 Never being a religious follower of Tony Orlando and Dawn, or Tony Orlando in his solo career I wasn't sure of what kind of interview I could produce from this "entertainer". I had interviewed "stars" and "personalities" before but I wasn't prepared for an "entertainer" named Tony Orlando. Since I was covering his concert in May of 2010 at the Lancaster Performing Arts Center I had to not only enlist my own memories to help me with the interview, I needed to enlist the assistance of unlikely allies like my own mother. Through research and "family",  I learned that Tony Orlando had come onto the music scene in the 1970's with a mega-hit that crossed international barriers, however, that was just the tip of the iceberg.

Clash of the Titans

  A remake of the original1981"Clash of The Titans", which also scored big at the box office at that time, keeps you watching and in your seat.
    This "Clash of The Titans" is of course, big budget with all of the graphics and computer additions that make today's movies what they are, exciting.

The Lancaster Performing Arts Center is known for being the Entertainment Capitol of the Antelope Valley and there's a reason for that, it's called performances and Saturday night was no different.

Once again I found myself traveling down the freeway on my way to Primm Nevada to review a major icon. I was going to watch Gladys Knight, the lead voice and driving force behind Gladys Knight and the Pips. Gladys was performing live at the Star of the Desert Arena with her group.

"The Lovely Bones" is set in small town America around 1973 when times were "supposed to be easier", "better, safer". The story was first written and meant to be about a serial killer but a little bit of fantasy can drastically change that.

 Once again I found myself headed south down the 14 freeway to Lancaster where the Entertainment Capitol of the Antelope Valley was playing host to Sheena Easton, one of the many big names in the entertainment world.

  Hailed as the entertainment capitol of the Antelope Valley, the Lancaster Performing Arts Center has been booking great acts for many years and the anticipation of Sheena Easton's arrival was heart pumping.
