WHAT TIME IS IT?...LIVE Coverage of Glenn on BreeFM
Glenn, live on BreeFM @11pm EST, Wednesday.
This article was written live during the show. As such it may contain significant factual errors. Over time it is hoped that these will be corrected.
We are off to a Kick A$S!! start with "Hole" - Awful.
Sara is almost done with her movie. Glenn would like to go into the future and see which path things will go down. Glenn has been sorting out a backlog of things he has to deal with. He is sleep deprived because of an early morning meeting.
Glenn's younger brother works at Lucas Arts on the gaming side of things. Glenn always tries to get him something cool for Xmas (eg Rad on laserdisc). What does Glenn get from Matt? Whatever Lucas Arts gift is. This years gift was a travel bag that has a sleeping mask which Glenn used this morning. In sitcoms you always see the "sleeping mask". Glenn is happy their is actually something to it. PJ said that he uses one and Glenn said he was "ahead of his time".
Glenn has spend so much time on video production that he has forgotten that he is actually good at the business side of things. The good part of a hiatus from RedEarth88 is that it allows him to focus on business.
Sometimes you get in a conversation and it leads to something totally unexpected. cf how Kevin Smith got the job on " Superman Lives ."
Once per year you can hear DeBarge - "Who's Johnny" and think its good. It reminds Glenn of the movie Amazon Women on the Moon. No soul, but it builds. Glenn "wiggles" to the music.
Glenn said Veruca Salt are highly under rated. Remember " Seether" If you can create a hit without a label you can pretty much write your own ticket. "Volcano Girls" was the follow up and in it they reference "Seether".

WarGames
Glenn was thinking of Wargames when he was thinking about Jonas' father. He regrets the day he came up with the notion of a "mind-wipe". Why would someone start a resistance and go into hiding? It reminded him of Falcon in WarGames. It has to make sense that they would have no memory. Glenn was not in favor of Jonas parents being alive. It would make them unlikeable if they faked their death and left Jonas alone. Even with the "mind-wipe" it seemed "cruel and unusual".
The sequel to WarGames: direct to DVD. Very little tie to the original. You could not get Mathew Broadwick? It is not going to be any Lost Boys II
Let us think about the months we have spent together on BreeFM. Glenn "would really like to share his passion with the world". Think about it folks! Here is why the world is against Glenn. As Glenn has been sharing his passion he looks at the direct to DVD market. Think about "Red Dusk" the sequel to Red Dawn but now Patrick_Swayze is close to death (see a previous summary) in real life. Glenn is just putting it out there as entertainment so please do not use the idea for an Indian uprising. Glenn wants to bring Patrick back to the land of DVD triumph.
Superman III is underrated. It is terrible what happened to Christopher Reeves. Glenn referenced Switching_Channels
Most of the time community theatre is "bs" however "Noises Off" is a great play.
Movie sound tracks in the 80s is where singers tended to go that put out tracks that went nowhere. It is some of the worst music. When Glenn thinks of "Who's Johnny" he thinks of Rod Stewart in Legal Eagles (which he never saw). "Love Touch"?
What song really really sucks? When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going - Billy Ocean. If you have to ask, you have already lost. The song is on the sound track for the Jewel Of The Nile . The creepiest, weirdest, most ominous image. This is Michael Douglas the academy award winning actor we are talking about. You should never be into something that involves a Billy Ocean song. If there is a hell, that is what will be playing when you are going there. Just try and think of a more horrible song. Think of it as our own personal Event Horizon. With age the lyrics have developed a certain interest. The song sounds like it is on a loop. Sax and a synthesizer are are hard to mix and pull off.
A Glenn Confession
Glenn aged 9 went to Great America and knocked out a very spirited rendition of Huey Lewis and The News " Power of Love".
Glenn talked about the unfinished "Abandoned Super Secret Shameless Filler" which was made up of music from movie sound tracks. Part of him wishes he had finished it. It has both good and bad in it.
As a kid you don't even look at the logic of a song's lyrics. Glenn talked about Lionel Richie and the power ballad Say You, Say Me
Kids Incorporated - Say You, Say Me
This is a Lionel Richie hit that KIDS Incorporated covered in Season 3 from the episode "Stacy and the Clown". It's performed by Stacy Ferguson (Fergie!). Visit www.kidsincorporated.us for more!
The clown was freaking Glenn out.
Oversized sun glasses. Tramatic flashbacks. If you did not have to grow up watchig Kids Incorporated you are very lucky.
John Parr wrote Man_In_Motion for an athlete in a wheel chair. It was worked into the movie.
From Wikipedia:
"The theme song, "St. Elmo's Fire (Man in Motion)", was written by Canadian composer David Foster and performed by John Parr. This hit song was written for the Canadian athlete Rick Hansen, who at the time was going around the world in his wheelchair to raise awareness for spinal cord injuries. His journey was called the "Man in Motion Tour." The lyrics do relate though to the characters in the movie moving out into a new and exciting, yet a little scary, time in their lives. The analogy of the light or the fire works, in that they're looking for guidance into the unknown, and that a new 'fire' is raging inside of them, of who they're discovering themselves to be. The song "Give Her A Little Drop More," which plays during the movie when they enter St. Elmo's Bar & Restaurant, was written by British jazz trumpeter John Chilton."
Barry Manilow shows that he knows how to weave in the pain with the song Copacabana.
Junior high. Age 14. Glenn had to read the Outsiders. Glen gets together with his friends to recreate a 15 minute epic reinterpretation of the Outsiders.
Glenn used to have a PXL 2000.
Glenn talked about Bell Biv DeVoe. Back in the day Michael_Bivinsn worked on a band called "Sudden Impact". Watch youtube for how Michael_Bivinsn blew a lot of money on the "East Coast Family", Even Boys II Men dropped him asap.
Glenn talked about his experience with the "X-hat".
