I am the longest living go-go promoter in the history of go-go! It started back at the old Washington Coliseum in 1978 with the late great promoter, Mr. Dave Rubin:( R.I.P). Dave started showing me how to properly be a business man. I worked for him for 2 yrs then I decided to leave go-go for a minute and manage break dancers and rap groups. It then escalated into me doing my own shows which started in Nov, 1985 with *Hot*Cold*Sweat*, in Annapolis, MD. It went up hill from there with show after show, with me being responsible for the promotions of *Backyard & Northeast Groovers* bands being put on their first real set of shows, therefore paving the way for the success they still continue with today. Also, giving the original Junkyard band their second breath in their great success in 1995. I promoted the first all girl go-go band called; "*Pleasure Band*" and put them on their first show at Evans Grill in 1985! Promoted the "Huck-a-bucks" first shows. I was managing also, at one time, 15 or more young bands such as *Progression*, *Regency*, *Publicity*, *Total Recall*, *X-Clusive* bands and the likes. I am known as, and still today considered to be the #1 go-go promoter of all time! I praise* GOD* for my musically inclined business mind. I have helped so many fans & artists in this business that it is impossible to even touch the surface in this writing. Chuck, Funk, Sugar Bear, Ju-Ju, Redds, Foxy Brown, Lil Benny, Tidy, Rock Steady, Mickey, Buggs, Rah Rah, Joe Clark, Abdul, D.J. Flexx and my main man, *JESUS CHRIST!* I am sorry l can't name more names but, ( you have to wait for the book and documentary in the works.) ***I can share these facts with you. I was the first promoter to achieve the following;*
