It's really getting to be summer in these here parts! Hope everyone is enjoying the great weather! Go outside and get some sun - you know who you are!
In my family, my generation of cousins were self proclaimed the next generation of Palma's, or "Next Gen" (as coined by my cousin Tod, who I believe took it from a comic book a while ago). Now that we're getting older, the last of my "Gen", and possibly a cross over into "Gen 3" is no other than my brother J.J. He's the last and youngest child of generation 1 from my dad.
Jay, has appeared here on my blog before, and like any brother, I'm pretty proud of my siblings. Our sister is a concert pianist, who plays circles around what ever level I ever attained in the height of my piano playing "career" (then again, I was using my powers for "no good", but that's another story). Jay is tall (got it from his mom's side), athletic, smart, good looking (runs in our genes - ha!), gets good grades, and is an all around good "kid". So why not exploit those qualities and use him as a model while testing out lights I borrowed from my good friend Keri of Kaba Head Kreations (thanks Keri!).
I invited Jay over Sunday to play around with some set ups, and here's what we got.

Next Gen 3 himself, Jerome James Palma.
BTW ladies, he's already taken.
A pensive moment.
This one was posed on his part, his take on Rodin's "The Thinker" I think.
Kinda looks like he's looking at my watermark. Sorry.
Have a terrific week everyone. Stay cool! And as always, thanks for stopping by.

Jay is also a basketball stand-out. Serious. He's got game, and it's not because I'm a proud big brother. I've seen him "school" other players. Nasty.
Thanks Jay for modeling for your kuya. We'll do more soon.
Lastly, Cold Tofu was asked to perform at the Company of Angels fundraiser last week Thursday (Thank you Joyce Liu and Jully Lee!). Solid show! Here are a few backstage photos I took that evening.

Jamaal Steven Brady. As a "side" photo, our good friends Denise and Rambo invited us to the Hollywood Bowl last wednesday, for a night of Jazz and great food (thanks guys!). On our way back to our car after the show, going into the tunnel under Highland, I took this photo:
Have a terrific week everyone. Stay cool! And as always, thanks for stopping by.
