TORONTO, CANADA When a company celebrates 50 years of existence it is a big deal. When Chum radio lights the 50 candles it's a humungos city celebration. One of the hottest dj's to hit the airwaves, was a good looking young man with a voice that said RADIO. Scott Carpenter returned to the helm as comfortable as he was 30 years ago when he hosted The Scott Carpenter Show. The Boogie Man as he was and is still known. displayed the same enthusiasm on air today as if it were yesteryear. Chum has been spinning hits and entertaining the metropolis since we can remember. Jimi and his band Abraham's Children have a lot to thank the monster of AM radio, they've been playing his music since 1972. When Jimi received an email from Scott asking if he would be his guest artist while in Toronto, Jimi was honored. He remembers the Boogie Man and all the kind words he would always say about AC. Jimi thought it would be fun to bring Nick Mancuso along for some humorous tech decor. They arrived at the landmark station and were greeted by Brad Jones program director.The studio was buzzing and the air was so thick of nostalgia you'd swear Elvis was hanging around. Jimi and Nick settled in their chairs and the circus began. cheers...2007 iUpdate Reporter - Kant Gettalon Photos courtesy of WOW2210 PRODUCTIONS.

September 29th, 2007. Toronto. SOCAN (Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada) symposium for Film & Television. Richard Crouse, host of TV's "Reel to Reel", author of numerous books on pop culture history and film critic for CTV's Canada AM. Jimi and Richard hooked up for this pic after a panel discussion which Richard hosted. The two compared notes on big Italian family dinners, Richard's fiancé happens to be Italian.

Troiano (con't) - What have we here mon ami?....why, it's our pop rocker friend Jimi Bertucci and the rebel of soul David Clayton Thomas. The two caught up at the 2ND Annual Domenic Troiano Tribute "We All Need Love". It was a who's who of musica Canadiana moguls and entertainers. From the aging artists, ex-record executives, engineers, roadies, radio personalities and some others that just wanted to be there to honor one of the most talented musicians ever to emerge from the great white north. Held at the prestigious Palais Royale on Toronto's picturesque lakefront, the night could not have been more perfect. The venue has recently undergone an impressive face lift that even further enhanced the classic deco look it was once known for. The big moon reflected its almost full light off the calm dark lake. The music echoed for miles in celebration and the memories of a great artist danced on the glistening waters. The gala was emceed by seventies radio personality John Donabie. Guests and performers included Brenda Russell, John Finlay & The Checkmates, Doug Riley, Bernie LaBarge, Wayne St. John, Howard Ayee, Sam Consiglio, Shawne Jackson, Prakash John, Jay Jackson, Bob Seagarini, Seb Agnello, George Semkiew, Tom Wilson, Roy Kenner, Mike Sloski and many many others. We drank, sang to familiar songs and conversed about our friend. We all had stories or accolades to spread around...speaking of which, Jimi had a bone to pick with DCT. He walked up to David and insisted that he apologize for his rude behavior when Jimi was a mere 13 year old curious young boy. During that time, Jimi could often be found at the top of the stairs of The Concord Tavern where DCT and The Shays would rehearse. One day while Jimi was soaking in the sounds ears afull, Mr. Clayton walked up behind him, grabbed him by his shirt collar and told him "if you don't leave I'm going to throw you down the f***in stairs".....wow was that not so cool.... David pondered for a minute and said "Jimi, I can't remember, I threw so many people down the stairs". The celebratory festivities also included a silent auction where one-of-a-kind signed photographs the likes of Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Justin Timberlake, etc. etc. were up for bid. Proceeds benefited the Toronto East General Hospital where Domenic was treated and eventually lost his battle with prostate cancer in 2005. It was truly a magical setting to honor a Canadian musical icon. June 2007 - Reporter Kant Gettalon

Actors, directors and producers such as Frank Mancuso, Francis Ford Coppolla, Martin Scorsese, Robert DeNiro, Al Pacino, Ben Gazzara, John Travolta and other Italian decendants will guest the events with hopes that their insight to the industry will deliver a postive message and encourage young actors, filmmakers and directors to explore a wide spectrum to making and marketing movies.
