This gal will knock your socks off. She’s been a regular in the session world of LA for decades as the go-to sax player for the biggest names in the biz. We first met during her tenure with Rod Stewart & have recently reconnected when she joined my pals in Wang Chung. From her appearances on Star Trek Nemesis to her performances with Scorpions, we will unearth stories that you won’t want to miss!
Joel is not only a phenomenal drummer, known by many fans for his impeccable Rush tributes, but is also a first-call session drummer for video game soundtracks! We are going to chat about the importance of relationships, and how they can form a path for greatness in all things.
You might think you know Glen’s rock pedigree from his phenomenal work with Alice Cooper and Hollywood Vampires, but there are SO MANY levels of progression in Glen’s rise that may have slipped through the cracks. We’ll talk about that stuff, his boundless energy of performance and education while touring, and everything in-between.
Sure, you know her from her tours & videos with Michael Jackson. You might have caught her touring with Jeff Beck, too… but there is SO MUCH going on with this beautiful human.
A live conversation with drummer/songwriter/beautiful human Josh Thompson of Wang Chung and Cutting Crew. Tune in here to listen in on our conversation.
Jason is a booking agent/drummer/businessman friend of mine that fascinates me. I wanted to share Jason’s wit with y’all, as well as discuss a program he created to develop business marketing skills via poker principles. I’d love to have Jason answer any questions you might have (no limits! Sorry… poker terms again).
As the Coronavirus pandemic has taken hold of this crazy world, we are all affected. When it was appropriate early on to let people know about changes of schedule, at this point, it’s most important to ride this out with compassion and love for everyone. My kids will get sick of me in quarantine. The pup will go stir-crazy without his daily trips to the dog park. But in the end, with any hope, we will stave off the virus and maintain health and get a little closer inside of my four walls.
Wishing you all the same opportunities to grow together. Love, peace and serenity!
March 6, 2020 (MIAMI, FL) – Organizers of RetroPop Con and City of Miami Mayor Francis Suarez today announced that the national ‘80s pop culture convention set for April 25 and 26 in Miami’s Mana Convention Center in Wynwood is being postponed due to concerns about the Coronavirus.
“In consultation with City of Miami leaders, our partners, venue, sponsors, talent, and health professionals, we’ve determined that our April timeline puts our large-scale convention and its guests in an unacceptably uncertain and growing cone of risk,” said Manny Ruiz, organizer, and founder of RetroPop Con. “RetroPop will return to Miami when it’s safer to do so and we are extremely grateful for the continued strong partnership of iHeartMedia, our presenting partner, Moishe Mana, the Mana Convention Center, and SWARM, all of whom have been incredible to work with. When we return, we will all return.”
Said Mayor Suarez: “RetroPop is one of the most exciting events that we have been anticipating this year. We understand the difficult decision organizers made to postpone the date until the uncertainty caused by the coronavirus subsides. We remain enthusiastic about celebrating Miami’s contribution to 80s pop culture later this year once a new date is set.”
RetroPop Con will offer guests who have purchased their passes the option of getting a full refund or a special voucher to the next possible RetroPop convention, one of which is still slated for the end of the year. Next year’s RetroPop Con Miami is already scheduled for April 2021 at the Mana Convention Center.
