Thanks for that article Bill. Interesting.

I noted the mention that some films are now being produced in the  
Eastern USA. Three are currently being shot locally in Pennsylvania.  
"Marley and Me" (about a dog) has some scenes from West Chester PA. A  
day or so ago they shot a winter scene, fake snow and all, on Gay  
Street. Very convincing. It shows the intersection  where Barbone  
Street will be performing on June 5th with Jennifer Anniston in a  
wedding dress running through the "snow".

Cheers,
Steve Barbone
