Blogunited and It Feels So Good
So many things a-happenin'... Where to start?
The Pulse has a new office. We are now located in a converted warehouse block on Rossville Avenue. The place screams alt weekly. We're still unpacking, but when all is unpacked, things will be sweet. (Except for the rancid fumes of the chicken factory across the street. Those are decidedly not-so-sweet.)
Sam. Photos. Soon. I have at least a couple of months worth of photos of Sam to post online, including his most recent J.C. Penney shoot, and various trips to various states to visit various friends and family. The boy has four teeth, just turned nine months old, is almost walking, and is currently speaking (what sounds like) a combination of Chinese and German. He also regularly says "dad" and "mom" -- although we're still a little unclear as to whether he knows what he's saying.
BillColrus.com will soon undergo a rather large transformation. One of the reasons I haven't been blogging much lately is that I have been constructing a new blog/site via Wordpress. In addition to a new blog, the site will also feature video and audio clips from my various past and present projects, as well as a rather extensive archive of my printed work. I hope to have the site live in a month.
Just in time for September's fifth anniversary of the premiere of "On The Other Hand," you will be soon be able to order (at an almost-free price) the long-awaited "Handful of On The Other Hand" compilation DVD. I'm putting together a trailer for it as we speak, and my plan is to have ordering information available when the new site launches. You may also hear something soon about a release party...
I interviewed Darius Rucker of Hootie and the Blowfish today. All I can say is that he was super cool. Next week, I'm interviewing Ken Burns.
If you've never been, the Wilderness Theatre in Trenton, GA is highly recommended. We went last weekend. Not only was it great to watch a movie under the stars on a warm summer evening, but the concession prices were very reasonable and the bathrooms were ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. And VERY WELL air-conditioned.

Man, tell me more about Hootie. That reminds me of something I saw last night about Wayne Brady. Brady and Rucker (and Tiger Woods) all sort of remind me of each other. Last night Fox had this spoof of Wayne Brady acting like a thug...shootin caps, using fake profanity (you know... #$*@!) because apparently he's gotten all kinds of comments about how white people like him so much.

My wife and I have been to the Wilderness Drive-In and saw two movies for five bucks each. What a bargain! When I was attending Chatanooga State in 95 I interviewed Hootie and the Blowfish for thei newspaper, The Communicator. They played at the Armory and it was right before they got really big. I still have the interview on tape and the article somewhere in a box of junk in my attic. You should check out my blog on Wordpress, though it is still in its early stages. How did you score an interview with Ken Burns? That's terrific! I really like his work.

word to that. I haven't seen bathrooms that clean since I drank a gallon of coffee at Howie Mandel's house! *insert Family Guy style interlude here*
