1973
Mick Jagger is refused a Japanese visa because of a 1969 drug bust, putting an end to the Rolling Stones plans to tour the Orient. Asked by a reporter about his personal drug use, Jagger replied, "I don't take drugs. I don't approve of drugs and I don't approve of people taking drugs...unless they're very careful."

2012
Former CCR frontman John Fogerty told Billboard.com that contrary to his 2011 overture about a reunion with his former band mates, "I've heard through the grapevine the other fellas were really upset or something over that. So I sent back, 'Oh. I guess there's no reunion then.'"

…Will soon bring his own reality music competition show Coliseum to TV?

Yep. That’s him.

And YOU have the rare and amazing opportunity to meet him, jam with him and most importantly learn more than 40 years of lessons about rock, the industry and show business directly from the Caesar of Rock himself.

At camp, Gene spends hours with each band mentoring them in a special way that I’ve never witnessed before from any rock star. And as Gene says, "You can't sugarcoat sh*t, pardon me”  He holds nothing back and it’s fantastic!

Also in Calgary, we’ll host a songwriting camp led by the talented Louise Goffin, And also joining this camp will be one of the all-time legendary bassists Leland Sklar, and the original guitar hero George Lynch.

If that's not enough Lita Ford, Vinny Appice, Rudy Sarzo  and the members of LOVERBOY and many more will be there to mentor you too.

Calgary is an amazing backdrop to help YOUR rock dreams come true.  Hey, you work hard and you DESERVE to rock, right?

Roger Daltrey Camp at Foxwoods Resort Casino

"Being  able to perform on stage with Roger Daltrey was surreal. During the song Substitute I said to myself, is this really happening. My hand was actually shaking while I was playing the guitar. Roger was so down to earth and a lot of fun. When Spike told Roger that I had never been on stage before and never played with anyone Roger said “well I guess he won’t forget this now will he”  he wasn’t kidding what an amazing experience!"

My Pal Jack Bruce


My Pal Jack Bruce

I don't like to abuse the word "good friend," but Jack Bruce was that to me. Growing up, my brother played Cream songs all the time in our home until “Sunshine of Your Love" and “White Room” became as familiar to me as any song I've ever known.

When it came time to putting together band members for Ringo’s All Starr Band, I always used to present him with my favorite musicians and Jack Bruce was always at the very top of that list. Imagine hearing your two favorite songs every night! In 1992, my dream came true and Jack and I became good pals as we toured the world from the USA to Russia, Sweden and so many counties for more than two years.

At our 10th anniversary of Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp, I asked Jack if he would consider jamming his hit songs with campers and he gladly attended and gave musicians a dream come true. And when I produced RRFC in London, my very first call was to Jack Bruce who said it would be an honor. I remember him driving up to Abbey Road Studios in his new Bentley that he just bought after reuniting Cream a few years ago.

His wife Margarit wrote to Eric and Ginger Baker to consider regrouping one last time and they did for concerts in New York and London. To see him jam his songs with campers put tears in my eyes and I never wished I could play an instrument more than that moment. Jack was always there for me, including when I introduced a blues camp a couple of years ago.

Although many people think of Eric Clapton when they think of Cream,  they maybe don’t realize that Jack wrote and sang the hit songs. Personally, I will always be grateful to Jack for his encouragement to produce RRFC. They even had their daughter Natasha help me organize many camps over the years. 

I will forever be indebted to Jack for his caring and support of my family first and then musical productions and what a fantasy for me to have him in my circle of family friends. I’ll never forget the night at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Denver when Ginger Baker came on stage to join Ringo's All Starr band and Ringo announced from the stage, “Tonight...we have two percent Cream.” Well, from where I was standing, it was always more than 100 percent."

Jack, you brought happiness and joy to so many music lovers over the years. You were an amazing pal and this loss will hurt for many years. May your family only have beautiful memories of your wonderful life. Rest in peace. - David Fishof
