Adventures Set To Music

I am having an exceptional day today. Things are going well, lots of projects and things going on, and the piece de resistance; a review of "Wrong Turn at Lungfish" was just posted on the Journal Register Company's website "Roxborough Review". Click HERE to see it.

EDIT: Also read an awesome review from the "Chestnut Hill Local" which has nothing but good things to say about the actors and the production (even if the guy either didn't like or didn't quite get the play itself).

I'm just glad to know that the play is being well-received, and that we're all doing a great job on stage.

That having been said, my mom, brother, and possibly my aunts and uncles are coming down some time this weekend, so I'm excited about that. Who else should come? Probably YOU. So here are the details:

"Wrong Turn at Lungfish" at Old Academy Players.
3544 Indian Queen Ln
Philadelphia, PA

Showtimes:

Saturday, March 7, 8:00 PM

Friday, March 13, 8:00 PM

Tickets are $12 and can be reserved by calling 215-843-1109, Option #1.

If you have the time, I'd appreciate the support and I know you won't leave dissappointed.

Outside of that I've received some fantastic news at work, and have more than a few personal and professional projects on my plate, including helping to organize a fundraiser for the local theater around here. Possible director duties for an upcoming event as well! So here we go, keeping things busy. Whew.

The Sacrament of Life

What: The premiere for the film "Sacrament of Life".

Who: Yours truly, playing the role of "Mikey", one of the main characters best friends.

Where: The Ritz Bourse, 400 Ranstead St, Philadelphia, PA

When: 7:00 PM, Wednesday, August 6th, 2008.

Why: Because who doesn't want to point and laugh at someone on screen, especially if it's one of their friends?

How: Tickets can be purchased from the film's website, http://www.sacramentoflifefilm.com, or at the door for $10 each.

The theater originally rented out for the screening ended up being a little too small for all of the tickets sold thus far, so the Ritz has given us a larger venue to show the movie off in. That being said, it means tickets are still available, but the earlier you get them the better! Come, have some fun, and grab a bite to eat with us after the show.

Here's to hoping I see you guys there!

First things first (because I am a whore and have to pimp this out)....


TheCritics.tv's new look is out. Check out the 13-minute review-packed episode we finished filming the other week!

From the producer, Joel:

TheCritics.tv - New Season New Site
Season 2 is now playing at TheCritics.tv and we have a new format along with a new version of the site. Please take a moment and stop by to see all the changes.

Digg TheCritics.tv
Please click on the link above to digg your favorite review show, TheCriticsDotTv. If you don't have an account with digg and sign up. It's a great site to catch current information and you can start by helping spread the word on us.

Check out the site - we need the hits for membership into the Broadcast Film Critics Association. Otherwise though it's a solid, entertaining show. There are some things we're gonna change and a few things we're going to work on. All in all, I say it's a pretty good first shot at this kind of thing and Joel does an awesome job putting it all together. The version on Stage6.com looks and sounds a whole lot better than the website version, but it's only going to do you well if you have the latest DivX installed.

Moving on....

As I'm sure you know the Superbowl is this weekend! So, much like last year, one and all is invited down to the apartment to eat tons of... well, everything, watch some commercials fútbol americano, and watch manly movies. We're probably gonna overload on food and drink, so please come and take some off our hands.

Also, dress for warm weather. REALLY warm. Like you're going to the beach warm. 'Cause this apartment gets hot as hell.

It'll be a good weekend.

Other things....

Lots of things going on in my life (as there always are). Started using )Twitter so suck it if that bugs you. Also interviewing is going well. Went to an open call with Wickline Talent, got some great feedback (including the fact that my headshot sucks and I should get a new one). Gonna be working with some local agencies around here to test the waters on print modelling. That'll be fun, but it's not 'till a little bit aways from now.

Got finished with a series of interviews at my company for a job which is several steps above my current position, taking me towards the compliance and regulatory parts of the corporation. Which is good, 'cause I love doing that crap.

And....

Yeah, I think that's it. So you can feel free to e-mail me, call me, comment here, or whatever if you're going to be coming. We've got... I think 13 people so far, but hell - the more the merrier. We'll make it work! If you need directions (or my address/phone number/whatever) send me an e-mail, call me, or text me.

Until next time then, adieu!

So, "The Golden Compass," eh? Heh. Check out the review.



TheCritics.tv Hackett & Costello Review: The Golden Compass

PLAY IT.

I wish I had more time to update, but I've been busy. New car, filming, blahblahblah. But hey, if anyone's in Philly tomorrow night at about 9:30 PM by South and Front, I'm gonna be doing some skits and improv with a comedy troupe. I think the name of the place is... Torry's? I honestly forget, but hey - come find me if you're down there!

Now, back to NOT UPDATING.

Our review of "American Gangster" is up here - and it's good this time!

Well, if I would stop talking with my hands for a freakin' MINUTE. XD

Check it out.

Fuggin' Coney Island is rad and sleazy as ever! Woo!

Too bad after today Astroland is shuttered for good. At least I got to ide the Cyclone one last time. Ahhh, the fondness of childhood remembered....

I love it, 'cause every time I'm on it I feel like I'm gonna die.

XD

Heh.

Hehehe.

Hehehehehehahahahaha!












Um, I'll talk about it later.

Hehehehehe!

XD

Yeah, you remember Highlander. The film/TV show/cartoon/soon-to-be-anime about people gettin' their heads whacked off and drinking the lightning inside of them.

So in a fit of insanity I decided to look up that new movie coming out. You know, "Highlander: The Source".

Holy Jesus Christ why?

( Collapse )

And yes, fuckers, I did write a fan script for Highlander. That's because I'm awesome.

So I was making a post on my phone during the concert last night, but my dumbass phone doesn't have a QWERTY keyboard, and T9 predictive text is like a retarded kid on speed. Seriously fucked up.

Concert? Wha? Oh yeah! Well, last night me and Krys went to see Vienna Teng live at the World Cafe Live here in Philly. The entire event ranking in at a whopping 8 hours of non-stop fun, including the inclusion of a few new friends (that means you wendelina2 and knaveofhearts), punching Rocky in the sack, eating THE CHEESESTEAK (American wit' kthxbi) and general stupidity. It was an amazing time, and I hope you guys had a safe trip back to the West.

The concert itself was unbelievable. Now I just recently found out about Vienna Teng - she does music good. But live is absolutely unbelievable. Talk about a voice, man.... Best of all was spending it with the Krys-lady. She is the awesome.

The days leading up to the concert were awesome as well. Roller-skating in Cherry Hill was hella fun, even if I fell like a jackass and once again proved my ineptitude at physical activity. Also Dave, you were right - my ass was KILLING me on Saturday. Saturday was a good day of old-school ass-beatings in Street Fighter III, the sadness of knowing that GunCons don't work on plasma televisions, and the hilarity of "The 40 Year Old Virgin." Steve Carrell, you are my comedy GOD. But really, seeing everyone - Dave, Dustin, Rob, Heather, Paul, Jez, even Val for a minute - was nice. Really nice.

Er, so yeah... I guess my journal's kinda been all over the place lately, huh? Buncha stuff gets started but never finished, posts are relatively erratic, and... er, yeah. BUT I will be better and post more. Even if it's just to show y'all pictures like THIS.

Yes. Thank you, and goodnight. When I'm less delirious, expect a real post. Maybe.

... I got a callback. For an acting gig. :>

I'll letcha' know after Jan 31st if you'll be seeing my ugly mug on anything more than this friggin' LJ. XD
