Carey Thomas J. Carey, a native Philadelphian, holds degrees from Temple University (B.S. in Business Administration) and California State University, Sacramento (M.A. in Anthropology), and also attended the University of Toronto in its Ph.D. Programmer in Anthropology. An Air Force veteran who held a Top Secret/ Crypto clearance, Tom is now a retired Philadelphia area businessman. He has been a Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) State Section Director for Southeastern Pennsylvania from 1986 to 2001, a Special Investigator for the J. Allen Hynek Center for UFO Studies (CUFOS) from 1991 to 2001, and a member of the CUFOS board of directors from 1997 to 2001. Tom began investigating aspects of the Roswell Incident in 1991 for the Roswell investigative team of Kevin Randle and Don Schmitt, and since 1998 has teamed exclusively with Don Schmitt to continue a proactive investigation of the case. Tom has authored or coauthored more than 40 published articles about the Roswell events of 1947, and has contributed to a number of books on the subject as well. He has appeared as a guest on many radio and TV shows throughout the country, including Coast to Coast AM with Art Bell and George Noory, the Shirley MacLaine Show, Fox and Friends, Comcast Network Friends and Larry King Live! (twice) and has contributed to a number of Roswell-related documentaries – on-screen and behind the scenes. Tom was a consultant and interviewee on the highly acclaimed, two-hour SyFy Channel documentary, The Roswell Crash: Startling New Evidence, the Discovery Channel’s Conspiracy Theory, the Travel Channel’s Weird Travels – Roswell, the SyFy Channel’s SyFy Investigates and the History Channel’s, The UFO Hunters. He was also a featured interviewee on the 20th Century Fox, Golden Anniversary, re-release DVD of the 1951 sci-fi movie classic, The Day the Earth Stood Still. His 2007 book, co-authored with Don Schmitt, Witness to Roswell: Unmasking the 60-Year Cover-Up, was the #1 best-selling UFO book in the world in 20072008. Its sequel, Witness to Roswell: Unmasking the Government’s Biggest Cover-Up, published 2009, remains a best seller. Both books are considered to be the best books ever written about the “Roswell Incident.” A motion picture, based upon these books, titled Majic Men, is nearing production, and a TV mini-series is in the works. His new book about the secret history of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base titled Inside the Real Area 51, also co-authored with Don Schmitt and released in August of 2013, is currently the #1 selling UFO book in the world, according to Amazon. Another book about Roswell, also with Don Schmitt, is “in-press” for a 2014 release. A third archaeological “dig” at the Roswell crash site was completed in September 2013 with potentially interesting results. At this point, Tom is 99.99% certain that an extraterrestrial spacecraft with crew crashed just north of the town of Roswell, New Mexico the evening of July 2, 1947. There is 0% chance that it was a “weather balloon,” a “Project Mogul” balloon device or anthropomorphic “dummies” from high-altitude parachute drops made during the 1950s. “Occam’s Razor” demands this conclusion. Tom resides in Huntingdon Valley, Pennsylvania with his wife of 46 years, Doreen, and they have two grown children. James Clarkson James Clarkson is a career investigator with over 30 years’ experience in criminal investigation and in the mysterious world of UFOs. He is a retired police sergeant having worked as a detective sergeant, fatal accident team supervisor and a patrol supervisor. After retiring with 20 years’ service, he became a child abuse detective and now has a decade of service as a fraud investigator for a state agency. He brings these skills and a no-nonsense approach to bear on the mystery of UFOs. Applying the same passion for solving mysteries to the world of High Strangeness, James Clarkson serves as the Washington State Director of MUFON and also as a member of MUFON’s STAR Team. James has had a lifelong interest in UFO history, and he joined MUFON in 1986. He has lectured extensively throughout Washington State, at symposiums across the country and in Paris. He has been a guest on numerous radio shows. During a presentation in 1993 he met June Crain, a key corroborating witness to the reality of the Roswell UFO Crash and other military crash retrievals. She also provided key insights to early days of the ongoing UFO Cover-Up. June worked at Wright Patterson AFB between 1942 and 1952 in top secret laboratories. After becoming friends, in her last days, June Crain chose to reveal her life story to James. Her remarkable history is captured in his book TELL MY STORY – June Crain, the Air Force & UFOs. Now in Roswell, James Clarkson presents the completed study of the Westport UFO Crash Retrieval Event from the SW Coast of Washington in 1979. The elements of this case are valuable for all students of crashed UFOs and covert military response. This investigation was enhanced by the number of highly credible witnesses to the crash and its aftermath. His newest work is titled Westport UFO Crash Retrieval Event – A Case Study. Stanton T. Friedman Stanton T. Friedman, Nuclear PhysicistAuthor-Lecturer, received his BSc. and MSc. Degrees in physics from the University of Chicago in 1955 and 1956.

He became interested in UFOs in 1958, and since 1967 has lectured about them at more than 600 colleges and 100 professional groups in all 50 U.S. states, all 10 Canadian provinces and 18 other countries. He has only had 11 hecklers, of which 2 were drunk. He has published more than 90 UFO papers and has appeared on hundreds of radio and TV programs including on Larry King in 1997, 2007 and twice in 2008, and many documentaries. He has visited 20 document archives. He is the original civilian investigator of the Roswell Incident and co-authored “Crash at Corona: The Definitive Study of the Roswell Incident”. TOP SECRET/MAJIC his controversial book about the Majestic 12 group, established in 1947 to deal with alien technology, was published in 1996 and went through 6 printings. An expanded new edition was published in 2005. Stan was presented with a Lifetime UFO Achievement Award in Leeds, England, in 2002, by UFO Magazine of the UK. He is coauthor with Kathleen Marden (Betty Hill’s niece) of a book in 2007: “Captured! TheBetty and Barney Hill UFO Experience”. The City of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada, declared August 27, 2007, Stanton Friedman Day. His book “Flying Saucers and Science” was published in June, 2008, and is in its 4th printing. His newest book “Science Was Wrong: Startling Truths about Cures, Theories, and Inventions ‘They’ Declared Impossible” with Kathleen Marden, was published in June, 2010. On July 2, 2010, he was inducted into the Roswell, New Mexico, UFO Hall of Fame for his long term investigative efforts on that important case. Both TOP SECRET/MAJIC and “Captured! The Betty and Barney Hill UFO Experience” have been optioned for movies by Stellar Productions of Hollywood. He has provided written testimony to Congressional Hearings, appeared twice at the UN, and been a pioneer in many aspects of ufology including Roswell, Majestic 12, The Betty Hill-Marjorie Fish star map work, analysis of the Delphos, Kansas, physical trace case, crashed saucers, flying saucer technology, and challenges to the S.E.T.I. (Silly Effort To Investigate) cultists. He has spoken at more MUFON Symposia than anyone else. Stanton T.

In 2004 she trusted the wrong dentist and was poisoned severely by mercury fillings. For years she was seeking a healing miracle, and when everything failed she headed to the UK Crop Circles. Laying in Crop Circles day after day she developed (what appeared to be) a telepathic communication with the Circlemakers. After an OBE (out-of-body-experience) in an English Crop Circle in 2007 she became fully fearless in the fields! Climbing up the hillsides with her cameras late at night she filmed Balls of Light in great detail! Shooting the Crop Circles from small airplanes in wind and rain, with no door on her side and barely a seat belt was totally over the top! Patty Greer journeyed to the epicenter of the Crop Circle phenomenon (Wiltshire England) in 2006, 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2011. Finding herself in the front line of Crop Circle researchers, she created six highly informative films in record time. With no makeup or preparation, no storyboard or script, no BS and no other researcher’s data, the movies have advanced Crop Circle research & understanding tremendously to this day. Documenting her first hand experiences and interviewing other Croppies, druids and researchers in the fields, Greer offers stunning cinematography and authentic Crop Circle images spanning the last 30 years. Unfortunately her movies were suppressed by old paradigm distributors for years, but that didn’t stopped her from moving forward. She received a standing ovation for her presentation at the 2014 International UFO Congress Convention and is heading back to the Crop Circles with an international film crew to film again in 2014. So let’s delve into the Crop Circle phenomenon with a film maker who has visited more than 100 Crop Circles personally. With no previous training or experience in film making whatsoever, she zoned in on the UK Crop Circles and interacted with the ‘Balls of Light’ that have been seen in and around the UK Crop Circles for decades! Greer takes the study into a new realm of possibilities with daunting new footage and clips from her documentaries as potential evidence that (ET) Balls of Light may indeed be involved in the creation of (many) Crop Circles! Greer believes the Crop Circles are an intentional manifestation of ET communication for humanity. Direct messages from parallel realities perhaps, in a language that we all understand: ART. Through binary codes, sacred geometry and precise artistic pictograms, many Crop Circle messages have been decoded and deciphered, offering profound insight about the evolution of our planet and our species. Although the subject has been conveniently swept under the rug, Crop Circles have continued appearing around the world for centuries. As an example, 2012 was a typical year for the Circlemakers, with 69 new Crop Circles in England alone. 56 more were documented in: Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, Czech Republic, Iran, Slovakia, France, The Netherlands, Latvia, Poland, Macedonia, Germany, Switzerland, Norway, Belgium, USA, Denmark and Australia. Did we hear about them in the news? Probably not! Patty Greer has won 6 prestigious film awards so far including 3 EBE Awards at the International UFO Congress Convention. If you’re a believer be prepared to be captivated. If you’re a skeptic be prepared to be converted! Ben Hansen Ben Hansen is the lead host and investigator of the SyFy channel’s Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files.

The six person team takes on cases of ghosts, UFOs, Bigfoot, chupacabras, mermaids, and other unusual occurrences. Hansen graduated from the University of Utah and went to work investigating child physical abuse and sex crimes at the state level for several years before moving on to work for the FBI. He eventually landed in Hollywood, where he helped develop what would later become at hit paranormal show, Fact or Faked.

Larry Holcombe Larry Holcombe’s introduction into the world of Ufology came in the late 1950’s after reading two of Major Donald Keyhoe’s books; Flying Saucers are Real and Flying Saucers from Outer Space. A year later, after watching Keyhoe debate an Air Force officer on the old Armstrong Circle Theater, and seeing Keyhoe being censored when he deviated from the prepared script the Air Force forced on the show’s producers, Larry was convinced the Air Force was covering up knowledge of flying saucers, later to be changed UFO’s. Those events started a fifty plus year avocation into the study and research of the UFO phenomenon. In 2006 he took early retirement and started his first novel, The Great River Disclosure, a thriller based on the government cover-up of an extraterrestrial presence visiting earth. His second novel in the Disclosure Trilogy, Satan’s Angel, was released this past fall in eBook format. In researching background for the novels he became intrigued by a 1970’s NBC-TV documentary, UFOS: Past, Present & Future. The documentary endorsed the theory that some UFO’s were extraterrestrial and astonishingly the documentary seemed to have the support of the government. Larry was able to locate the writer/co-producer of the documentary, Bob Emenegger, and Emenegger provided him with some remarkable background information on the making of the documentary that involved the Nixon Administration. From this background the idea of a work of non-fiction began to shape built around the documentary, the Nixon Administration, and the involvement of all modern presidents in the UFO phenomenon. A detailed book proposal was developed and in the fall of 2012 the rights to “The History of Modern Presidents and the UFO Enigma was purchased by St. Martin’s Press. Since the first of the year Larry has been traveling to research the book with a release date expected in early 2014. He has done a number of radio interviews and most recently with Pat Schouten host of The Fringe Radio Show on KTKK AM630, Salt Lake City. He continues to believe that the Roswell Incident was the defining event that has shaped the governments handling of this historical phenomenon. His lectures this year will include “Six indisputable facts that the Roswell Incident was an extraterrestrial event” and his soon to be released book, “The History of Modern Presidents and the UFO Enigma”. Anyone with information on the subject or interest in Larry’s work can contact him at larryholcombe1@gmail.com or visit his web site at www.larryholcombe.com.

Sharon King Sharon King has been an early childhood Teacher, Program Coordinator & a Director in child care centers for over 26 years. She has always liked doing arts and crafts and working with children. Over the years she has made many fun activities to share with children. Her book Junior Alien Zone is a fun and interesting arts and crafts, and activity book about Aliens which can be used in many different ways. Sharon never thought she would write a children book and then it happened. In the summer of 2004, she and her husband took their niece and family on vacation to Roswell, NM. While they were there, they learned about the UFO Festival held every July. Sharon had so many ideas, she started to write them all down and the rest is history…a book was born. Thirty three days after Junior Alien Zone was published, she had her first book signing. It took place at the Roswalien Experience 2009 Festival in the International UFO Museum & Research Center in Roswell, New Mexico. The book received a lot of attention and positive exposure. Sharon’s new book titled “Oops Was Bullied?” tells the tale of two beings – a wee extraterrestrial named Oops and a young Earth girl – who become friends when Oops crashes to Earth. They couldn’t be more different: different languages, different points of view, different backgrounds, all packed into two very different little bodies. In fact, it’s those differences that lead to a harsh reality for tiny Oops, who is bullied because he’s not like others. Written for children from preschool age through grade five, the juvenile fiction, “Oops Was Bullied?” is a fun and easy read that teaches children valuable lessons about the consequences of bullying through the eyes of her vibrant and lovable characters. Sharon lives in Amarillo, Texas, with her husband of 43 years, Charles. They have three adult children, four grandchildren, one great-grandchild, and two dogs.

David Marler David Marler has had a lifelong interest in the subject of UFOs. He joined The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) in 1990 as a Field Investigator Trainee. Since then, he has served as Field Investigator, State Section Director, as well as Illinois State Director. David is currently an independent UFO researcher. During his tenure with MUFON, he had conducted numerous investigations into alleged UFO sightings and related experiences. He has discussed the subject of UFOs on numerous radio and television news programs. He has also lectured on the subject to various school and adult audiences over the years.

Recent evidence of his historical research is his newly-published book, Triangular UFOs: An Estimate of the Situation. Here, he has provided a comprehensive analysis of triangular UFOs. He has collected, collated, and analyzed hundreds of reports. In the process, he has created a detailed profile of these objects and written a rich narrative of their history. He tackles the arguments made by skeptics that dismiss these triangular UFO reports outright. He also addresses the claims of so-called insiders who claim these objects are a creation of the U.S. military. David strives to have an open mind regarding the UFO phenomenon. However, he also acknowledges the need for a skeptical approach when examining each individual UFO report. Despite the large percentage of misidentifications and hoaxes in the UFO data, David recognizes what appears to be a core phenomenon beneath it all. David received his Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville (SIUE). He received his Certification in Hypnotherapy from Mottin and Johnson Institute of Hypnosis in St. Louis, Missouri.

Thomas Reed Thomas Reed, born February 12, 1960, is the son of Nancy and Dr. Howard Reed. Reed is best known for his edgy style of photography and being the founder and owner of the original “Miami Models”, (US Patent and Trademark Office Reg.No. 3,834,78). Florida based Miami Models, was managed by Thomas Reed, and the firm respected for its European Print Fashion Board. Miami Models, under the direction of Thomas Reed, booked clients such as Polo Black Label, L’Oreal, Matrix, Vogue Bambini, Nike Athletic, US Polo, Saks Fifth Avenue, The Gap, Guess, Burdines-Macys, Chadwicks, Lands End, Parisian, Jessica of London, Yonkers, Weebok, MTV, Kohls, Goodys, Dilliards, FCA Paris, France and Tommy Hilfiger. From 1983 through 2005, Reed was shooting editorials and model composite cards for agencies such as Michelle Pommier, Ford, Willomina, Greene Agency, Chic, AGE, Irene Marie, Boca Talent, World of Kids, Famous Faces. Reed’s years in South Florida’s fashion industry showcased his talents as an award-winning fashion and model photographer. Reed’s edgy and raw editorial style captured attention, winning the newcomer First Place in South Florida Fashion Photography Contests twice in just four years. This would launch his company, Miami Models. EARLY LIFE: Reed was born in New York and is the son of Nancy (Burrows) Reed (Powers Model, FM radio personality for WKZE, owner of Village on the Green restaurant in Sheffield, MA, who also bred and trained horses). His step-father, Dr. Howard Reed (Attorney and Connecticut politician), would legally adopt Reed. From 1960 through 1961, Reed lived in the home of William Roosevelt, the grandson of President Roosevelt, in Cherry Hills, Colorado. His mother, Nancy and grandmother (Marian Burrows) were employed by the family with residence on property. By 1963, Reed would relocate to a farm house at 1554 Boardman Street, Sheffield, Massachusetts, owned by his mother, Nancy. Reed lived there until he was 9 years old. Thom’s elementary school, Sheffield Center School was located in the heart of Sheffield, across the street from where Nancy owned her restaurant “Village on the Green” at 113 Main Street, Sheffield, Mass. It was commonplace for Reed to accompany his mother to open the restaurant and on a full stomach, ride his bicycle to and from school. In 2013, the Reed’s early history would be the subject and premiere of Discovery Channel’s Alien Mysteries new series. Reed has appeared on the Fox Morning Show, Travel Channel’s Paranormal Paparazzi, and Canada Morning AM (among others), due to extraordinary circumstances involving his family. These events have now gained international recognition involving the family’s UFO case. The 2009 encounter produced radiation and magnetic anomalies per the official reports from law enforcement. Law enforcement requested Thomas Reed take a polygraph test August 4, 2010 at the Advanced Polygraph Institute in Knoxville, TN, which he passed with a 99.1%, no deception indicated. The Reed case assisted in their personal attorney’s efforts, (Robert Bletchman) by adding credible and corroborated testimony, which was presented by Robert at the United Nations symposium on October 2, 1992. The objective was to introduce substantiated cases to motivate the U.N. to reconsider 33/426. (33/426 references an establishment of an agency or a dept. of the U. N. for undertaking, coordinating and disseminating the results of research into unidentified flying objects.) This came 10 days before NASA began SETI’s Microwave Observing Project (MOP/HRMS). The Reed case is one of only a few, to be mentioned at the United Nations. In March of 2013, News Anchor Jacqueline Milczarek of CTV News Express Canada ran a news story on the Reed case prior to the launch of Discovery Channel’s Alien Mysteries. Jacqueline discusses the testimony and evidence in the case that was detected by law enforcement, to include radiation and magnetic fields and the fact that the case went before the United Nations on October 2, 1992.

From ages 4 to 17, he experienced numerous conscious contacts with a malignant alien presence. Determined to transform his life role from the “hunted” to the “hunter,” he prepared himself mentally, physically, and spiritually to become a warrior for the cause of the alien abductee. At the heart of Sims’ work is a proactive search for physical evidence and its forensic analysis. A private investigator and former MP, he treats abduction cases like crime scenes. By the early 1980s, he’d begun assembling his groundbreaking collection of alleged alien implants; in 1995, he organized the first public extractions and subsequent analysis of more alleged alien artifacts. Other landmark cases include the 1992 Double Mass Abduction, and his discovery of sub-dermal alien fluorescence. Trace evidence such as this are currently undergoing DNA testing. Sims’ scientific and academic “Dream Team” of consultants includes 2 Cardio Vascular Surgeons, a Brain Surgeon, 4 Md.’s, and a criminal forensic scientist from a major university and an ultra-tech specialist, currently conducting a 2-year study on Sims’ implant samples. This work is a culmination of 24 surgeries to date from the 1980′s, to the latest one, in Flint, Michigan, last month. Sims’ hundreds of case files give him a unique view of the relationship between alien and prey, and he is a sought-after consultant to mental health professionals worldwide. His numerous hypnotherapy certifications include one in hypnotic anesthesiology. Sims is also a compassionate and skilled therapist with many certifications, including Master Hypnotherapist and Certified Medical Hypnotic Therapist. He has helped hundreds of alien experiencers all over the world come to terms with what they’ve witnessed. A frequent media guest, he is currently co-starring in the Discovery network TV series, “Uncovering Aliens.” Website:AlienHunter.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DerrelSimsTheAlienHunter Twitter: @alienhunter007 Sims is a popular media guest and draws a crowd all over the globe. He’s authored two books, “Alien Hunter: The Evidence in Light” and “Alien Hunter: Evidence and Truth about Alien Implants”. Yvonne Smith Yvonne Smith began life normally enough: was mascot for her high school football team and that same year was asked to be a participant on the notional t.v. “Dating Game’ program. She moved on to be in charge of the jury room for the busiest courthouse in the United States in Los Angeles…during which time she attended a lecture by hypnotherapist pioneer Budd Hopkins. She then became hooked by his presentation in learning that hypnotherapy was such a useful tool in helping people suffering from PTSD. Smith therefore began researching the UFO phenomenon in the late 1980s. After 2 years of studies and 1000 hours of internship a California Hypnosis Motivation Institute, the only accredited hypnosis college in the United States, she received her hypnotherapy certification in 1990. Specializing in cases of post-traumatic stress disorder, she uses her hypnotherapy skills to assist such victims to work through their anxiety, with many of her subjects referred to her by physicians and psychiatrists who believe Smith’s expertise can benefit their patients. In fact, many such patients are themselves doctors, university professors, military, engineers, lawyers, domestic and foreign pilots other professionals and many non-professionals, sometimes flying from other countries to meet with Smith in Los Angeles. In UFO circles, whenever there is a reported sighting, UFO investigators emphasize and evaluate whether the experiencers description supports, or not, the reality of a UFO contact. However, the emphasis of recognized regressive hypnotherapy expert Yvonne Smith concerns the too frequently ignored emotional trauma on the experiencer of their encounter. Because Smith (who is internationally known in UFO circles as simply “hypnotherapist Yvonne”) observed that many of the PTSD cases being referred to her involved subjects describing similar patterns of UFO abduction encounters, she founded Close Encounters Resource Organization [CERO] as a monthly-meeting support group for such individuals in 1992. She was also on the board of the Organization for Paranormal Understanding and Support (OPUS) which furthers support for such subjects. As the foremost female hypnotherapist in this field, in the 1990s Yvonne traveled on a lecture tour with hypnotherapy colleagues the late Dr. John Mack of Harvard and pioneer Budd Hopkins, and also David Jacobs, PhD. of Temple University. Yvonne is the author of CHOSEN: Recollections of UFO Abductions Through Hypnotherapy, which exposes, with dramatic regressive hypnotherapy transcripts, the hidden memory trauma reality suffered by abductees. Budd Hopkins and Yvonne are the subjects of the DVD, Alien Hybrids & Clinical Hypnotherapy, which is volume 1 from the Secrets of the Underground series. For more information about CHOSEN, visit www.YSmith.com ABOUT “CHOSEN: Recollections of UFO Abductions Through Hypnotherapy” In CHOSEN Yvonne Smith, a certified hypnotherapist specializing in the use of hypnotherapy to assist those who suffer post-traumatic stress as a result of “close encounters” reveals the trauma of such individual’s experiences. Such abductees’ experiences are more realistically described in CHOSEN than in previous publications due to many dramatic, unedited transcripts of subjects describing their trauma during their hypnotherapy. In UFO circles, whenever there is a reported “sighting” UFO investigators emphasize and evaluate whether the experiencer’s description supports, or not, the reality of a UFO contact. However, the emphasis of recognized regressive hypnotherapy expert Yvonne Smith concerns the too frequently ignored trauma on the experiencer of their encounter. Different focuses: Typical UFO books about UFO sightings limit their attention to whether an event supports a UFO encounter. However, CHOSEN focuses on the emotional trauma caused to the experiencer .too frequently ignored by investigators. CHOSEN… focuses uniquely on the effect the encounter has on the experiencer. CHOSEN…uniquely contains dozens of startlingly candid and unedited transcripts of subjects’ recollections of alien abductions, unblocked from hidden memory during regressive hypnotherapy sessions. CHOSEN…reveals Yvonne Smith’s skill as a post-traumatic stress hypnotherapy specialist by probing deeply into her subjects’ subconscious to release them from their trauma. CHOSEN… provides the reader with information to consider, evaluate and decide. Autographed copies of CHOSEN may be ordered at www.Ysmith.com Travis Walton Travis Walton is the subject of the Paramount Studios movie, Fire in the Sky, based on his book of the same name. On November 5, 1975 a group of loggers in the mountains of northeastern Arizona observed a strange, unusually bright light in the sky. One of the men, Travis Walton, recklessly left the safety of their truck to take a closer look. Suddenly as he walked toward the light, Walton was blasted back by a bolt of mysterious energy. His companions fled in fear. When they reported an encounter with a UFO – something they would have considered impossible if they had not witnessed it themselves – the men were suspected of murder. For five days authorities mounted a massive manhunt in search of Walton – or his body. Then Walton reappeared, disoriented and initially unable to tell the whole story of his terrifying encounter. In Fire in the Sky, Walton relates in his own words the best documented account of alien abduction yet recorded, the story of his harrowing ordeal at the hands of silent captors, his return to a disbelieving world of hostile interrogators, exploitative press, and self-styled debunkers. Travis recounts the struggle to get a fair hearing, and confronts his detractors with a stinging rebuttal. Entertainment Retro Fit A local 5-piece, classic rock band doing covers and originals Tesoro Band No bio available Amy LaVere Amy LaVere was born in Louisiana and moved around as a GM brat (“Dad moved around to open factories”), and the family eventually settled near Detroit, at least everyone but her father, who continued to travel for work. The family structure eventually gave way. She and her sister rebelled, and one of the ways Amy did so was by joining a band at age 14. Rebellion is still a potent theme for her, and she continues to defy and test love’s constraints, adding to the body count of the last album (“Killing Him”) with “Red Banks,” a sly turn on the blues/country yarn where the girl usually ends up getting it in the end. In “Damn Love Song,” she finally writes the love song that her lover has longed for, but it’s practically spit at him as she is walking out the door. “You Can’t Keep Me” is a insolent pop song that warns that she won’t be held captive in her relationship as a building cacophony of horns and Theremin joyously celebrate her imminent freedom. Homegrown Boyz An up coming band that is well known around the southwest for performing live, and playing a wide range of variety music.
