my five minutes of fame

November 18, 2007 at 1:03 PM

What was I doing on Saturday?

Watch on Tuesday. 4 p.m. See famous tv persona with famous singing guest, accompanied by orchestra, on last segment. Watch audience clean up. Even if you only see my head once, I have achieved something as yet unattainable by Joshua Bell!

Due to legal releases and all, I can neither confirm nor deny. However, if you go to macon.com you can read all about it.

No gifts, Only $$. A decent amount. But NOTHING compared to what the audience gets.

HA! I completely missed this blog, but I saw the show today! That's so neat! Was it just me, or did Oprah thank all the musicians (choirs, director dude) EXCEPT the orchestra?
