danced the entire night…..boom boom boom boom…..the next day Hampton and I barely made it to the Helmut Newton museum. I was so completely pissed that I did’nt meet him and know him because his last few years(before his deadly auto accident) was right here in LA and Palm SPrimgs. The two places that I live in most
…was a blast. I perfomed on the outside patio of the Honolulu Hyatt as the waves crashed. Then inside I did a dinner set. I also did a bit of a show were I told heroic and funny bits from Shakespear and films. They ate it up even though I am in a radical costume(gold armor) Many have seen me before at these events
In armor,I entered the event with a Roman Legion and we marched up to a small stage in the center of the great hall. Models in chaimaile bikins were posing on columns. I later did a Ultra Louge set with a DJ mixing our two sounds until the B-5’s started their set
