The Great Lakes Pride Band has been invited to perform in a movie
being produced in Royal Oak, MI June 17. We received a phone call
from Daniel Sladek, the director, inviting as many band members who
can participate.
It will be shown on Lifetime, national television.
The movie is "Prayers For Bobby." As many as 500-1000 people in
Royal Oak will be viewing this production as its being made.
Hopefully, we can get as many Band members to join us Tuesday morning
in Royal Oak, Michigan at 9am to 12 noon. What great exposure for
the band, WOW!
Hope to hear from you all soon, if you would like to join us.

Gay band association accepted for inauguration festivities
Obama parade will be first to feature gay groups
From Washington Blade staff reports | Dec 8, 10:48 AM
The Lesbian and Gay Band Association, a musical group with members
from gay marching and symphonic bands across the country, has been
accepted by President-elect Barack Obama to march in the 2009
inaugural parade.
This is the first inaugural parade to feature a gay group. Former
President Clinton allowed gay groups to perform on the sidewalk
during the parade, but not to march. The Lesbian and Gay Band
Association participated in both of Clinton's inaugurations.
"This is the first time that an LGBT group will be represented in a
Presidential Inaugural Parade, truly our chance to make history,"
said the association's inaugural committee to members Saturday.
"We will certainly have the biggest stage possible to remind people
of the importance of coming out and taking part in our national
community," said Cliff Norris, a member of the Atlanta Freedom Band,
which is a part of the LGBA.
Another gay group, In the Parade, has also been petitioning for a
spot in the parade, but no update on its status is available at this
time.

Actually, I'm appalled by many things Obama is doing, including
this!!! I'm removing my membership!
