John with Kimberly?

2002

Location: San Diego, CA

Marital Status: married

Children: as of 2002 - daughter age 25, son age 22, plus current step-son age 16

Have you or would you let your kids see Rocky: yes, in fact I took my daughter to a Halloween performance when she was 9

What I'm doing these days: Technical Director for a video production company, also running a photography business and doing way too much traveling lately for work.

People from Rocky I've kept in touch with: Ron Donofero, I've had contact with Raquel Coupas when she was dancing at the Star and Garter, and also Storm Bourbon a bit. I performed the handfasting for Lori Johnson.

Why I first went to Rocky: Was a member of a BBS called Hop>Scotch, and we had a Rocky night at the Ken. From that point, I was totally hooked.

How I started performing: Was the natural thing to do. Got pulled in for a performance of Eddie, and kept going from there. Only did Riff twice though, and both times my cars broke down, so quit that as it was a role I couldn't afford to keep doing.

Food I ordered after the show: usually soup, coffee, and some kind of dinner

I last performed: It would have been at The Fiesta Twin and I honestly don't remember the year.

Before the reunion, I last saw Rocky: In 1997, some friends with a large screen TV had a Rocky party at their house and supplied toilet paper, hot dogs, rice, cards, and toast. It was a good night.

Did I buy the Rocky DVD? no - every time I go to buy one, they never have it in stock. Have VHS and Beta though.

My favorite Rocky memories: Finding out after the floorshow that when the lights hit my black bikini, it went transparent, then having Storm start chanting, "Hawko dresses to the left, doo dah, doo dah."
