I was beyond fortunate to have been invited to the GNRS Hall of Fame Luncheon, and finally got around to posting a few videos from the event... Thanks to Erik and Paul for having me along, and to Tim, Carrie, Shawn and Dave for the great time and memories! I shot a bunch of stuff there, but wanted to share a few very cool moments... Very cool history. Hope you enjoy... A very cool and personal look back on Harry Westergard (and a certain '40 Merc 4-door!) with Dick Bertolucci (pardon occasional shaky camera work!): <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/t9UixJxdfug&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/t9UixJxdfug&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> ...and a look back at the history of the show itself (with Dave's table commentary in background!) : <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/v0XrsqQer9c&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/v0XrsqQer9c&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Great video on some true history and amazing legends Brian! It must've been awesome to be in the presence of greatness! You lucky Flyingpolock, you! Thanks for sharing with us all!!
Glad you enjoyed them, Todd! It was amazing to be there... and if it's a once-in-a-lifetime deal, well, I have some great memories... Nothing like getting a history lesson from the very folks who MADE it. I have a couple more, if interested.... one more Blackie Gejeian speech: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/dZfJk1GJ3jI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/dZfJk1GJ3jI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object> ...and for the artists, Thom Taylor's induction: <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3a1MsK35jmM&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3a1MsK35jmM&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
