Swing Vote

October 19th, 2008  Tagged

I went to see Swing Vote with my son while it was at the discount theater.
Kevin Costner was hilarious. I have not seen that entertaining of a movie
in a while. I laughed out loud several times. I just go for pure entertainment
value. It is gone from the theatres now but be sure to rent it. I think
most will enjoy the humor.

On another note, Get Smart is a waste of time. The dance scene is not funny
at all and I love Anne Hathaway in everything else she has done. At least
until Get Smart. No laughs there.

Joseph Vincelli/Grapefest Review

Joseph Vincelli/Grapefest Review
Thursday, Sept. 11

I attended Grapefest on Thursday night in Grapevine. Joseph Vincelli played from 9-10:30.  He was incredible. He opened with a song called Sweet Persuasion and closed with Night Beat. Alot of good music to dance to in between. There was a little girl about 3 years old that started the dancing. She lasted about 3 songs and that is when I started. You can only tap your toes in your seat for just so long and then you feel out of sync. So I got up and right away I had a partner. I think she must have been feeling the same way. With Joseph you can’t sit still and he will come out and dance with you while he’s playing. Well he does play some slow songs but thankfully he played mostly fast ones. We danced to Stevie Wonder’s “I Wish Those Days” and a number of other songs.  Then I had a swing dance partner from Ennis for another one.
 
So catch Joseph Vincelli whenever you can and bring your dancing shoes.

Grapefest continues through Sunday with 3 stages of live entertainment and all types of music.
