Lightening Entertainment Attends NFL DRAFT 2013 At Radio City Music Hall

Music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGZeAehxvVA.mp3
New York, NY

NFL Draft has been a three day extravaganza at
Radio City Music Hall with fans and many special guests attending to the three
day event from Thursday, April 25 to Saturday, April 27 which included many
celebrities and NFL players.

Viewership this year of Thursday night’s
round one, according to the NFL, averaged 7.7 million viewers vs. 6.3 million in
2009, the year before the draft switched to prime time.

As with almost
everything related to the NFL, the draft has become bigger than maybe ever
before.

Lightening Entertainment Geena Jinev Anac & Natasha Anac
were on board for the third day of the draft along with ESPN News, NFL Network
& Prime Time TV

On the inside of Radio City Music Hall, Roger Goodell
the Commissioner of the National Football League (NFL) was at the podium,
announcing.

“After a trade with the Cleveland Browns, with the sixth pick
in the 2014 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks select Bo Callahan, quarterback,
Wisconsin,” Goodell said into the microphone.

Goodell then repeated the
announcement twice more, as he and the crew for the movie ‘Draft Day’ shot
scenes for the film. All weekend, cameras shot scenes for Ivan Reitman’s
upcoming feature. The film features Kevin Costner as the general manager of the
Cleveland Browns tasked with turning the team around. Arian Foster also has a
role in the film.

The movie was just part of the entertainment inside.
Once fans entered the building and the picks began to fly off the board, the NFL
took every measure to appease the fans and guests via gourmet food and
refreshements at the VIP section.

League representatives were throwing
merchandise into the crowd to fire up the excited fans.

Also South
Carolina tight end prospect Justice Cunningham, who became the 254th overall and
final pick on Saturday and earned the dubious title of Mr. Irrelevant in the
process. It’s the second consecutive year for the Indianapolis Colts to make the
selection, after taking Northern Illinois quarterback Chandler Harnish in
’12.

Cunningham ended a great weekend for former Gamecocks, as he was the
seventh player taken from Steve Spurrier’s program, by seven teams, over seven
rounds. In order, they were safety D.J. Swearinger (Texans), wide receiver Ace
Sanders (Jaguars), running back Marcus Lattimore (49ers), defensive end Devin
Taylor (Lions), outside linebacker DeVonte Holloman (Cowboys), center T.J.
Johnson (Bengals) and Cunningham.
Day three of NFL Draft 2013 ended in a high
note for all the draft picks.

“It was an incredible event we would like
to thank The NFL for putting together such a well organized event fans were so
happy being part of it. Many young man’s lives has been changed this weekend. We
wish best of success to all 2013 Draft Picks in the new Football Season.”
Concluded Geena Jinev Anac of Lightening Entertainment.

The Fight For The Name Vandenberg Saga Continues

For Immediate Release:
New York, NY

Almost a year ago former Vandenberg, Manic Eden, Whitesnake guitarist Adrian Vandenberg was
being sued to the rights to his name by former Vandenberg band members singer Bert Heerink, bassist Dick Kemper and drummer Jos Zoomer.

They wanted to prohibit him from using the name Vandenberg which is unheard of because it is his legal last name.

They lost the case and got out of it with a minor fine which is not even close to the unnecessary stress & hassle they have caused to Adrian Vandenberg.

Adrian Vandenberg recently posted on his Official Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/adrianvandenberg007 that he is being sued by bassist Dick Kemper and drummer Jos Zoomer second time around for the rights to his name. Here is the detailed story by Adrian Vandenberg himself:

” You won’t believe it, but as we speak another appeal is going on: me defending my own name against two clowns who got a free ride on my coattails ages ago, not having done anything noteworthy in all this time and now trying once again to make a quick buck using/ abusing my name.
The ‘funny’ thing is that I’m not planning to use my name ‘Vandenberg’ for my new band anyway, but of course I need to defend it against abuse.
The reason is for this is that I put together a fresh new, young and dynamic band, new albums and concerts coming up and my music style has evolved, as it should because I never like to constrict myself creatively by hanging in the past.

If we’d work under the ‘Vandenberg’ name, people might expect us to play most of the songs from that era, but the shows for my new band will feature a few Vandenberg and Whitesnake songs in addition to the new stuff. Maybe some Manic Eden tracks as well.

I am very proud of my past though, but it’s sad to see that these individuals that I invited to join my band in 1981(!) behave themselves in such an embarrassing way and put a greasy smudge on the memory of my former band.

At the time when I signed the contracts for my band with the record company and my USA management, these party’s put a lot of pressure on me to get rid of the other band members Heerink, Kemper and Zoomer because they felt the guys weren’t good enough musicians. In the back of my mind I knew they were right, but I didn’t want to let these guys down because I thought they were my friends. So out of loyalty I had to argue and fight to keep them in my band.
What do you know? More than 30 years later this treasonous situation comes up.

I never wanted to let the saying ‘No good deed goes unpunished’ get a grip on my philosophy in life, but…ehmmm.. a knife in ones back can feel pretty uncomfortable.

Then again if it wasn’t such a sad situation it could be highly entertaining in some masochistic way to see the individuals pictured here all pimped up and pouting in their plastic pants and puffed up hair butcher my songs and parade around with my logo on their XXL T-shirts. It’s basically like stealing a Ferrari and then cruise down Sunset Strip showing off with someone else’s property shouting: “Look at my new car!” Concluded Adrian Vandenberg

Adrian Vandenberg reached global success through his genuine talent and hard work. He is loved by many musician peers and fans throughout the world. Trying to steal his name is not only a cheap attempt to get some kind a recognition by bitter former band members who have not reached any kind of notable success since the dismembering of the band Vandenberg.

It’s like insisting on keeping the name Mc Donald’s but dropping the “Big Mac” from the menu and hoping that people still buy in to it.
Why would anyone even think about going to a battle they know that there is no chance that they can win? Is the real question.

Guitarist Adrian Vandenberg Gets Sued For The Rights To His Own Name

Posted in Uncategorized on July 23, 2012 by LIghtening Entertainment

   

Email: lightninginc1@aol.com Website: http://www.lighteningentertainment.com In the strange times that we live in as people are trying take every opportunity to hit someone with a bizarre law suit in order to get ahead, the strangest one surprisingly has occurred in the world of Rock n Roll!
Former Vandenberg, Manic Eden, Whitesnake guitarist Adrian Vandenberg gets sued to the rights to his name by former Vandenberg band members singer Bert Heerink, bassist Dick Kemper and drummer Jos Zoomer. He shared the story on his facebook page fans & friends were shocked!
“Almost a year ago I got summoned by a lawyer representing the three guys who I invited to play in my band at the time in 1981, trying to claim my own name ‘Vandenberg’ and actually trying to prohibit me from using my own name ‘Vandenberg’ through a lawsuit .. now how bizarre is that?!?
These individuals, singer Bert Heerink, bassist Dick Kemper (appropriate first name) and drummer Jos Zoomer, each of them factually not having achieved anything worth mentioning in about 27 years, now opportunistically trying to lift piggyback on the name/ reputation that I was fortunate to build through years of working my ass off with Vandenberg, Manic Eden and Whitesnake. A sad situation indeed, since I always thought these guys were friends.
The Bert Heerink attempt, is even more pathetic than the others, since I had to fire him from my band a year before I disbanded it, for reasons that I won’t disclose right now. So this individual wasn’t even in my band when I disbanded it. Nevertheless this person attempts to claim my personal name 26 years later (apparently Heerink doesn’t have anything to say at all about his own life, because his ‘wife’ is in charge of this whole thing, Spinal Tap-style) Naturally the judge wiped their claims away. You’d expect these leeches would crawl back embarrassed under the damp, mossy stones that they’d been hiding under for 27 years, but noooo; right now they’re trying once again to hijack my name through a different route (a ‘trademark office’).
It is basically like when you invite a couple of people for a ride on the backseat of your new car, and then after the ride these passengers claim that your car is now theirs because they were given a ride in it. Some people have no shame.. Never a dull moment!” Concluded Adrian Vandenberg
Adrian Vandenberg was originally the lead guitarist for the Dutch band Teaser, a band that released a self-titled album in 1978. He then started his own band, simply named Vandenberg, he wrote all the music and lyrics for, made the paintings for the album covers, designed the logo for who released three albums in the 1980s, Vandenberg, Heading for a Storm and Alibi. They are arguably best known for the ballad “Burning Heart”, a song that features complementing guitar layers and harmonies, and “Friday Night”, from the Heading for a Storm album. They toured extensively, including a support slot to the Michael Schenker Group in the UK in late 1982. A “Best of” compilation has recently been released. Adrian Vandenberg eventually disbanded his own band in 1986 to join Whitesnake with David Coverdale, Rudy Sarzo, Tommy Aldridge, Vivian Campbell n later Steve Vai which they have reached success globally with platinum albums, awards and Top 40 hits.
“Adrian Vandenberg is a genuine person and gifted musician, has signature guitars to his name, painter, one of the most prominent individuals from Netherlands, who has worked very hard to get where he is for years. The attempts to steal the rights to his name by other band members who have never reached any notable success in their careers are cheap and pathetic. How could a band be called Vandenberg without Adrian Vandenberg is anyone’s guess?”
