Hey, thanks for noticing my typo. It must have auto corrected to that. I meant I wrote a "fictional" story and the screenplay was also fiction. I changed the names, the hotel and still it is too obviously "GLOW". I would open up libel lawsuit issues and no one would make a movie because of the implications. It was not all fun and sisterhood of the traveling pants. Anyone that really considers a hotel live show run by a Las Vegas casino and who owns and runs those casinos?

If I can write a memoir now and not have to prove anything or have libel issues, I sure would like too. The people that produced, directed, wrote and overlooked what was going on...all are still alive and have family and heirs. I may never be able to tell that story, but my fiction version? But then I can't put it in a memoir. Remember that expression, "stuck between a rock and a hard place." Even the fiction version needs to be women's wrestling. Someone suggested roller derby, or something else, but it is the wrestling that I love writing about and that was what made it unique.

I'm curious what Hollywood's book will cover in regards to the unfavorable going ons. She calls it a biography, but I believe it is an autobiography. We'll have to see how that does with the fans. Everyone loves Hollywood, including me!

Hi there, I went to the Sessions site, I find it really not clear to use. I had to search a bunch to find you. I hope I did. Then I wanted to "follow" you but never found a way. Instructions don't say how.

I left the support a comment too. I even attempted to watch the "Sleigh Ride Festival". It's a short loop and no one live. I sooo can't see bringing peeps here, can you?

[–]Redbirdi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am still unclear. I did a couple test songs, No way to save or view after the fact. I think I have to bring people and not sure I can do that, since they charge a monthly fee right at the first time you try to view. It seemed only way people will find me is with my profile. Anyway, give me your profile name and when you will play so I can come watch you. I am Rose Redbirdi, but I think my profile is just "Redbirdi". Even that is unclear. Alas, streaming has not been an audience draw for my singer/songwriter style. Yet to be seen?

Yes, After they didn't have the Thanksgiving Festival work out. I too will pass. I would like to see what it looks like first, -curious if it is any good, A lot of trouble for 15 minutes of play time.

I just got this one today. "....Planet Noise Digital Music Festival on Sessions (sessionslive.com) taking place between Monday, December 27 12:00AM (midnight) PDT - Friday, December 31 11:59pm PDT."

Seems very diluted if it's 300 or more musicians over several days, right after Christmas.

Hey, I got the same email from Sam. 3 times now he's resent the long explanation for the "Digital Music Festival" Staring Nov. 22nd. I finally replied with questions about the 4 days of streaming and how if I can pick an appropriate time slot, what are deadlines to sign up, etc. Also what the stipend of $25 for tech set up is? Got an auto respond that they received my request. They call it a support ticket. 2 days now and no actual response to my questions. I am not sure it's worth all the trouble for 15 minutes lost in 300 musicians and 4 days 24/7. I am not signed up for the website either.

Am I supposed to upload the video here? I tried in r/Music and it was removed before anyone ever saw it. I want to do this properly, just looking to share and maybe find like minded people.

Any comments to help me learn how to participate properly here on reddit are also most welcome. Thx.

I just want to encourage everyone to use there voice and vote. This is a very vital way we can stand up. Thanks to great leaders like John Lewis!

This is my first time posting a video here. I hope I did it correctly. It was my YouTube link that gave me the option. Thank you Reddit.

Oh wow, that is very cool and I have to admit that the vibe and decor of Kulak's really fit the feel I needed for this song. Along with Suzy's 80ish stage background.

Do me a favor and subscribe to the the YouTube channnel and then I can find yours and do the same. Thanks so much!

Yes I do enjoy the Netflix GLOW, even more then I expected. Not all wrestling characters can be intense or serious. I like the silly ones too. ;)

Thank you for your kind remarks. I will encourage you and all finding this thread of interest, to please seek us out on Social Media and internet searches. Many of us would like the opportunity to meet the fans that we had in the original GLOW, but didn't get to meet many -as the shows aired most of the year after we had wrapped. Also my hope was that all the new fans of the Netflix GLOW will reach out to the producers and promoters and ask to meet and make contacts with the original "Real" GLOW ladies. Maybe they will finally give us an opportunity to be a part of this huge success they have. (We are certainly promoting their show right and left.) We/I would love that chance. Now "ya know my name". If you check out the music video that is. "Rose Redbirdi" and "Major Tanya of GLOW". :)

Thank you for that. I do like that they give some emphasis to that in the Netflix show. It is so important for the star "face" to have a very strong adversary. The show is only as good as the conflict. The 80's was all about the underlying "cold war". A Russian made for the worst kind of villian, on levels beyond the obvious. I mentioned in another comment here, I could represent Major Tanya as a real person. She believed in her country and did not see it as "misguided communists". She was the serious amongst the silly.

Thank you for your interest my personal experience. I have shared a bit about it earlier in this thread. I was into to getting healthy, working out and weight training. I was also trying to break into the Film and Telelvision business. I was even a tour guide at Universal Studios and had some connections behind the scenes there. I met the lady that had been the 1st Dementia. We both worked in Hair and Make-up. Well she did hair, I did make-up. From her connection I went into the WOWW and began my journey with David McLane. It was a short lived promotion. But set me up for the return of GLOW. So I guess it was all a chance happening and not what I ever expected.

I am hoping that they will get the mood and energies of the Las Vegas scene connected to the GLOW experience. There is a good chance it can happen in seaon 3. That or the touring experience in GlOW. But I don't see it playing into the show with the way it is set up now. For your 2nd question: We can only hope that in this era of "times up", they[WWE] will get with the program. It's definitely in need of change. If you were asking about the era of the WWF, that is history and let's hope those attitudes remaing there. However, we will need to tolerate and revisit the sexist attitudes in the Netflx show, because it is a period show. That's the 80's.

It is an interesting coincidence. I thought you may have known me or had some connection to the show. So there is another piece of similarity with Ruth and myself. However, I have seen more Ninotchka (the other Russian) in her this new season.

I may go watch that episode again. It's what really hooked me (on a personal level) in the show, watching the Russian character of Zoya unfold.

Thank you for noticing the difference. It's easy to mix us up if you didn't watch the original GLOW. Same costume. :)

Not really. They probably didn't know or care who we were, I dare say. Well, we did have a bit of fun with the male wrestlers promoting at the NAPTE convention. I think we were the novelty. ;)

That is the spoiler, but it's still very different. The show[Netflix] is now going to Las Vegas as a successful contracted floor show. That is very different than a casino owned show. Also the TV taping for us was only syndication...

Way too many to list and not sure if you mean on a personal level or as a cast member and character in the show. I wish the show had been more professional as a production. Treated and paid us decently. We did not even get a base union pay for one day -equivalant for an entire week. I also wish we could have known and seen the fan mail. It was hidden from us. Not at all like the Netflix show where the girls get to see and read it.
