HEY EVERYONE...JUST A SHORT NOTE TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT UP AND COMING SUPERSTAR, COREY COX, HAS RELEASED A VERSION OF MY SONG "WHEN THE LIGHTS GO OUT" FEATURING CRYSTAL HOYT.
THE SONG WAS ORIGINALLY WRITTEN BY JIM ERVIN AND ME FOR MY CD "LET'S HEAR IT FOR LOVE". ORDER THE SONG NOW VIA http://www.coreycoxmusic.com ...YOU'LL LOVE WHAT COREY HAS DONE WITH IT. PLEASE SUPPORT THIS SONG AND COREY COX. LOVE, BENNY DEAR FRIENDS;
AS MENTIONED IN MY EARLIER MESSAGE ABOUT THE UPCOMING SHOW SATURDAY, DECEMBER 3RD AT THE PALACE THEATER IN SYRACUSE, NY...THE CHRISTMAS SHOW IS "OUR" SHOW. WITH THAT IN MIND, I WOULD LOVE FOR FANS TO BE A PART OF THIS YEAR'S SHOW BY SENDING IN PHOTOS THAT MAY BE SHOWN ON THE BIG SCREEN BEHIND ME. WE WILL SHOW THESE DURING TWO DIFFERENT SONGS. THE FIRST TYPE OF PHOTOS WE WOULD LIKE ARE A TRIBUTE TO FATHERS. AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, MY FATHER PASSED AWAY EARLIER THIS YEAR. PLEASE SEND IN PHOTOS OF YOUR FATHERS. THEY CAN BE PHOTOS OF YOU AND YOUR FATHER, JUST YOUR FATHER OR EVEN YOUR GRANDFATHER. BOTH THOSE LIVING AND THOSE NO LONGER WITH US ARE WELCOME. THIS YEAR'S SHOW IS VERY MUCH THE STORY OF MY LIFE AND, OF COURSE, MY LIFE INVOLVES ALL OF YOU. THE SECOND TYPE OF PHOTOS WOULD BE ANY PHOTOS YOU HAVE OF US TOGETHER. PLEASE ALSO SEND ANY OTHER GREAT "BENNY RELATED" PHOTOS, ESPECIALLY LIVE ONES, YOU MAY HAVE. ** IMPORTANT NOTE: BY SENDING IN THESE PHOTOS YOU AGREE TO ALLOW US TO USE THEM IN THE SHOW AS WELL AS ANY POSSIBLE PRODUCTION THAT COULD COME ABOUT FROM THE SHOW, INCLUDING - BUT NOT LIMITED TO - A DVD, A POSSIBLE TELEVISION BROADCAST OR ANY OTHER USE. ALL FANS ARE WELCOME TO SEND IN PHOTOS BUT PREFERENCE WILL GO TO THOSE WHO WILL BE ATTENDING THE SHOW ON DECEMBER 3RD. IF YOU BOUGHT TICKETS, PLEASE LET US KNOW THAT IN YOUR E-MAIL SO WE CAN GIVE YOURS PREFERENCE. PLEASE INCLUDE THE E-MAIL ADDRESS YOU USED TO PURCHASE TICKETS SO WE CAN VERIFY. WE HAVE LOTS OF OTHER SPECIAL TREATS WE ARE WORKING ON FOR THE SHOW. IT'S ON IN LESS THAN THREE WEEKS...HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! PLEASE E-MAIL YOUR PHOTOS TO: bennypix@gmail.com ...AND PLEASE SEND THEM IN A GOOD FORMAT - 300 DPR Jpegs IF POSSIBLE. LOVE, BENNY TO ALL MY FRIENDS;
I'M WRITING YOU THIS LETTER BECAUSE I FEEL YOU NEED TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON WITH ME AND THE CHRISTMAS SHOW THAT I HOLD SO DEAR TO MY HEART... I LOOK FORWARD TO THE ANNUAL CHRISTMAS SHOW LIKE I USED TO LOOK FORWARD TO GOING TO MY GRANDPARENTS HOME TO WAIT FOR SANTA CLAUS WHEN I WAS A LITTLE BOY WITH MY SISTER LOUISE... IT WAS MORE THAN SANTA CLAUS AND SNOW...IT WAS A TEMPORARY ESCAPE FROM THE VIOLENCE AND ANGER THAT EXISTED IN MY HOME FROM A STEP FATHER WHO WAS OUT OF CONTROL...AND COMING TO SYRACUSE FOR THE ANNUAL SHOW IS THAT SAME FEELING OF JOY THAT I FELT BACK THEN... RECENTLY MY HEALTH HAS TAKEN A TOLL ON ME AND I FEEL THE CLOCK TICKING WITH REGARD TO MY PERFORMING LIVE AND FRANKLY IT SCARES THE HELL OUTTA ME...YOU KNOW ME...YOU KNOW I'LL SING TIL THEY PULL THE MIKE FROM MY HAND... THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF RUMORS ABOUT THIS PALACE SHOW AND THE EAT AND GREET...FOR REASONS I DON'T UNDERSTAND PEOPLE ARE SAYING THINGS THAT AREN'T TRUE AND TRYING TO TAINT THE EVENT... THIS SHOW IS BEING PRODUCED BY ME AND PEOPLE I ASKED TO HELP... I NO LONGER WANT TO HOPE THINGS GO WELL, I WANT TO KNOW THEY WILL, FOR YOU AND ME. IT HURTS ME TO THINK THAT MY FANS WOULD PUT UP WITH THIS KIND OF TREATMENT BECAUSE THIS IS'NT 'MY' CHRISTMAS SHOW...THIS IS 'OUR' CHRISTMAS SHOW.. I'M ASKING YOU TO TURN OUT IN NUMBERS TO BOTH AN EVENING TOGETHER FOR DINNER AND LAUGHTER...AND TO A SHOW UNLIKE I'VE EVER DONE....THE STORIES BEHIND THE SONGS (AND STORIES YOU HAVE NEVER HEARD, TRUST ME).....JOIN ME, WON'T YOU, FOR A NIGHT WE'LL NEVER FORGET..CLOSE TO HOME AT THE PALACE THEATER. LOVE, BENNY MARDONES |
