Do you remember a time when all Amirighters were combined for one common goal? A time when brother was against brother in a contest to end all contests? A time when time itself was in random disarray and humor was pouring from every pore? If you do then you probably remember "Ages of Amiright" a Matthias created project and the same man who brought you such classics as "The White Trash Story" and "Decathlon: Mark 2" now bring you the sequel to a much awaited challenge and that is "Ages of Amiright Part 2"!!!

Johnny D (John Small) has been cast as "Tito", the Italian opera star, in The Concord Players' February 2007 production of the comedy "Lend Me A Tenor". In Act One, "Tito" and "Max" (played by Michael Govang) sing a two-minute duet from the Verdi opera "Don Carlo". Johnny D assures us that his attempt at faking his way through a couple minutes of real opera will bring new meaning to the word "farce".
