Comments on: Update: Video of the Lincoln Memorial Dedication http://pageonekentucky.com/2009/06/08/update-video-of-the-lincoln-memorial-dedication/ an informed, savvy take on media & politics in Kentucky Thu, 24 May 2012 03:13:30 -0700 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.3 By: jake http://pageonekentucky.com/2009/06/08/update-video-of-the-lincoln-memorial-dedication/comment-page-1/#comment-50793 jake Mon, 08 Jun 2009 22:26:38 +0000 http://pageonekentucky.com/2009/06/08/update-video-of-the-lincoln-memorial-dedication/#comment-50793 The Fischers did, indeed, host a reception for legislators and such prior to the dedication. (Might the reception's location and host have something to do with Greg wanting to run for mayor? Could have been hosted at the WDC building just up the street.) But my video (not pictures) is clearly pre-event. Doesn't take a brain scientist to figure that out. The Fischers did, indeed, host a reception for legislators and such prior to the dedication.

That event was held at the Waterfront Plaza 22nd/23rd floor residence of George Fischer, Greg's dad starting at 6:30pm. The media were not present. David Karem was emcee, many corporate types, donors, legislators and councilmembers were there, as was the Attorney General and his pregnant wife. Senator Dan Kelly was singled out as the most important legislator on the project. Lots of good food and drink and views to die for all around the city. The sculptor Mr Hamilton and most of his family was there. Other assorted players attended. The Mayor and Mrs. Abramson were there. Your friend Jeff Noble even played the piano in the parlor, which overlooks the Waterfront Park. After the speeches, they all put on special pins and boarded trolleys which conveyed them over to the unveiling. Your pictures aren’t from the Pre-Event.

Of course, not too many folks want to see Sylvia's hootch. TJ, Cordish wouldn’t pay Sylvia’s appearance fee, even though it was a mere fraction of what Paris charged.
