Love Tapes
A tenacious young man named Jeff (IT’S A LIMERICK!) has been trying to get a production of Love Tapes in to a theater in Minneapolis and has been “pestering” me about doing it for quite a while. Jessie would be directing and it would involve me being in Minnesota for 6-8 weeks (showing my john thomas to strangers among other things in the shoe) and generally not being around l.a.
i’ve been putting him off as he never really had dates or a firm amount of money to offer until recently so i told him i’d do it.
they wanted julie to do it, too, but there is some rule about a percentage of the cast must be local and since there are only 2 people in the shoe then… well…
the bride will be heading there in july to find an actress who had better not be a nut or i will kill myself. bad enough that i’ll be in a cold place for the fall. yeesh.
but. the money is good and i think of myself as an actor. so i should go and act. this will probably be the last thing i act in. it’ll be nice to go out with a bang. also, i can take an ibook, a mic and my new m-audio ozone and record vo auditions and, if i book one, record in minneapolis which has, he tells me, some good studios, etc.
thornbirds cd #2 will be coming out about the time i get back so maybe we’ll have some shoes to play.
or not.
if we were 25 we’d be much more on it than we are. we’re like that bryan adams song.
speaking of going out with a bang, my headshrinker thinks i should do the summer school thing so i probably will.
i think there will be a day when actors get paid for doing the special commentary. i think they should. i mean, you 4 people who wrote and said i should do it think i’d bring a value to the dvd, right? right?
irregardless, that day is not now. i guess we’re doing it for free. richard horvitz is gonna do it as is mark harmon and patrick labyorteaux.
maybe xenu will let kirstie alley do it.
and that’s when the scientologists began making dean’s life hell.
speaking of hell. i went and redid securityedition.com and something .asp related seems to have exploded so it’s all now ugly html. how fucking annoying. balls.
we leave for nyc thursday.
i fear i won’t be at skilljam much longer.
YAY! A new Thornbirds cd.
That’s too funny of a comment about Xenu and Kirstie Alley. Interesting how she reinvented herself with that fat actress crap & the annoying pretending to be Dorothy in those Weight Watcher commercials. Seems like any commercial she does makes me want to use my laser beam eyes to seal her mouth shut for an eternity.
The Minnesota gig pays & sounds pretty good. Mark Harmon is supposed to be a nice guy. You should hit him up for a guest part on NCIS as a killer. I’d love to watch you in some sort of creepy role like that. My dang mom loves that show & Mark must be doing something right considering she originally vowed never to watch him again after he did that made for TV Ted Bundy movie years ago.
I still think it’s cool he’s married to Mindy (Pam Dawber). Would love to talk to her for retroCRUSH.
Anyway, have a kick ass trip to New York and yea you bring OODLES of value to the 20th anniversary DVD of Summer School & to this nonsense world we live in. I swear if I had it in my power you’d have a kick ass gig on a TV show. I’m going to go call Aaron Spelling right now.
