| SONNY VINCENT INTERVIEWED BY JESUS LOVES THE STOOGES Posted: 01 Feb 2011 01:08 PM PST  Sonny Vincent Hey Kim. I made an interview with Sonny Vincent, so I wanted to share it with you. He has played with many Detroit legends (Ron Asheton, Scott Asheton, Scott Morgan, Wayne Kramer .... ) so one part of the interview is about that "real cool time". People in this part of the world are not sufficiently familiar with Sonny's great music, so I wanted to do a little promotion for him. All the best, Goran JESUS LOVES THE STOOGES Here is the Sonny Vincent interview Sure Goran... Sonny is the best and Scott Morgan says he was featured on one of Sonny's records. Scott Morgan and Scott Asheton went to Nashville (about ten years ago) for a week to record with Sonny and recorded with him in Michigan too. Scott likes his work a lot. Scott says they stayed at what he jokingly refers to as "the gangland motel". :)  |
| BRIAN PASTORIA INTERVIEWS JOHNNY BEE BADANJEK! Posted: 01 Feb 2011 12:34 PM PST  Johnny Bee Badanjek The Artist By Brian Pastoria Johnny Bee Badanjek acrylics, oils, oil sticks,pastels, color pencils "What is the secret?" "I don't know. I have to paint it. Absence Is everything! What to leave in or what to take out. If I want to know what happens, if I want to find out the secret, I have to paint it. In many ways this is painting about silence and the expressive potential of the interior and the exterior worlds." --Johnny Bee Badanjek Brian has written a fantastic interview with our best pal BEE... check the full story behind Bee's art and his life HERE I visited the gorgeous city of Wyandotte this past weekend and finally was able to visit the River's Edge Gallery and saw Bee's art there along with Nina Friday and Niagara Detroit's work. I finally saw a big Niagara painting! Bliss.... Love her work as my readers already know.... Check the Johnny Bee Art Gallery HERE Join the U Detroit Website for more on BEE and all that is Detroit....  |
| Posted: 01 Feb 2011 09:24 AM PST  1964 1/2 Ford Mustang Convertible Here is my gift from my Moms boyfriend Chuck that I sported around town at 17 years old. 13,000 original miles and the engine had been freshly painted. Damn I had no shortage of dates after I got this machine. Drove it in a lot of parades and car shows too circa 1973-74. I had those exact wheels and thin white walls too. I used to feel like I was driving a speed boat in this cool car. Guys at the Dairy Queen went wild when they popped the hood and saw that gorgeous 289.  1988 Ford Mustang GT 5.0 This photo above is almost identical to my 1988 GT mustang... I didn't have the ground fx and I think it looked much better without that plastic stuff on it. See the sides of the spoiler? With mine you could stick your hand under the sides too. Such a cool car but really bad in winter. No trunk space and tiny back seat but the little boys sure came running when I wheeled up in this cherry red car.  |
| RETRO: KIMMER MAKES THE SCENE ON U DETROIT! Posted: 01 Feb 2011 06:11 AM PST  Hey gang! Kimmer made the SCENE on U Detroit today! How cool is this website?? Johnny Bee Badanjek sent this site to me as he is on U Detroit too. So I took an hour and checked out every link. This page is going to grow into a huge resource to promote all that is so fabulous about our Detroit music scene. One of my main goals in life is to assist the city of Detroit in showcasing our massive talent bank of stars and upcoming young musicians as well.  Brian Pastoria Brian Pastoria wrote me a lovely note and made my day. He invited me down to see his fantastic studios at Harmonie Park.
