Why the long break? Like you all missed me! No one even knows who the hell I am? I talk shit about acting, dickwads that want to be actors, and occasionally, write about some credible, talented people.
In a nutshell, I've had a lot of stuff happen, both bad and good, that kept me locked in fear from sharing anything with you! I decided, on this early April 11th, to start anew. Evolve. Cambiar.....de Sexo! Ay! That's a Spanish joke. Won't work in Ingles! Trust me.
As you can see, I changed the name of the Blog from "El Comandante" to "El Comandante de La Brea & Melrose". Why? If you care to ask?
Just talking about acting shit only reaches those of us that are pursing a career in Hollywood. Meh!
I love my neighborhood, and Lord knows how many drinks I've slammed down at the establishments between La Brea and Fairfax- on Melrose. That's not including the places in Larchmont Village, and all the new spots opening in the area.
I'm not a restaurant critic, but I want to offer some insight on where a fellow neighbor, from whatever field of work, can easily kick his or her boots up, order a Sarsaparilla, and enjoy the night without all that Hollywood Bullshit!
I am evolving. Into what? Who the hell knows? A stupid ass fool posted this on FB, but it makes sense, cuz we all striving to connect with one another on some level.
" I flip out to easily! I'm not perfect, but I expect people to approach life with respect and common sense. I'm guilty of disconnecting, falling victim to playing with my phone when I'm alone at a bar, coffee, shop, restaurant, etc. However, I love the nights when you just want to be left alone, yet you end up having a great conversation with a fellow artist. That makes the other shit I deal with on a regular basis all worth it. Conversation! Good night my friends!"- Wise Latino Actor ;)
Stirring a Hollywood Revolution with Common Sense and Laughter. It's hard enough to get work as an actor. I might as well make you smile (while chasing the dream) by calling out all the poseurs, scammers, and knuckle heads.
