Lunatic Fringe, alright

Saw this on COPS.  Some guy busted for drugs in GA or FL and oh BTW he was wearing an EBN sweatshirt.

1990 Star Party

C/o Kentucky Katie

We did a few "Star Party" events back in the day, at The Waterfront in Covington.  "La Boom" was one of the 150 or so names Jeff Ruby gave his upstairs club, if I am not mistaken.  Anyway, one of the SPs was most eventful.  I think it was the 1991 one, but whatever.

Curtis Stigers was a new artist on Arista, and he was scheduled to play late on the bill that night.

Too late, as it would happen.

Midnight rolls around and oh by the way the police inform us, did you know there was a curfew and you have to stop the performing right this very second.

Curtis, he was NOT pleased.  To the late Linda Alter of Arista: we're still sorry.  To Curtis Stigers: hope you've matured.

Notice the track lights in the ceiling.  When we built the studios on the third floor, the lights were terrible.  Three rooms or so.  One summer, a TAFT exec calls me up, says "Can you make a tape of all that funny stuff you guys do, I wanna listen to it when we go on our family vacation."  So I do.  Weeks later, he calls back.  "That tape was great!  Anything U need, let me know."  (Imagine a corp exec saying that to me.) So I say, "Track lighting."  He says, "Send me the bill."  So I go down to the downtown light store  and order the best they had. One day they come in to install, and my name was the contact. Fox says "Brinker...did I order these?" My reply was, "Nope. Don't worry about it."

PS Real Rolex? Cough, cough.
