I had an opportunity to chat with a wonderful entertainer yesterday, and record it. Narada Michael Walden has produced many hits, and has written soundtracks for such movies as James Bond: License to Kill as well as The Bodyguard.
On May 25th Narada is holding a benefit at the Louise M.Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco for Christopher Rodriguez, a little boy who was shot during a piano lesson. The bullet was not intended for him but his life has been altered as he is now paralyzed.
I hope you'll listen to the podcast and if you're in the area on the 25th, please attend! Tickets are on sale now as a click through link from The Narada Michael Walden Foundation
Some of the performers for this benefit? Sting, Marilynn McCoo and Billy Davis jr., Mary Wilson and many others.
Come and listen to a great entertainer as he sings for me, talks about facebook use and tells me I have a sexy voice! :)
An interesting set of conversations following the Prop 8 issues in California heightened my awareness of something very real to me :
This beautiful lady is my wife.
The state of Washington might not say so because we don't have a piece of paper that says so. But we say so. We've made our vows and commitment to our life together that in our eyes and God's eyes are a marriage that's real and true.
And while our ceremonial wedding is currently planned for June 27th, we are, for all intents and puposes, husband and wife, woven inextricably into the fabric of each others' heart and soul for all time.
I love you Sheryl.
This is the disturbing message I get when accessing my main blog page here at vox. I'm not impressed...in case you wonder. :(
