    So as I am sure you have heard the new $65 million “Spiderman: Turn Off the Dark” resumed previews after its fourth major accident occurred. It has been reported that more safety measures have been put in place. Well that is good, I am glad after four people were injured, they finally put better safety measures in. And the show hasn’t even opened yet!

    I can’t help but wonder why do we need so many stunts and special effects in musicals?

    Cara had the great fortune on Thursday December 2nd 2010 to perform once again with Trini Lopez, this time at the San Manuel Casino in Highland California. Cara was providing backing vocals with L’Marco Smith and Marcy Brooks.

    The concert was a roaring success and Trini once again showed that he has lost none of his stage presence or charm when performing. Trini performed some of his greatest hits including ‘If I Had a Hammer’, ‘Lemon Tree’ and of course the infamous ‘La Bamba’.

    This Thanksgiving weekend I had the privilege of singing with Trini Lopez for the Lift Up America annual Celebrity golf tournament charity event in Palm Springs.
    We had a blast.

    On Thursday November 25th the charity was able to feed thousands of homeless children. Friday 26th November was the pairings party, and Saturday 27th November was the golf tournament and Gala celebration.

    I sang three songs of my own including my arrangement of Man-eater with Corey Burrell’s Queen B’s and then had the honor of singing with Trini Lopez for the main event of the evening.
