Cookin' up the 80s

I’ve had alot of inquries about my past Hx.Lately I’ve been approached by people on the beach that don’t really know me asking about my acting(speaking of Pat Hannifin).To set the record straight: my legal name by birth is Lloyd,Herb,Spitzer(this is how it reads on my birth cert.).Most know me by “Herb” this was what everyone including my parents call/called me all my life.I used my legal first name as a actor. In the 80s I use to impersonate “Billy Idol”.I did several bits here and there,including the 80s show “PUTTING ON THE HITS”.My favorite gig was working with “David Lee Roth” in “JUST A GIGOLO” a rock video.(Most of you probably have seen me several times).YES, that’s me getting electrocuted,not B.I.,I also planned and executed the falling stunt.Dave liked the stunt so much that he kept it intact ,and used it just the way it went down.Herb

so whats your point…

Is there something wrong with acknowleging that through determination you have or can achieve personal goals. I get the same garbage for working a life time to do what I love doing well.

In my short time on this planet (52 yrs) I have found that the person > trying to kick the chair out from under us, is usually the person who is > jealous !!! …Just clearing the air from some false rumors that were getting back to me ,SORRY if this post affended anyone.It wasn’t posted to cause a stir. So you can disreguard it if said post affended you…Herb.

Thanks Herb, I’m going to keep that tidbit handy while I’m cruising through the cable channels. You ought to archive this in the “profiles” section of Swaylock’s. BTW, meant to ask you if you have read “In Search of Captain Zero” by Alan Weisbecker. A friend loaned me his copy and I’m about finished with it. Really a good read. Adios, Tom

Herb, No need to apologize here. I thought your post was quite interesting. I will look out for you next time I see the video.

Herb,>>> No need to apologize here. I thought your post was quite interesting. I > will look out for you next time I see the video. Herb, Very cool, man. No need to apologize… this just proves that we often dont always know who were standing next to in the grocery check-out line!! Once upon a time, I was a classic rock disc jockey and an on-air, multi-personality… people who thought they knew me were really stoked with my show until the word got out that I wasn`t really acting and got hired to simply relax and just be myself… Dale
