I loved the 'Free Spirit' tour and the guys who helped create the magic: Pete Bullick, Rich Newman, Ian Rowley and Gerard 'G' Louis.
I was a valet for celebrity parties.
Right now at the announce table we've got two kings and a queen, I'll let you figure out who's who.
I spent a year slaving over a hot rollergrill in a Metrodome concession stand and watched the World Series there - and a Super Bowl and a Final Four. I can honestly say - regardless of outcome - that I left every game floating on air.
I was looking around this room, this sea of industry folk. If I had have worn black and white, somebody would have asked me to get them a cocktail; the only other people of colour there were servers.
We are always fortunate to have our own sound folks with us that do a great job in ensuring that everybody can hear and the sound is good.
I never understood who all those people are behind the actors! When you see them on the red carpet on TV, you go, 'Why does that person need such a large entourage?' And then you realize that every single person there has a role to play.
I try to get there three hours before the game, talk with the ushers and the security guards, the coaches and the fans.
