About this blog title

I cannot tell you how many times I have shown up at events with a couple of cameras around my neck, a gadget bag full of odds & ends and a lighting kit and have been asked that question. If it happened once every few years, that would be one thing. But it happens a LOT. It's like getting pulled over by the police and he's standing there with uniform, gun, flashing lights and asking him "Are you a cop?" I would love to come back with a witty reply, such as "No, I am Jesus. Don't you recognize my beard?" However, I cannot be that rude.

It is always a great pleasure when I visit my friend, the artist Tom Bintz, because I never know what visual treat I will find. A couple days ago he had this Elvis Presley poster that I had never seen before. It is from an Elvis concert at the Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, NY. He was with the Jordanaires. Ticket price was $1.75!! Bintz said he has had the poster for years, stashed under a bed.

Almost all of us know Elvis, but who were/are the Jordanaires? Check out Ray Walkers official Jordanaires web site.
Learn more about the Memorial Auditorium. AND, lets not forget Elvis' official web site.
