Long before they became doctors, lawyers, CEO’s or real estate developers, they played in garage bands and maybe even dreamed of becoming rock stars. That’s why they signed up for Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp.
For nearly a week, the mostly middle-aged “campers” had practiced in the West 54th Street studios. They came from as far away as London and Tokyo and as close as Long Island and downtown New York to prepare for their moment of onstage glory.
“I feel like I’m 18 again,” said Jerry Goldberg, a 60-year-old investment banker and guitar player, whose family was in the audience.” I admit that I felt a little uncertain when I first got here, but this has turned out to be a wonderful experience, one of the greatest of my life.”
Everybody has two businesses, their own business and show business. This can be a life-changing experience for them. Mr. Daltrey, who has appeared at several fantasy camps, was asked why he keeps coming back.
“I’ve had people tell me that I shouldn’t be doing this, that it's bad for my image,” he acknowledged. “But that’s rubbish. Look, it’s all so positive, and everybody is having so much fun. So what’s bad about that?”
Jeff Munger, a drummer and rancher(農場主) said. “I’m at a point in my life where I’m going to spend my money on things I’m passionate about, and I’m absolutely crazy about music.”
Most of the campers are successful executives or professionals: a founder of the Oracle Computer Company, a businessman whose father invented the Big Mac, a plastic surgeon, presidents of health care and seafood companies.

Jerry is a restaurant manager who is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say.
One day I went up to Jerry and asked him, “I don’t get 36 ! You can’t be a __37__ person all of the time. How do you do it?” Jerry replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself you have two __38__ today. You can choose to be in a good mood 39 you can choose to be in a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood. It’s your choice __40__ you live life.”
Several years later, I heard that Jerry did something you are never __41__ to do in the restaurant business…. He __42__ the back door open one morning and was held up at __43__ point by three armed robbers. He was shot by them while trying to fight back. __44__, Jerry was found relatively quickly and __45 to the local trauma(外傷) center. After 18 hours of surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jerry was released 46
the hospital with fragments of the bullets 47 in his body.
I saw Jerry about six months after the __48 . Jerry told me something happening in the ER( 急診室). He said, “… the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the ER and I saw the 49 on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really 50 . In their eyes, I 51 ‘he’s a dead man.’ I knew I needed to take 52 .” “What did you do?’ I asked. “Well, there was a nurse shouting questions at me,” said Jerry. “She asked 53 I was allergic to anything. ‘ Yes’ I replied. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled, ‘BULLETS!’ Over their 54 , I told them, ‘I am choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead’.” Jerry lived thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude. I learned from him that every day we have the choice to live fully.
Attitude, 55 , is everything.
