A few years ago, at our New York Rock N’ Roll Fantasy Camp, I had the privilege of meeting one of my favorite Sports Idols and Dodger’s great, Sandy Koufax. Sandy had heard that one of his good friends and Director of CBS Sports, Bob Fishman, was celebrating his birthday.
Bob had been given the surprise gift of attending Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy Camp and would be performing live in NYC. This experience allowed Bob to fulfill his lifetime dream of rocking-out like the pros at The Fillmore at Irving Plaza.
Sandy came to The Fillmore to lend his support and was thrilled to see his pal performing live on stage. I felt honored that Sandy chose to make an appearance at our Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy Camp concert, especially after reading how rarehis public appearances are these days. I read a quote from Sandy that was passed down to him from his late grandfather, who said, “Spend your money foolishly and your time wisely. It is a lot easier to know what you have in the bank than it is what time you have left.”
Those wise words inspired me to encourage you to experience the exclusive once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to attend Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy Camp in London at the world famous Abbey Road studios. There you will have the opportunity to record in the exact studio where George Martin and the Beatles recorded so many of their hits. Imagine jamming and recording alongside legends Jack Bruce of Cream and Nick Mason of Pink Floyd.
This is the very same Abby Road where Nick recorded “Dark Side of the Moon”. This amazing rock and roll experience is taking place this Memorial Day Weekend, 2010 and there are a few spots left just for you. Click here for more details.
Odds and Ends…
Congratulations to past RRFC guest, Levon Helm and his band for yet another Grammy award and on his upcoming tour. Levon is a legend you must catch in concert.
