Race Rockstar
Race Rocking Out and having fun at the Mann Music Center this past August this is just a great short less than 10 second clip that shows how much of a Rockstar Race really is 24/7.
This is all from the same show. Race went up on stage too and beat boxed with Biz Marquee. The crowd actually was clapping for him because he matched Biz’s beats perfectly. What a great guy Biz Markee really psyched he was there to open their eyes to even more physically forms of music.
Here is just a great shot of genuine excitement and jubilation from Maz when the show started. He just couldn’t believe he was there and going to sing and dance with them. Oh to be a child right! Just such pure genuine happiness on his face!
We went to the Yo Gabba Gabba concert at the Mann Music Center in Philadelphia and Maz was in heaven. He got to meet and dance with the characters but on the ultra fun and cool side he went up on stage and did a little freestyle Beatboxing with Biz Marquee.
This is Race and Maz putting on a long concert for our friend’s daughter Fionna to say Happy Birthday to her.
This is a really quick video from a kids show we went to at the World Cafe in Philadelphia last week. The band, musician, performer was Uncle Rock a really great guy from Upstate NY. He played some of his own stuff and some covers. Race and Maz loved him and he invited the kids up on stage that is what this video is of. Maz ended up getting off the stage after one song but Race stayed for the rest of the performance. He definitely got the stage “bug”. I am going to post a longer video with that footage. But Uncle Rock was the greatest! He even sang a 7 minute Superhero Medley for the boys after the show on a staircase. Just a great guy - tops in our book!
Hey so this is a video from last summer (2009) when we went to the Warped Tour and the guys from A Day to Remember asked Race to open for them. We were hanging out backstage and Race was drumming with them. Race actually thought he was going to really drum for them. You only have to watch the first 60 seconds or so - watch closely and you can see Race and then me trying to get him off of the stage. The band was really nice and it was a great experience for him. Anna one of Joyce’s friends found this on YouTube. Once the band starts really singing we are off the stage (just an FYI).
Here is a great compilation video we made for Michan’s Dad (Popo). It is just a nice peak at a day in the life or a few days I’m not sure of Race and Maz rocking-out in the rock-and-roll room. Race all of a sudden got into Techno music. Too funny! He likes this band Wooden Art I think we heard them on Beatport I forget but I can’t find a video of them. He (or DJ Martin) made a Techno Mix CD over the weekend with a bunch of Techno artists I’m sure you know most of them so I’m not going to bore you with their names. The disc was for his Popo so that was cool and something new which is even cooler. I got to pull out my turntables so that was great. I can spin much better than I can play guitar so at least I can teach him something. Enjoy!
I was starting to feel like Maz was getting left out a bit so I found this footage of Mazzie rocking out. Just a fun quick video of him singing and playing the guitar in our rock-and-roll room or basement as it is normally called.
CLICK ON THIS PHOTO to see Race’s first photo album on Flickr this is from October 2006 - December 2007. It is just so crazy how focused he is an how much the guitar and drums and music are such a huge part of his life and his being. He is just 2 years old - 3 years-old here.
