Hey, it's the first day of April and nothing says Spring like a Wedding Shower, or Sangria, warm weather, poppies in bloom...blah, blah, blah.

Back to the Wedding Shower thing. Leah Remini threw DWTS' Cheryl Burke a, shower for her pending nuptials to Matthew Lawrence this past Saturday and don't they look ever so adorbs together at it? Don't they? Answer me damn it!

How is this Monday Motivation? - well it can be in several avenues. What avenues are they Michael? Glad you asked, here is a short list:

1) Being Happy

Just Because...You're Horny, Or Not

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Zac Efron

Just Because he has blonde hair, Just Because he's wearing a blue suit & Just Because he has some hot scruff - Gentlemen, Ladies...I present to you Zac Efron @ The Beach Bum premiere in Hollywood!

Seldom does my mind wander to the younger set, I tend to like dudes my own advanced age. Yet something tells me Zac is where it's at. I mean, he like totally has a musical background and such, thus I am willing to bet he has a vast knowledge of things of yore and we could communicate for hours, while he was picking things up off the floor.

Here is a breakdown of the film:

"A rebellious stoner named Moondog lives life by his own rules."

A) Aren't all movie stoners name Monndog???

B) This is written and directed by Harmony Korine

C) If you are asking who Harmony is then F#ck off

Yeah, this pic not only draws my attention because my Boy Toy fixation is in it. It is from auteur Harmony Korine, who wrote and  an explosive (at the time) film called Kids in 1995.

He has kept on keeping with his most recent effort behind the camera as a writer and director being Spring Breakers with an extremely high profile young female cast - Selena Gomez, Vanessa Hudgens & Ashley Benson anyone? Anyone???

Thus I am intrigued....

Saturday Sounds: Prom Night

Be Afraid, Or Not... Prom Night: Original 1980 Motion Picture Soundtrack by Paul Zaza & Carl Zittrer World premiere of the original score and disco songs from the  1980 cult slasher film, featuring unreleased music To be released on May 10th Want to hear something really scary?

Perseverance Records presents the long awaited official release of the 1980 cult classic Prom Night Original Motion Picture Soundtrack. Perseverance worked closely with Carl Zittrer and Paul Zaza to locate and unearth the original masters and all music recorded for the film including unreleased disco songs and score not used in the final production, never heard before anywhere. This marks the first official and complete CD release of the Prom Night soundtrack. While the songs themselves have made appearances on a notorious Japanese LP and eventual bootleg recordings sourced from it, there was no official release of the songs - partially because the movie was made in the waning days of the disco fever.  This soundtrack features four different aspects of the music. First it opens with a re-creation of the score as it appears in the film - or as close to it as it could be assembled from the separate elements. Next is the score that wasn't used in the picture. Then come the disco songs in approximate order - but omitting the Blue Bazaar songs that were not featured in the movie and were used only as filler for the bootleg Japanese LP. The last portion of the album is dedicated to the songs that don't appear in the picture yet are as intrinsic to the sound of Prom Night as the songs that made it. "I remember seeing Prom Night during its release in 1980, when disco was still the craze. I was determined to obtain a copy of the soundtrack and to play the theme song at my senior prom only to find that it was never released. I spent years looking at the audiophile catalog at Tower Records hoping to find a release date but no luck. Now, after almost 40 years, my dream has now become a reality! Fans alike are now able to enjoy the soundtrack!" - Silvio Barretta, Producer Prom Night is a 1980 cult classic horror thriller directed by Paul Lynch (RoboCop, Xena: Warrior Princess, Poltergeist: The Legacy, Star Trek: The Next Generation) and stars Jamie Lee Curtis as Kim Hammond and Leslie Nielsen as Mr. Hammond. The movie focuses on four middle school children, Kelly Lynch, Jude Cunningham, Wendy Richards, and Nick McBride who hide the truth of what happened six years ago to ten-year-old Robin Hammond the day her body was found near and abandoned convent. They swore never to tell anyone of how they taunted Robin, backing her into a corner, frightened, when falling to her death while standing on a window ledge. But on that day, six years ago, someone else was there, watching, and now seeks revenge on prom night!

Michael's Musings

Look Closer
Michael Shinafelt

Many of my friends who are fans of the show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have posed this question to me since episode one: "Why is Denise Richards on the show?" 

Then a along came Penis-gate, and her giving zero F#cks attitude about her wedding to Aaron Phypers. That's correct minions Denise is on the show to make the rest of the women look trivial and annoying IMHO. Denise is there to teach them, not to mention the rest of us, life is too short to accentuate the negative have fun and let the good times roll! So, what are we waiting for, time to roll and rock...!!!

Life is a parade of absurdities and pain, and then we die, alone, in filth. So, yes, little girl I shall buy a box of Thin Mints.

That time in spin class when my Whore and my Toy didn't show. That's correct I was a Toyless Whore 😟

DAVID ARCHULETA DEBUTS VIDEO FOR

“POSTCARDS IN THE SKY”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62L9j8xtRlY

ADDS NEW DATES TO 2019 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR

David Archuleta has debuted his brand new video “Postcards In the Sky,” the title track to his most recent album release.

Click here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=62L9j8xtRlY

“I wanted to show different scenarios of people going through hard things. “Postcards in the Sky” was inspired by a story of a girl who lost her mom and little brother in a car accident. (Relatives of co-writer of the song actually).  In the funeral they released balloons with messages/memories on them, symbolizing that it’d reach wherever they may be now that they’re gone. I felt like we need to do that more often. Let out our “postcards” into the world. Our voices, our words can make a difference. We don’t know whose life it will change, but most likely it’s our own life that’s changed by it. That’s how it’s been for me.” Says David

Additionally, David is currently on his North American tour in support of the Postcards In The Sky album release.  Initial dates were revealed earlier this year with numerous cities just added to the trek.  The tour will weave through such cities as New York, Boston & Chicago before hitting Las Vegas, NV & Santa Barbara, CA in mid-April.  Tickets available here: https://davidarchuleta.com/home/live/
