Just finished our first big shoot for . . .

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010

Rockin’ the Wall (website is launched: http://www.rockinthewall.com) and we got Euro star Leslie Mandoki, Robby Krieger of the Doors, David Paich of Toto, and Hollywood composer (“Princess & the Frog”) John Van Tongeren. John is an old rock and roll buddy of mine from a band called “Whip” (note: not whip IT) and all of them were great interviews.

Robby and David both played for us on camera. How great is it to have these stars playing in front of you? David showed how he wrote “Africa” and “Rosanna.”

  1. Oh, and I’ll be on the Glenn Beck national TV show NEXT FRIDAY!

    Can’t wait to see this stuff! What a great project!


  3. Jim Bjaloncik says:

    Professor S – Looking forward to seeing you on Beck’s show next week. I also hope you’ll comment on his program on the
    Progressive Movement that will be on tomorrow.


  4. Nancy Nowak says:

    Your book , The Patriot’s Guide, is no longer available at Amazon! Will it be again soon? I hope so. I want to order it soon.


  5. The publishers are cranking out books at an incredible rate. They shipped 5,000 more last week, 10,000 more this week, and another 10,000 the following week. Some of what you are experiencing is weather delay. Note the message on Amazon—our publisher’s presses were closed for two days during the heavy snow (which these morons keep trying to tie to “global warming”). Fear not! New books are on the way.


  6. Professor Schweikart,
    The more I read about your documentary film project, the better it gets. Since the Beatles played for a long time – year or longer as the house band – at a club in Germany, I wonder how their influence might have spread – certainly some of their lyrics were revolutionary in their time. So are you going after an interview with Sir Paul?

    By the way, I want to publicly thank you for your help in providing guidance and encouragement with the development of the Wayback Machine 2 educational video game. It is on its way to find the funding necessary for its development. Once it is produced, tested, tweaked and released, our 4D game is destined to make a very significant and very positive difference in students’ knowledge of history.

    Best wishes,
    Tom Nocera


  7. The Beatles are truly legends! I wish i could write music like them.
