NOTE
FROM HAL: By all accounts, the first-ever Southern California
APTRA Holiday Party was a success! The event was sold out --
about 120 partiers! It was held at Universal City Walks's Cafe
Tu Tu Tango in Los Angeles. Tu Tu Tango is like an artist's
loft, which provided for a very different party environment.
It was a very special evening. The band, FULL THROTTLE, was
rocking. Sony Recording Artist Brenda Epperson sang. The Chairman
of the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Bryce Zabel spoke
and a lot of folks made new friends and saw old ones! As APTRA's
organizer for this party, I want to personally thank all of
you who came and all of you who participated and helped make
it a memorable event! Now, we 're pleased to present APTRA'S
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HOLIDAY PARTY: THE NIGHT IN PICTURES!
