What a thrill it was to hear my composition, "Spanish Gypsy" cranked thru the speakers at Skate America this past weekend. 14 year old, Caroline Zhang, skated her way into 3rd place and 2 standing ovations in her first competition on the World level.
WOW! Never thought I'd enjoy figure skating this much --its a real nail biting event when your rooting for someone.

Some of the other composers I was enthralled to be sharing this event with were Peter Gabriel, Philip Glass & Rochmaninoff...well , I was the only one actually there but it was still very cool to be represented amongst these great composers.

Caroline , next skates at the renowned Cup of China in Nov. and then in Jan '08 at the US Nationals and will be bringing my music to these events also.
WIN a CD
For the true fans .. see if you can spot me in the audience (1st row) in the video now posted on my myspace page. The 1st person to tell me what color jacket I'm wearing will win a CD copy of Guitar Noir!
Hint: there's a beer in front of my face most of the time :-) ...hey! once a rocker always a rocker !

Edit: ok the color of the jacket may be tuff on different displays so if you can tell me what the woman to MY left is wearing ( this is more obvious) I'll accept that too!
