Shortly I shall be on my way to a lunch meeting. In the meantime, I am hopping mad - this creep who does endless cabaret events that he thinks are all about him, this person who has been copying what I do for YEARS (and not well), this person who last year tried to buck our first Sunday of every month shows by scheduling his own just down the street (and failing miserably, I'm happy to say - Adryan Russ spoke to him then and he agreed not to do that anymore as it wasn't good for anyone - especially HIM, which is why I think he did agree), has just scheduled a memorial for the recently deceased Rick Starr - that's a good thing to do and we all would like to be there because we all liked Rick, so when did he schedule it - the first Sunday evening in October, literally across the street from our show - at the El Portal. How selfish and stupid do you have to be to do that? It will now be very hard for us to get an audience, as our audiences all knew Rick and it will be hard for us to get a cast because many of our folks also knew Rick. Adryan has written this guy and called him on his insanity - we'll see how he responds, but if he doesn't fix this he will rue the day he ever did it. He will see the side of me that no one ever needs to see.
