I really didn't know, because I have always had so many interests, that I didn't want to choose just one thing. The only thing that really appealed to me was doing something in the entertainment industry; my great uncle was famous, so I wanted to follow in his footsteps, And I did in various ways, but it didn't work out as well as I had hoped it would.
My first opportunity to perform in front of an audience happened when I was in the Army, and stationed in Germany. Me and one of my friends decided to take a trip to a resort town in Spain called Lloret de Mar; it's a beautiful city on the Mediterranean coast, and it's a major travel destination for a lot of Europeans, it's basically party central. Anyway on our second night there we went into a bar called the Troubadour; we were there about an hour, and for some unknown reason my friend told the waitress that him and I had a nightclub act, then she asked us if we would like to perform, my friend looked at me, and I agreed. And about 15-20 minutes later they invited us onto the stage, so we go on, and out of thin air we start doing an off the cuff improvised acapella song and comedy act, and everyone liked us so much, that the club manager asked us if we could come back the next evening, and perform again. So, since we had so much fun, we said yes. So we go back the next night, and our act was a big hit, and people started calling us Boss and Sunrise, because my friend wore suits, and I drank Tequila Sunrises. We performed almost every night for the next two weeks, and people were coming to the club to see our act, just from word of mouth. It was kind of surreal, we were getting recognized while we were out; people would notice us as Boss and Sunrise, and tell us how much they liked our act, and asked if we were going to perform that night. The club manager offered us a job, and we would have taken it, but the clock struck midnight, the carriage turned into a tank, our dancing shoes turned into combat boots, and we were on our way back to duty😊
