STUD ALERT


I turned on my television today and saw this actor Danny Pino on a show called Cold Case and was EXTREMELY impressed - what do you think? He also played Desi Arnaz for a CBS special called "Lucy: The Lucille Ball Story" If you weren't previously aware of Danny check out his Wikipedia info below... HOT!!!

WIKIPEDIA INFO
Daniel "Danny" Pino (born on 15 April 1974 in Miami, Florida, U.S.) is an American actor of Cuban descent, currently appearing on the TV series Cold Case. In May of 2003, Pino had played Desi Arnaz in a CBS special on the life of Lucille Ball, Lucy: The Lucille Ball Story. Pino attended Miami Coral Park senior high school and graduated class of 93'. Pino went on to attend Florida International University graduating in 1996, where he was also a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon. One of his most riveting performances was as Mexican drug lord, rapist, and gang leader Armadillo Quintero on the cable drama series The Shield. The character is notorious for the rape of a rival gang leader's girlfriend, the rape of the child sister of someone who was going to testify, burning his victims to death, and dealing heroin samples to grade school kids. Danny has also appeared in The Lost City, which was directed by Andy Garcia and featured Dustin Hoffman and Bill Murray. He is also in the movie Flicka which featured Tim McGraw. Danny also appeared in one episode of CSI: NY in a crossover with Cold Case.

ONE NIGHT ONLY: NINE INCH NAILS

Tomorrow night I will be seeing Nine Inch Nails in concert for the first time in 13 years, um yah I'm excited!!! The last time I saw Trent in concert was when they opened up for David Bowie in 1995 at the Forum. Coincidentally tomorrow night I will also be seeing them at The Forum but this time they will be headlining. Wow, to go back 13 year - I was still in high school with dyed black hair and flannels were fashionably in and so was dying your hair black - apparently! I don't remember who I went with - probably Laura, but I remember how amazing he was in concert and the energy he gave off to the adoring crowd. Tomorrow night I am going with Robert, Moses boyfriend, and I am so grateful that Moses is letting me buy his ticket off of him! My friend Eric just bought a ticket to the show too so we will all be partying in the pit... how amazing is that going to be?? Check out NIN during their 1994/1995 World Tour with David Bowie which was called The Dissonance Tour! I didn't know that offhand but before looking it up I didn't think that Bowie and NIN was a good team to travel on the road with. As I remember Bowie was touring under a very strange album, not only was it a dark, gloomy album but it just wasn't him. I can remember watching Bowie and thinking "this is the legend they claim is amazing?" Bowie was trying to match the feel of the concert but it just wasn't working. Looking up the concert tour it states on Wikipedia "This tour observed a format placing Nine Inch Nails as the opening act, transitioning into Bowie's set with joint performances of both bands' songs.[18] However, the crowds reportedly did not respond positively to the combination.[19]" At least I wasn't the only one that thought so! Check out NIN below from that tour... he was amazing!
