Happy 1 Year Anniversary Kids From fame Media


I can't believe that it's been a whole year since I first started this site, my where does the time go. I started things pretty much on the spur of the moment when I worked out it wasn't too difficult to set up a site, so I never imagined that it would grow into pretty much daily posts.
For me it means that there is a little bit of Fame in virtually every day of my life in the last year so that’s always a good thing. Some days I sit here virtually all day converting files, downloading, uploading or simply searching the Internet for new Fame things. Some times it feels like a lot of work but at the same time I enjoy it and the most rewarding thing has been the emails and messages that I've received and the new friends I've made. People have been so complimentary to me and grateful that some of this material has been made available. One person wrote:

"..coming across all of the excellent tunes from the TV seasons on your site, as well as from the albums put out, is like finding hidden treasure."

I've also been surprised by the generosity of people who have sent me things, some of which I'd never seen or heard before to share on my site. So that has been a great bonus for me too. So thank you for making this first year a big success and here's to the next 12 months.

Best Wishes,

Mark x.

  3. Oh, and ps -
    From where is that photo that you have posted here (on the "1 Year Anniversary" entry). I am unaware of any concert that featured Debbie Allen, Cynthia Gibb and Nia Peeples together. When did they perform in concert together? I am VERY curious!

  4. Thanks guys.

    To be honest I don't know much about the concert from which the picture comes. Except I found quite a few pictures from Life magazine. The concert seems to come between filming seasons 4 and 5 and features: Debbie, Cynthia, Nia, Carlo Gene, Jesse, the fame dancers and the Waters.

    It appears to be in an outside location as there are tall buildings around them. I don't think the concert was recorded and shown on TV sadly.

    There is a banner across the stage which says Fame in concert for emergency Ethiopian airlift. Operation Calafornia. In one picture Debbie is holding a certificate which states City of Los Angeles Fame Day, Operation California.

    There are pictures of the whole group and Carol and Albert were also at the concert.

    Anyway who knows anymore like what the cast performed or has any footage of the performances please contact me,

    Thanks Mark.
