@burtoncummings While traveling in the fall of 2011, I spotted your name on the Cactus Pete's billboard in Jackpot, NV, so of course I had to stop for the night . . . small venue, huge performance - thank you. BTW you had a cold and yet pounded out such a great gig!. Bravo, Burton ♥️

Trending for embracing her natural beauty, Rachel Ward is also beautiful on the inside! I spent 10 days on the set of THE SEA WILL TELL & at the wrap party, Rachel hugged & kissed me on the cheek while we talked. Sweet memory♥️
