Any Sopranos Fans?

[Ronald S. Jr.]

Don't know about you, but I've always loved the show "The Sopranos". Growing up very Italian, a lot of the attitudes and opinions and characters rang true, and it made it all the more enjoyable.

Anyway, tonight, I was out at the new casino having some fun, when I hear this loud cough (unintentional) pretty much right behind my back. So I turn around, and low and behold, who's strolling by? Why, it's Christopher Moltisanti, Bobby Baccialieri, and Johnny Sacrimoni. Apparently I missed the part where they were there to sign autographs and have a private party in the "Player's Lounge". So, I quickly ran over, stood in line for 3 hours, but finally got to take a few pictures and get three signed portraits (for 10 bucks, lol). They were great guys, but Christopher (Michael Imperioli) was by far the coolest. Very down to earth. They were very out of character, too, which was kinda nice. I walked up to him and said "Hey, how are ya?" and he stands up, says "Hey, what's goin on, man?" and throws his open hand up and shakes my hand (ya know, when you lock thumbs and grip your fingers around?). I thought that was very cool. I said "mind if I take a snap?" and he goes "hey, let 'er rip- that's a hell of a camera" (5D and 24-70L with 580). Very awesome guy. The others were civil but not in a good mood. Anyway, here's a shot of Christopher that I liked:

[incendy]

I can see it! Very nice shot.. Looks like so many of his pictures, he must have that look well trained=D

[Ronald S. Jr.]

Thanks very much. I'm psyched that I got a shot that nice, with my own camera, of one of my favorite TV guys. :-D

[taramcg]

Christapha! Love him. :) Good shot.

I live in Soprano land. They actually filmed a scene in my town last year.

[ayotnoms]

Wow nice shoot.
It looks a like a head shot a publicist would put out.

Well done.
:)

[mamabravo]

you lucky dog!

i love the sopranos

god! i wish i could of taken his photo!

[Ronald S. Jr.]

um that's my dad

Alrighty. So what are the two things he's wearing around his neck?

[Brodog2525]

you are so lucky. i would have been nervous taking his photo that close and probably would have messed it up somehow!

[Ronald S. Jr.]

I was nervous about taking too long! The place was swamped with security.

[MDJAK]

That is an excellent shot.

What's special about it is your background story. Isn't it nice when a big actor is a nice person also and makes you feel welcome into his sphere.

Great job, Ron.

Great show, nice picture. Amazing that there is a celebrity that would actually be that nice and also pose for pictures. I think most of them would have had a bodyguard rip it out of your hands.

[KansasMom]

DAMN! I am SO completely jealous! How COOL!

[song4themoon]

Great pic!

[michael_]

great shot ronald i love the sopranos pitty its over :(

[A01]

Great looking shot! Makes me want the next season of the sopranos even more :lol:

[michael_]

next season? i didnt think it was coming back

[JMAS]

Love the Sopranos and you got a great photo.
I imagine the conditions and pressure were difficult, but you did fine.

[A01]

next season? i didnt think it was coming back

I heard it was? And the end of season 6 wasnt really a good series finally i thought :)

And nice to see another Sydney man! ;)

[Choderboy]

next season? i didnt think it was coming back

Returns Wednesday Night 10:40pm.
(well that's what Ch9 are saying now , they have proven to be unreliable :rolleyes: )

[A01]

Yeah i think thats season 5 though on 9 now. Watching them with the US air dates is way better ;)

[Ronald S. Jr.]

Don't know when it's coming back, but I've heard words of a "final season".

[michael_]

yeah that should be season 5 on channel 9 season 6 ended in the US a few months back i was sure i read somewhere it was the last season if its not the case awesome.

and hey A01 ;)

[Choderboy]

Yeah i think thats season 5 though on 9 now. Watching them with the US air dates is way better ;)

TV guide shows "member only" airing tomorrow night.
That is the first episode of Season 6.

Hey Ronald , you're keen to line up for that long. I'm a big fan, but it would have taken Adrianna or Meadow to make me wait that long :)

Michael must be a good actor - you say he was "down to earth" - he is very convincing as a hot head on the show...

[JaGWiRE]

Woah, that looks damn pro if I may say so myself.

[blighty]

Good job. Sounds like a nice guy.

[D Boone]

Dude, how cool is that.... Glad to hear he was a nice guy in real life. I am pretty sure the sopranos are coming back for a few, maybe I heard 8 episodes in the next and final season. That show is the best reason to hav HB0.

sweet! Great shot.
