Many know him as Duke Fame from the 1984 mockumentary “This Is Spinal Tap.” A.D. Cook interviews rocker Paul Shortino, the lead singer from Rough Cutt/The Cutt, Quiet Riot, Bad Boyz, and Shortino. Currently, he rocks Las Vegas as the singer of “Raiding The Rock Vault” as they share rock music history through classic music, along with a hugely talented band of rotating real-life rockers! Paul shares some great stories of how he started as a teenager and grew his talents to produce memorable albums and play large venues throughout his long career.

What is Dream To Launch and who are its creators? Reading from the book's preface.

And for me, as an artist, displaying my paintings (Indian Summer along with two others) is a special honor, not only because of my amazing fellow LUSTER artists (14 in all) but also because of the noted artists whose work resides at the museum. Located in the heart of downtown Springfield, Massachusetts, the Springfield Museums offer access to five world-class museums, including the Amazing World of Dr. Seuss Museum and the Dr. Seuss National Memorial Sculpture Garden, all under a single admission.
