chatting up Gary Sinise


You probably know actor Gary Sinise  as Detective Mac Taylor on  CSI: NY, or maybe his roles in big movies such as :  Lt.. Dan Taylor  in Forrest Gump, Ken Mattingly in Apollo 13, or Stu Redman in The Stand  mini series (among many others).


But did you know that he is also a musician (bass player) and travels the world as The Lt. Dan Band with the USO entertaining the troops?  (http://www.ltdanband.com/index.html)  



He also started the Gary Sinise Foundation (http://www.garysinisefoundation.org/) to  raise funds and help those who serve America and their families.

We were lucky enough to have him as a guest on our radio show this last Wednesday because he is coming through Colorado for concerts and  a fundraising golf tournament.  Al did the actual interview on air but I got to talk to him before that on the phone. It was hard, but I was very well behaved and only gushed once, saying "we just love you!"
Listen in on the interview here:
