Bruna Jones Interview Erick Macek

Hello, hello... How are you, dear readers? So today is the day to check out another unprecedented interview here on the blog, look how cool? And today's guest is international, which makes everything even more fun... We invited musician Erick Macek to know a little more about his career experiences and also to talk a little about his participation in the American "The Voice". Come check out a little more about all this!

Bruna Jones: You are a singer and songwriter, but before we talk more about it, let's go back to the beginning of everything? How did you become interested in music and realize that you would like to make a career in the field?
Erick Macek: My family influenced me musically very early on. Believe it or not, I learned to play accordion at around the age of 3. My family immigrated from Slovakia, so music and culture was always an integral part of my life. However, not until college did I pick up the guitar and start writing my own music and when I was 25yrs old, I won overall singer at a global competition and that’s when I packed my bags and moved to California to pursue my music career. 

Bruna Jones: Career start is usually a little more complicated, especially for those looking for an artistic career, whether due to lack of opportunities or even financial instability... How was the beginning of your journey so far?
Erick Macek: My journey has been filled with similar hardships like financial instability. My parents immigrated with $50 in their pocket and in general, we grew up very poor. We made the most of what we had and I’ve learned to never take things for granted. Growing up without a lot of money built a survivalist mentality and a drive in me that always wants to succeed. We all are capable of being successful with some discipline and an open mind to learn. My journey continues and I continue to learn. Changing your perspective to embrace each opportunity is a key difference between being stressed and hopeless, to being grateful and hopeful. 

Bruna Jones: Every artist is usually a little strict and perfectionist in relation to their work, do you usually demand more from yourself when you are composing or organizing an artistic project? If yes, how do you deal with it?
Erick Macek: Yes. I am extremely hard on myself. One way I have learned to deal with it is to let go and trust the process. I have missed many opportunities because I tried to make things too perfect instead of simply creating and using that opportunity to learn. The reality is that nothing is perfect. We should learn to fail, but fail forward. What I mean by that is to learn from the process, not get too attached to feedback or criticism and always make sure you create and evolve your craft because you enjoy it. Never forget why you started. 

Bruna Jones: The life of a musician and composer is made of talent as well as creativity and inspiration, what usually inspires you when composing?
Erick Macek: Life and the constant evolution of life. We all have strong connections in our stories. We yearn to be heard and share our experiences with each other. As I mentioned earlier, music and culture have always been an integral part of my life. People, places, experiences and possibility are all things that influence and inspire me. Storytelling and being able to relate to one another is a powerful connection that is a key ingredient in creativity. 

Bruna Jones: Ten years ago you tried to participate in "The Voice". What motivated you to enroll in the program?
Erick Macek: Honestly, my friends urged me to try out. At the time, The Voice was in its first season and I wasn’t under contract, I didn’t have a manager, so I decided to give it a shot. 

Bruna Jones: Although you didn't advance in the competition, was it a good experience for you?
Erick Macek: It was a very good experience for me. I met a lot of talented people in front of and behind the camera. It gave me a better understanding of production on a larger scale. It helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses both musically and as a person. I gained confidence knowing that I was 1 out of 100,000 that even made it as far as I did. And I was grateful to share my parents story on national television.  

Bruna Jones: Speaking of platforms... To publicize their work, singers depend on communication vehicles (TV, radio, newspapers, internet...). To what extent do you believe these vehicles influence the singer's work?
Erick Macek: I believe it depends on the individual. I also believe that the popularity of all the social platforms influences a singer’s work tremendously. We are now at a level of convenience and instant gratification where these communication vehicles want our attention. And what we watch, like and share, influences what we see, read and hear. They evoke emotions that is always a driver for an artists’ work. 

Bruna Jones: You were named “Best Male Vocalist of the Year at the Los Angeles Music Awards”. How was that moment for you?
Erick Macek: That was a very surreal moment for me. This honor happened early in my music career, where I’d only been in California for a few years. It’s something that I cherish, and it served as personal reminder that I was where I was supposed to be. Singing, writing and performing. 

Bruna Jones: Fortunately, even if little by little, we are managing to resume our social and professional life, right? And with that, projects can be put into practice and new things emerge... Is there anything new coming? Something you can share with us?
Erick Macek: I am always creating, whether it’s music, art, video or other forms of creative expression. I used to write and record singles and albums with digital distribution and then support the new releases with tours and performances. With the pandemic and the music industry ever evolving, I am still creating, but with a larger focus on content. I am trying to break my perfectionist ways and get back to where and why I started. I want to create because I love it and I want to share that expression with others. I recently wrote a new song with my wife, Laura and am looking to create new content that I can share throughout my social channels. It will be an imperfectly perfect blend of new material that I’m trying out.

Bruna Jones: I could not end this interview without asking: Have you been to Brazil? Would you like to come visit us when everything is back to normal?
Erick Macek: I have not visited Brazil and would absolutely LOVE to visit, perform and experience the music and culture of your beautiful country. 

Cool our conversation, isn't it? And she even left a message before going, look: "Live your life to your fullest potential. Be present and embrace each moment and keep learning. Nothing comes easy, but if you’re passionate about something, it’s worth the time you put into it. Above all, love each other, be kind to each other. Thank you to all who support my work." and if you want to keep following him on social media, just search for Instagram or Twitter @erickmacek, Facebook HERE, YouTube HERE, Spotify HERE and Website HERE.

Bruna Jones Interview Jo O'Meara

Hello, hello... Are you all right, dear readers? So today is the day to check out another new interview here on the blog, how cool is that? And our interviewee today is international, which makes it all the more fun! I invited the dearest singer Jo O'Meara, who was and continues to be part of it throughout my life, to talk a little about the beginning of her career, the time of "S Club 7" and also talk a little about what she is doing nowadays, it was a really cool conversation that you check out now!

Bruna Jones: You have a very broad artistic career, which goes from acting, music... To the other side, as a songwriter. But before we talk about it any further, let's go back a little bit. How did you end up being inserted in this artistic universe and what motivated you to pursue a career in this area? 
Jo O'Meara: I came into the music world by accident, really. I sang a song called "the locomotion" on a karaoke when I was younger and I sang it well! From then on it was always music! But my all time hero who I looked up too was Karen Carpenter, I loved everything about her voice and tone! She made me want to keep singing, so that’s what I did

Bruna Jones: Artists in general are usually quite perfectionists in relation to everything they do, especially in this era when everything is almost instantly on the internet. Do you tend to be more critical of your work or do you try to keep a distance? 
Jo O'Meara: I am the most critical of my own work! In a studio or on stage live I am always trying to be the best I can! And if I got a dud note or something isn’t sounding perfect to me I will keep going until I get it right! Maybe that’s a good thing?? Well I hope it is... lol 

Bruna Jones: You managed to achieve world fame at a very young age when you joined the group "S Club 7", as it was for you to be so young and suddenly see yourself as a public person, with many fans around the world, having to be in television shows and in a way, having your privacy exposed to the world? 

Jo O'Meara: Being thrown into the public eye so suddenly was definitely a bit of a shock, as I don’t think any of us were expecting it as quick as it came. But to be filming tv shows and making albums was amazing and also getting to travel the world was pretty incredible too! So on the whole I was very lucky. 🍀

Bruna Jones: With "S Club 7" you had the opportunity to sing and also interpret a fictional version of yourself in some series and movies like "Seeing Double". How was it for you to combine these two artistic sides of you? 
Jo O'Meara: I think the tv and the music were two different things, on the tv show they were enhanced and more character based as with the music that was just us being ourselves! It was fun to play a tougher me in the tv shows lol 😝 always fixing cars, etc... Which is something I definitely can’t do in real life!!

Bruna Jones: Looking back today, what was the biggest and best lesson you learned from this experience with the "S Club 7"?
Jo O'Meara: I learned that to achieve anything in life, you have to work hard!! Also to enjoy the little moments that come along.

Bruna Jones: Speaking of "S Club 7" you will be releasing this week a new version of "Never Had a Dream", a song that touches the hearts of so many people around the world. Can you tell us a little bit about this new release? 

Jo O'Meara: I’m so excited to be re releasing "Never Had a Dream" after all these years! In fact it’s 21 years old now, which is crazy!! I’ve done this version much more stripped back and acoustic which has given it a slightly different more mature vibe... I’m very happy with how it came out!

Bruna Jones: You recently released your new album "With Love", can you share with us a little bit of the creative process you had in this project? 
Jo O'Meara: Doing the album was amazing. Just being able to get back in the studio and record again is something I wanted for so long! So to be back doing it is a dream come true for me! Also getting more hands on with the writing was incredible! I’m very proud of it. 

Bruna Jones: As I said earlier, you are in a career that usually inspires people around you, either directly or indirectly... But in your personal or professional life, what usually inspires you? 
Jo O'Meara: I’m inspired by people who are passionate about there dreams! I’m inspired by music in general and I’m also inspired by the strong people I have in my life!! 

Bruna Jones: The year is already coming to an end and both in Brazil and in the world we are managing to slowly resume our life after the period of social isolation. Still, are there any news coming out there? Something you can share with us? 

Jo O'Meara: Yes we are finally getting very slowly back to some form of the new normal!! I’m just so glad to be back on stage! And next year I will be doing lots of shows all over! New music and another album. 💿

Bruna Jones: Before ending this interview, I couldn't help asking, have you ever been to Brazil? Would you like to come visit us when possible?
Jo O'Meara: I would absolutely love to come to Brazil!!! A live show over there would be amazing!! Fingers crossed 🤞 

Cool our conversation, isn't it? And she even left a message before going, look: "To all the fans in Brazil!! Thankyou so much for all the support over the years! It really does mean the world to me! Hopefully I will come over very soon and sing for you guys! Your the best. 🥰" and if you want to keep following her on social media, just search for @joomeara on Twitter, @jo_omeara on Instagram or click HERE to check out her page on YouTube.

Bruna Jones Interview Dale Savage

Hello, hello... All right, my dear readers? So today is the day to check out another interview here on the blog, look how cool? Following the special of interviewed with actors of the accompaniment of adult films, you already know, right? You must have a responsible adult permission to continue reading if you are a minor. If you are already an adult, come to know a little more about a career and how to make the actor Dale Savage. Look how cool it was or our talk!

Bruna Jones: Despite your short time acting in adult films, you already have a large representation in the industry with more than 120 works in your curriculum, but before we talk a little more about it, let's go back a little bit in the past, shall we? What did you used to do or work with before you started acting in adult videos?

Dale Savage: This will blow peoples minds but for 30 years i was a Firefighter / paramedic for a large city in Ohio. The last 15 i was an officer, none of the guys knew i was into guys... it was a pretty conservative area and telling them would not be worth the risk of loosing their respect and becoming the butt of jokes behind my back. They found out in a big way though... seeing me in porn. And honestly they could have given a shit... they thought it was pretty cool.

Bruna Jones: Some people enter adult entertainment for fame, money or even pleasure. What motivated you to start making these movies?

Dale Savage: Back in the day i had a friend that used to be a "Falcon" model and it intrigued me. After i retired i wanted to know if i was good enough mentally to do it, so i whipped myself into shape took the needed nude pics and began applying to studios. I do not do it for money, i'm doing just fine financially, i do it for fun and doing something that really takes some courage to do. Because once you're out there you have no walls and nothing hide behind.

Bruna Jones: Every beginning of a career is usually a little more complicated, I imagine even more for those who are exposing themselves in front of so many people. How was the beginning of your journey as an actor? 

Dale Savage: It was liberating to tell you the truth. Porn is what it is and what you make out of it, for me it made me a much better person. Like i said before any wall that i had (which i had plenty) are quickly torn down and opens you up to be who you want to be. 

Bruna Jones: Nowadays pornography has become much more accessible to the entire world, a small recording can go viral in a matter of minutes and with that more people are consuming this type of material, from an actor's point of view, do you believe that even today can there be prejudice against those who work in this profession? 

Dale Savage: There will always be people that object to pornography and that is their right. My feeling is if you dont like it,,, dont watch it. But also dont bash us while you secretly sit in the bathroom jerking off to porn then go to church on sunday condemning us. 

Bruna Jones: Artists in general tend to be perfectionists about the work they do, do you have the habit of watching your own videos and analyzing the work you do? 

Dale Savage: Contrary to popular belief the studios very very rarely notify you when a scene is released, and they dont give us free access to watch the entire scene. When you see it on twitter thats when we know its out and we see the same clip as eveyone else... But i dont critique myself sexually its more of a physical evaluation of your body and how good it looks...thats the tough part for me because you tend to be overly critical of your physical appearance. 

Bruna Jones: As I said at the beginning of our interview, you've participated in more than 120 recordings throughout your career, I imagine you have some funny or unusual stories about backstage. Could you share an unforgettable one?

Dale Savage: 120??? oh my lord...had no idea it was that many Some shoots are definitely more memorable than other but a incident that always comes to mind occured at TSA after a shoot. The shoot was running long and had to get to the airport right after the cum shot. So i literally cum, get dressed and get an Uber to the airport. When i got to the airport i still had a raging hard on tucked up in my waist band, i got through the TSA machine and i get flagged. The guy starts patting me down and asked whats in my waist band. I look him squarely in the eyes and said.."i just got done shooting a porno and i still got a boner" he quickly looked and smiled and said "can you tuck it down at least" We smiled and gave each other that look and off i went

Bruna Jones: Despite being in this industry for a short time, his career is already well established. What is it like for you to have all this recognition? What do you intend to do with this success in the future? Are there any long-term plans for what you are doing? 

Dale Savage: I'm still amazed that people recognize me, i'm a pretty unassuming person, but when people do ask are you Dale Savage i'm always very polite and thankful to them. I live in the mountains of Colorado and fly in and out the cities where i shoot at. To me its important to shoot and go home and not immerse myself in the porn culture when not working. I have an incredible life when i'm not Dale. When i retired as a firefighter my goal was to live in Colorado where i enjoy the incredible beauty and healthy outdoor lifestyle. Getting into porn was not even on my mind when i moved here. When my porn career is complete ( which is not to far off ) i have a great life out here which i would never give up 

Bruna Jones: In the United States and Brazil, reality shows are on the rise. There are several... "The Voice", "Survivor", "Big Brother"... If you were invited to participate in one, would you accept? 

Dale Savage: Nah, that does nothing for me. Dale is a persona of me, even though there is alot of me in Dale. I personally don't want to be known as a porn star i want to be known as a incredible father, friend and caring person that just happened to be fortunate to be a porn star for a period in an incredible life.

Bruna Jones: Have you been to Brazil at any time? Would you like to come visit us when possible? 

Dale Savage: No i've never been to Brazil i've always wanted to go and experience the beauty and culture of that country....and of course see all the beautiful men there😀 

Bruna Jones: The year is almost over, but still... Is there any news of yours coming? Something you can share with your fans? 

Dale Savage: Things have slowed down for me i'm not the fresh faced daddy that i was a few years back. In this business you have to understand that ...i took somebody's spot and someone will be taking my spot and thats ok with me. But the castings that ive been receiving are higher quality, dialogue driven, character roles which i totally enjoy m ore than the typical "fuck flicks" These catings are from Next Door Studios and there sites Taboo Men, Pure Taboo and Disruptive Films They areall high quality multi camera all day events. There are about four that are awaiting release and feature Chris Damned, Calvin Banks, Carter Del Ray, Jack Bailey,Roman Todd, Pierce Paris and Korra Del Rio...these are all the best in the busines and the content shows it 

Cool our conversation, is not it? And he still left a message, look: "First i never realized that i have such a great supportive fan base down there. You probably hear this all the time but i mean it when i say this.....I love my fans if it wasn't for you guys i would never have been able to experience this incredible ride that i've been on the last 4 years. Please feel free to email me off my twiiter account i respond to all of them as long as they stay within boundaries. But even then i will resond. PS....GET VACCINATED"  About your social media, he said: "My only social media is on twitter @TheDaleSavage i do not use facebook or IG, i do not trust them or Mark Zuckerburg one bit," 

And I? Soon I'll be back with a new interview. Any news I come back, remembering that anyone who wants to contact me, can add on facebook, searching for "Bruna Jones" and now in the official page of the blog, you find exclusive content: click here! You can also search and follow on Twitter and Instagram at @odiariodebrunaj right?

Bruna Jones Interview Jovan Jordan

Hello, hello... All right, my dear readers? So today is the day to check out another interview here on the blog, look how cool? Following the special of interviewed with actors of the accompaniment of adult films, you already know, right? You must have a responsible adult permission to continue reading if you are a minor. If you are already an adult, come to know a little more about a career and how to make the actor Jovan Jordan. Look how cool it was or our talk!

Bruna Jones: Let's start from the beginning. What did you used to do or work before you started acting for adult videos?
Jovan Jordan: Before entering the adult entertainment industry. I had attended college, worked regular entry level jobs, and modeled. While attending college my major was Political Science/African American Studies. At the time I had aspirations of becoming an lawyer. With that I thought about possible law schools that I wanted to attend. I thought about why I wanted to become an lawyer and what I possibly do and what suited my aspirations at the time. At the time I thought about all the possibilities I could do and how to unlock my dreams into reality. During that time I worked various of entry level jobs also I competed in track & field 400m NAIA Division 2 for an period and had an couple opportunities to further that but that's an story for another time.

Bruna Jones: Some people go into adult entertainment for fame, money or even for pleasure. What motivated you to start making these movies?
Jovan Jordan: I was born and raised in Gary, Indiana, where your faced with an choice face adversity and overcome or fold up. I had the drive to always go get what I set my mind too. I always wanted to live in Los Angeles since I was a youth. I spoke that into existence. I was thought about originally modeling and acting in mainstream films. For me I felt being adult entertainment was a challenge for me an chance for fresh start and achieve my goal moving to LA. Before entering the adult industry I had done some amateur videos to see how I felt about it and could i do it. Now what lead me to entering the adult industry was me coming to a cross roads. I originally had gotten my GED. Before entering college I started off small. At first i enrolled in a Medical Assisting Program, where I completed an Medical Assisting Program/Phlebotomist. Then I went to school for Surgical Tech program nearly i as I was about to graduate I found out the program was accredited after putting two years in. So I left but had to handle the that situation so I worked and did what I had to do. Which eventually lead me going to back to college and running track. My junior/senior year in college I was informed that I didn't my loans ran out. I had setbacks even with track I had a potential scholarship on the line which I could have further track and field for me but things didn't pan out for me in that way. So as I sat in the office I knew I had to go about things differently all these things happen and I asked myself what do I now. I came home work and hustle. I got into then modeling and decided let me see if I get into adult entertainment industry and rebuild me up and go for. There. Treat it like a job and go far as I can as long as I can.

Bruna Jones: How was for you the first time you recorded an adult video? What do you think about having thousands of people checking your videos daily?
Jovan Jordan: Well my first time for doing an adult video. I was living in Gary, Indiana. At this time I was out of school working and doing what I had to do to get by. So I would do research and also around about the Adult Industry. I got in contact with an company called Green Clover Entertainment. It was in Chicago it was like 2 or 3 am I did the shoot with an female talent Ms. Head Rush. I wasn't nervous. I just came in and did what I had to do I got through it and I felt I think I can do this. And the rest is history. It doesn't bother me but it's like wow it's an life changing event but it's dope to me.

Bruna Jones: Many people are very perfectionists about the artwork, do you have the habit of watching your own videos?
Jovan Jordan: Yes I am hard on myself and how I look and even more harder now.

Bruna Jones: When you are not acting, what do you usually do in your day to day?
Jovan Jordan: I am up early posting, got my music going, exercise, posting, errands, and chilling and even when I am chilling I make sure I am doing something productive.

Bruna Jones: Nowadays porn has become much more accessible to the world, a small recording can go viral in a matter of minutes and more and more people are consuming this stuff from an actor's point of view. Do you believe that even today there may be prejudice with those who work in this profession?
Jovan Jordan: I think the way things are now I think being in adult industry is seen more as a job/hustle and people don't trip about it. Regardless people with accept you or not, no matter what you do in life. What matters is do you accept you for you. That's what matters you only can live for you.

Bruna Jones: Lately, you have been producing your own content only on fans, how did you come up with the idea of ​​further covering your work on the internet?
Jovan Jordan: Yes it's hustle that's another job but it pays off and has helped me immensely.

Bruna Jones: Your career is already well established. What is it like for you to have all this recognition? What do you intend to do with her in the future? Is there any long term plan for what you are doing?
Jovan Jordan: Make the most of my time, work as much as I can. Yes I do I goals and plans but the left hand doesn't tell the right hand doing feel me. lol

Bruna Jones: In the United States and Brazil, reality shows are in vogue. There are several ... "The Voice", "Survivor", "Big Brother" ... If you were invited to join one, would you accept?
Jovan Jordan: I don't watch TV like that believe it or not to be honest or reality shows. I would want to do something cool idk it's an toss up I probably I do them all if I could.

Bruna Jones: Have you ever been to Brazil? Would you like to visit us?
Jovan Jordan: I haven't been overseas yet but I do want to travel and of course!

Cool our conversation, is not it? And he still left a message, look: "I appreciate of you for supporting and thank you for rocking with me!!! Also thank you for Interviewing me! You can find me on twitter @1jovanjordanxxx and my IG is @jovanjordan1"

Bruna Jones Interview Scott Patterson

Hello dear readers, I hope everyone is well and seated, that today is the day to check out a very special interview here on the blog! Nor am I believing that I was able to bring this conversation I had with the actor and musician, Scott Patterson to you guys. For you who live on Mars, Scott was featured as the male lead in the great television series recently revived by Netflix, "Gilmore Girls," as well as numerous other series and movies. Today you will check a little more about your career, including about your band, "SMITHRADIO". Come with me!

Bruna Jones: You have a very wide artistic career. How did you decide you wanted to develop your artistic side?
Scott Patterson: It wasn't a decision because I was always doing it from the time I was a small child. It's a natural state for me. I'm constantly creating because I see the world - and my life - as this grand experiment. I also have to be careful because whatever I focus my mind on it usually comes to fruition. My mother taught me how to do this. She could access a larger percentage of her brain for just such activity and she taught me the secret. Life is what you make it and believe me you can make your life in any way you want.

Bruna Jones: What were the main difficulties you encountered in building your career in Hollywood?
Scott Patterson: It wasn't difficult. I'm very disciplined so I knew it was just a matter of time. I worked hard at my craft. Became an expert. You have to put in the hours. That isn't hard for me.

Bruna Jones: You gained international fame by playing the "Gilmore Girls" series that recently gained a revival by Netflix. How did you feel returning in this four part special?
Scott Patterson: It felt great. Loved seeing everyone and the work was better because we were all so relaxed. We knew this was just a temporary situation and perhaps the last so we savored it more.

Bruna Jones: How did "SMITHRADIO" happen?
Scott Patterson: It's always been. It just happened to be the right time with the right guys. Great players and my songwriting got better so I felt more confident going out and playing live. You have to have the songs and I have the songs.

Bruna Jones: Do you write for the band? What are your main musical influences?
Scott Patterson: I wrote all the songs, yes. Influences are many - Hendrix, Bowie, Beatles, Stones, Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Aerosmith etc. so many. I love Noel Gallagher and Paul Weller. Florence and the Machine. She's heaven. They are simply gifted songwriters. Love 'The Verve.' 'Slide Away' might be the best rock song of the last thirty years. I don't know if he wrote it but Liam Gallagher's "Wall Of Glass" is what rock is all about. Grabs you right away. Also love Rita Ora, Rihanna, Fergie, Pink. Demi Lovato. They can wail. I love talent that wails.

Bruna Jones: Do you believe that the social media that we have today benefits the artist more or can end up hurting while helping?
Scott Patterson: Both. It helps spread the word on all revenue streams and may enhance them but overall I think napster and Apple have destroyed revenue streams for artists because they saw an opening. The record industry was too slow to pivot in a digital world and got crushed. The idea that full albums got in the way of Apple's business model hurt artists in general and it's ironic since Jobs himself was such a Dylan fan. I loved getting lost in an album - its art, it hidden messages, its liner notes, its 10-13 songs arranged in well thought out order - Album sales simply don't exist anymore and that's sad. Consumers are getting more choices but are not able to immerse themselves in the world of the artist's creation, which was always the primary marketing focus - the album. The album is the band's soul. The album communicated on every level. That touchstone is gone and I think to the detriment of the consumer and the world of music as a whole. A lot of great music is getting to the marketplace but at a much reduced value and depth. Steve Jobs may have made a great deal for Apple but his vision reduced the artist to virtual insignificance - and that was really the point, wasn't it? - to minimize the artist as a negotiating tool while wiping out the individual's message, and therefore contributing yet another body blow to individuality as we "progress" further into this digital realm. I am still stunned that so many big artists agreed to Jobs' demands. Not only are they paying the price, we all are.

Bruna Jones: You have the gift of acting and singing.. Ever thought about getting involved in movies or musical theater? Is it something you would consider doing?
Scott Patterson: I have done several movies. I was offered the lead in Repo: The Genetic Opera which was a rock opera and I very much wanted to do it but I was working on a series at that time and couldn't get my schedule to work. I have never wanted a role more that that one - and by he same token never wanted to be off a show more than the one I was on. Lol. When it was cancelled after the first season I threw the biggest party in the history of parties! That was nine years ago and the cops are still showing up at my house from the echoes!

Bruna Jones: You just built a coffee company called "Scotty P's Big Mug Coffee", how is it being split between the company and its musical side in "SMITHRADIO"?
Scott Patterson: My attention is now on my coffee company "Scotty P's Big Mug Coffee". We are launching before the holidays so there is a tremendous amount of work to do. It's taken over my life for the foreseeable future. I love my blends and my main concern is giving my customers a rich, smooth flavor at a low price. I look forward to serving the world my special blends of coffee. The tour was great. We played 25 shows in 7 states and sold out every venue. Loved every minute of it. Being away from my family was hard but that's the trade off. In the future I will play less shows but in larger venues. It's all about the coffee now.

Bruna Jones: Have you ever been to Brazil? Would you like to come and visit us?
Scott Patterson: Never been but would love to tour there. Absolutely. Love my Brazilian fans.

Bruna Jones: And is there any news coming soon? Something you can talk about?
Scott Patterson: "Scotty P's Big Mug Coffee" will be available online very soon. You are going to love the taste, flavor and, most of all, the price! It's the best quality coffee - at its price point - in the world.

So, my dear... I hope you have enjoyed the surprise... I am still dancing with happiness here. But before finishing, come check out a special message from our dear Scott: "Hello Brazilian fans. I love you and want to marry you all. Let's set a date and have a massive ceremony! I will marry your entire country and you will all take the name Patterson. It will be very tiring but I'm willing to do it. I await your answer on bended knee while taking many supplements to prepare." I would just say: "Come soon!" And you guys?
