Going To Las Vegas

-

or not going to Las Vegas. Since the 1st of January this is something I've been thinking about really hard, only 3 months left, so if I want to go I have to decide now.

In October I wrote a blog with an interview with Lynne Frasche and Carolyn Boyer-Schiavo, they answered a lot of my questions and explained how everything will look like, about events surrounding the ceremony, possible accomodation, special guest speakers.. That blog so far has 600 hits, it means that a lot of fans have wanted to know as much as possible about the event. Here is the link to that first blog with the interview.

I've asked Lynne Frasche if just 3 months before the event, she would like to add something and this is what she's written for us

'David's Las Vegas Walk Of Stars Event is just three short months away! So exciting!
We are still asking fans to please donate if they can attend the event, or not.
This will ensure that we can have video for all to enjoy, plus we still need a few things for
the event.


David Cassidy's LVWOS Fan Night Admissi...


We also still have our Star Store open for anyone who wishes to purchase any of our merchandise. The response has been overwhelming, and everyone has loved the items
and quality!



We'd also like to clear-up any misconceptions about our involvement with David Cassidy's Official Las Vegas Walk Of Stars. Carolyn Schiavo, Becky Harwick Hamik-Pratt, and myself, Lynne Frasche have been an active part of this project for four years. We are original members, and major donors to the Star as well. We didn't take over anything, as the headchair was fired by the Las Vegas Walk Of Stars Board Of Directors. We have the dismissal letter. There was also NO signed contract. We were approached to carry on, and it has been our pleasure to do so, and give David the celebration he so deserves.'


Oh yes, David Cassidy absolutely deserves the celebration, and it will be a great and unforgettable event, truly once in a lifetime experience. I don't expect anything so big and exciting will ever happen again. David Cassidy for those few days will be once more the biggest star in Las Vegas . A great opportunity to meet fellow fans and people I've only have read about, people who knew David Cassidy, worked with him and were his friends.. But to go or not to go..I've been thinking and talking about it , and at last one member of my family said - 'You're  driving me crazy. Go for a walk, think about it, return, write everything down and decide. Good bye.'..A family. Love and support..


So I'm writing..Warsaw - Las Vegas - 9306 km, flight- 12 hours (one way), the price both ways.. around 4000 zł, ( $1000...), this is not much less than national average wage..let's assume I can afford it, I have a birthday in April ( a special one), I can make a big party and instead presents ask for money..But it's sooo far away, and going on my own, this is not easy. And what about Covid..I'm fully vaccinated but I will have to do a test 1 day before flight..and what if..And when you are going so far away to the country where everything is so different you have to be very fit and very healthy..and I'm not..

I still don't know..

  I learnt yesterday that Robyn Millan died last year. Someone published a post about the TPF's episode where she'd appeared as a guest star, 'Dora, Dora, Dora', Season 2 episode 1, aired 50 years ago, on September 17, 1971..And there was a comment about that episode that the script was poorly written, sexist etc. Maybe, no one would dare write something like that now, but the world looked different half a century ago..And I really felt sad yesterday because of Robyn. She started her short career in 1965, 33 credits, mostly tv roles - Mission:Impossible, The F.B.I, Hawaii 5.0, Ryan's Hope..But we would remember her as Dora, the girl Keith fell in love with, and Robyn, the girl David dated for a while.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BmZnk9RFKm0&t=1s  In December 1971 on Photoplay Magazine an interview with Robyn was published :' He is just marvellous and really knows how to handle his success.(..) We hit it off from that first day six months ago.(..) I resp...

Love Is All That I Ever Needed. A David Cassidy Biography. Chapter 1

  Chapter 1 The Divorce David Bruce Cassidy was born on April 12, 1950 in New York City. He was born into show business, it was running in his blood. His parents were young and glamorous working actors. Jack Cassidy was 23 years old, Evelyn Ward 3 years older, both very busy with their career, frequently touring and absent. David spent his early years with his maternal grandparents in West Orange, New Jersey, just 20 miles from New York. He felt he was different from other kids, didn’t exactly fit in, his school friends’ parents didn’t look like his, they had ordinary jobs, like his grandfather, Frederic Ward, who all his life worked as a utility meter reader. David was a small child, slightly built, and had to wear glasses. During his life he underwent 5 eye operations. It wasn't easy to be the youngest, and not to have a brother or a sister. Someone to fight with, but also to play with, and to share love, good and bad experiences. He was a lonely child, brought up by honest,...

'He Was So Pretty You Couldn't Look Away..'

'and sexy in a way that is timeless.' It's from Kevin Fallon's article published on www.thedailybeast.com on November  22, 2017.  Maybe it's not the smartest thing to do, but the newest article about David Cassidy on Record Collector Magazine, and first of all different pointsview of it, made me have a look on some articles published after this horrible day,  November 21, 2017. But first a song. We experience another heat wave here in Poland, I haven't seen a rain in many days, which is scary, so maybe a song about a rainy day. We miss David on any day, and this is one of his best songs. And amazing, very moving tribute video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJ6qjfK72L8 We have 42 web articles from November and December 2017, on the website, and I can't see Kevin Fallon's on the list, even that I'm sure I sent it Jane last year, because this is not the first time I'm writing about this article. I'm a former librarian, I believe everything sho...
