My sub on keyboards for one of the bands I play in recently got the Michael Jackson gig. He was in L.A. for rehearsals and the rehearsals were being extended and he wasn't able to come back to Atlanta to play gigs he had previously booked that I couldn't make...so we scrambled and it's turned out that I'll be able to do them.
This guy just canceled his life to go out on tour with MJ...it was a great paying gig and opportunity for him. POOF.
Count your blessings now, my friends.
When OJ Simpson dies are people not supposed to talk about the murders and just talk about what a great football player he was and his movie career?
OJ was also found not-guilty..
