“Rock of Ages” premiere
Michael Urie

Patrick Wilson
Zac Efron was a big, fat no-show at the premiere of the “Rock of Ages” on Broadway April 7, 2009. I’m not going to even hide that I was disappointed. So I present you here with my favorites from the shoot. I’m going to have to get my hands on the box set of “Ugly Betty” as Michael Urie might be one of my all-time favorite red carpet photo subjects. It was also pretty cool to see chef Rocco Dispirito as I had seen his reality show “The Restaurant” and thought how cool New York looked when I was living in Chicago. And now here he was making eye contact with my camera. “30 Rock’s” Jane Krakowski was super cute and Twisted Sister lead singer Dee Snyder did not disappoint with his presentation of devil horns and rocker face. Oh ya, James Franco was supposed to be there, too. I wonder if he and Zac decided to hang out together instead of attending! And doesn’t Patrick Wilson from “Watchmen” look exactly like Paul Newman?

The bonus photo below is of my friend Jim Glaub of Art Meets Commerce. Jim was on hand to do some of the red carpet video interviews for his company that did a lot of the advertising development and publicity for the production.
