Rush Hour Soul in "A Talent For Loving"

Hey Soul Mates,
turn on the YouTube! Rush Hour Soul is on and they're playing "A Talent For Loving!" Yes, our music video is up and running. Be sure to go watch it. Please leave comments and ratings for the video on YouTube. We need a huge push to get over and you can help. Be sure to tell 10 friends to tell 10 friends to watch "A Talent For Loving." And enjoy. We know a lot of you have been waiting a long time to see the video. Especially our supporters in Great Britain. We miss you, we truly do. So go watch the video, then come back and finish reading my blog. I can wait...

We had a small gathering of friends and fans this evening and screened "A Talent For Loving" in surround sound (5.1 rocking the hizzy). Of course, on YouTube quality is sacrificed for convenience, but you'll get the gist of the video, no doubt. Everyone in attendance had a good time and they clamored to watch the short twice more. Hope the neighbors didn't mind. Cheers to everyone who made it over.

There are many people to thank for helping us through the process of creating and releasing this video. First, we have to thank director William Archer for crafting such a wonderful video and for bringing on a first-rate crew. Foremost amongst the crew, we must thank our taller-than-us director of photography, Dennis Madden. Genius. Thanks, as well, to Nina Angeleri of Home Films for producing the video. The whole group of guys and gals working on the set at the Bedford were wonderful and patient with us. Kudos. A job well done.

Next, we need to give props to our co-star, Sarah Monrose. She looks stunning in the video and Sarah added so much glamour to the whole endeavor. Also on set of course, were our photographer Patty Tokahuta and make-up artiste Molly Gordon. Ladies, you are the alpha and omega for Rush Hour Soul. Grazie!

A list of thank you's wouldn't be complete without mentioning our Golden Circle again. These friends and family members really assisted us with paying for the video (it sho' wasn't free) and donated a minimum of $200 to us. So, humbly, we thank:

The Kelseys (especially tour sponsors KS1 Security)
The Vails
George Christo
The Tokahutas
The Kutacs
The Rolstons (of Free Heart Farm)

Many of you also made smaller donations to our tour fund. We hope you all received your postcards from the road. Thank you, as well. We are nothing without our Soul Mates.

I've made a few changes to RushHourSoul.com that should be eye-pleasing. That's the idea anyway. Well, it's been a very long business day here in Rush Hour Soul-land. Time for me to retire for the night. But for those of you just waking up on the other side of the world, you're in for a pleasant surprise. You might even forgo the coffee; just get your jolt of Rush Hour Soul! Holler!!

Love, Power, Peace

Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air - Book Review

“The Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air” is a trippy new mystery novel from Phillip Mottaz. It captures the grit and gilt of the City of Angels with the flair of a contemporary Raymond Chandler. The brisk pace and wit are reminiscent of Douglas Adams’s entries in the detective game. Flourishes of  Fletch  and “Medium” also spring to mind. However, Mottaz has added a psychic/mutant/superhuman touch and his own comedic voice, structure and internal monologues to the proceedings that help the author announce his own style and the arrival of a literary heroine for a new generation. Hairstylist and budding private investigator, Danica Luman is the perfect character to convey the irony, angst and sarcasm needed to tell a 21st century L.A. crime story. Danica also represents anyone who thought it would be neat to get tangled up in a mystery and the darkly comic cautionary tale that follows. The genre is recognizable, but Mottaz offers a fresh take on the not-ready-for-prime-time-hard-b

Hello, Dali! (Now with 50% More Photos)

Hola , Soul Mates, I'm feeling very jet lagged. Just got back from Espana . Catalunya and Andalucia to be more precise. I even learned Catalan ( jo parlo catala , amics ) and spoke it in broken fashion to amused natives. But wait, here's proof... It's me at the Dali Teatro - Museu in Figueres on Salvador's birthday. The place is more funhouse than museum. This objet d'art was hidden in a stairwell. I call it "The Crowned Peacock Dreams of Genie." Dali lived here. He's buried here. I'm being idiotic here. Genuflecting or posing? Felicitats , Salvador! It was his birthday and I was the only one celebrating. And yes, I did sing "Happy Birthday" to him. Another installation that defies explanation. But it's got a real crocodile and a real light bulb and artificial limbs involved. What's not to like? Seems like every town in Catalonia has some sort of memorial to John Lennon. This sign had fallen off (no, I did not keep it), s

Jim Brown: G.O.A.T.

Yesterday, I met the Greatest of All-Time in his profession. It's not everyday that you see one, let alone get to interact. Of course, the encounter is nerve-wracking for the fan and probably tedious for the G.O.A.T. Thanks to my friend Steve, we got to visit the field prior my hometown Cleveland Browns ' matchup against the Chargers in San Diego. I had hope to see some of the old new Browns and get some pictures. I also had a small bag with a couple of mini helmets inside it and figured, these guys wouldn't mind that someone actually cared for their autographs. As we walked around the sideline, I sized up my options. Not a lot of players on the field yet. And it was hot. Probably around 95 and I had on a jacket to cover up my vintage Brian Sipe jersey. Lo and behold, who do I see holding court at the far end but the Greatest football player... Ever: Jim Brown . A true legend. The man whole holds a record book full of milestones. Star of the silverscreen. Community activist
