Do The Lights Still Work In Here?

Is anyone out there? Anyone at all?

There is a lot of cobwebs and dust to clean up around here, but something kicked the furnace this morning.

Could something be brewing?

Only time will tell.

Foo 79

Foo Second Life?

We've recieved reports that Dan Gorgone has been spotted in Second Life along side C.C. Chapman.

Could this be where the long lost wandering cohorts have been spending their time? Could there be something going on in Second Life involving Random Foo Pictures? Could the rumors be true about the legendary lost Madsumo acoustic show coming to light?

Your guess is as good as ours.

10 YEARS

10 years ago this morning Dan and C.C. were waking up after a fun filled night of filming and viewing. Neither thought that we'd be here today writing this message. That is for damn sure.

Yes, Foo has been quiet lately but that is due to so many changings in life. The biggest which would be Dan's new son Jack, who appropriately enough is being Christened today so we will be together.

There is so much activity behind the scenes right now on so many different ideas, directions and possibilities. You have not heard the last of Random Foo. That is for damn sure.

So raise a frosty beverage of choice today and help us celebrate 10 Years of Foo!

The Newest Foo

We are very happy to announce the newest member of the Foo family. Little Jack Ausby Culver Gorgone was born on January 18th to Dan and Kerry and everyone is doing great.

Congrats!!

Will You Be There?

The Kerri Oke hype machine hits overdrive! From today's Boston Metro:

Foo Summer Happenings

The number of movie productions has decreased, but that doesn't mean the Foo gang isn't busy. In fact, all of its main members are hard at work on important new projects:

C.C. Chapman has been hard at work producing the wildly-successful indie music podcast, Accident Hash. He's been doing such a great job that this week you'll also be able to hear him on Sirius Satellite Radio guest hosting Adam Curry's Podshow!

Along with other indie acting gigs, Dan Gorgone is set to star in Jodom Pictures' next production, Going to Great Lengths. But the most important "production" he's working on is the one with wife Kerry: their first baby! Check out their Baby Time podcast for more info!

Speaking of first babies, Frank Parker and his wife Kat will be welcoming their own into the world this winter!

Steve Sherrick has formed a great new partnership with Mike Amato at Jodom Pictures to produce new movies. And of course, the omnipresent Joe Vaccariello will be lending a hand on some of those new productions, such as The Burn Book.

As for Chuck South, his big night comes on August 15th when Kerri Oke gets a huge premiere in Boston!

So you can see, it's been a very busy summer for everyone!

Kerri Oke Premiere in August

As the summer nears, Foo already has one big event scheduled: the premiere of Kerri Oke! Director/star Chuck South has begun preparations for showing off his epic drama/comedy. Make sure to save this date: Monday, August 15th!

Have You Been Kiss-ed?

The Arlington Friends of the Drama production of Kiss of the Spider Woman premiered last weekend to rave reviews!

Foo's own Dan Gorgone co-stars in the production as the villainous Warden. If you haven't seen the show yet, be sure to catch him on stage during the next two weekends (April 15-17 and April 22-24). Tickets are still available and you can get them online!

Nine Years Later...

Today marks the nine-year anniversary of Random Foo's first production! Time flies when you're having fun... Best wishes to the whole Foo Crew!

Oh, We're Halfway There, Livin' on a Prayer

A wise man from New Jersey once said "it doesn't make a difference if we make it or not," but we know one production that will make it. Editing is finally underway on the Chuck South comedy Kerri Oke. Editor Dan Gorgone reports that not only is a rough cut well underway, but we've got screenshots too!

Read up on the progress on the Kerri Oke page!

Update: Check out the one-minute Kerri Oke teaser!

Star of Stage and Screen?

Random Foo's Dan Gorgone has landed a role in a new local production, but this one will take him back to a place he hasn't been to in eight years: the stage!

The Foo co-founder will play the villainous Warden, main antagonist of the two heroic leads. The show opens on April 8th; visit the AFD website for more info.
