About me: HOT Myspace Layouts
I started out in the entertainment business as a singer/guitarist, that progressed from the local bar scene to touring all over the world with a 14pc show group which included 4 girls up front and brass section etc. Today I am a film and stage actor, a film and video producer/director and a devoted teacher/coach of the performing arts at the Chicago Actors Studio in Chicago, IL and The Screen Actors Boot Camp (farm) in Lanark, IL . Currently I am appearing in the, soon to be released production, "The Green Hornet", as mob enforcer "Magnani". Just finished working on a reality TV show "The Poker Life", as director, thru my film and video company Complete Video services & Film Productions which is a div of "Silver Screen Services" and gearing up in pre-production for a major feature film release project. I own various real estates concerns, a live entertainment company, namely Worldwide Entertainment Corp and have a strong driving personality. I originated, however, from a socially, poorer than dirt, financially challenged and dysfunctional family environment, that unknown to me at the time was given many gifts from parents, teachers and spouse. These precious gifts helped me unlearn destructive behavior patterns, the true meaning of love and that every individual has the power to direct the outcome of their life. These truths have lead me to success both financially and most importantly, spiritually. A great portion of the fruits from the many business concerns I own, from real estate to performing arts schools where I teach, direct & produce are channeled to benefit others in the long run. I feel compelled to share what I have and know with others with somewhat similar challenges that I had faced. I understand that we own nothing in this world. We are just caretakers of these so-called worldly possessions. It is important for everyone to understand that we all leave this earth with nothing except for the good works we have done or have failed to do for other and again, these so-called accumulated possessions are there just as tools to aid in achieving those good works. The service we do for other while on this earth is the rent we pay for being here. I stumble through everyday life and relationships, embracing every fruitful moment of it. Concerned over the outcome of potential errors in judgement, I often battle the impulse not to risk, but the fear within that, somehow produces the results of my constantly addressing and overcoming new challenges. I subscribe to the truth and drive the point home to all my students, that most people that do not risk are afraid of success & not failure. After all if you do not go for it, you have already failed, so if you are willing to accept that, you can't be afraid of failure. I am however one of the rare exception, in as much as I am more in fear of being nothing. And although many elements of success has fear attached to it, the fear of being nothing and free of substantial accomplishments in life is much, much greater. Many, tell me that I look 20 years younger than my actual age. I think that is because my thinking and drive matches the concepts of youth. Most persons of my age bracket are already well on the path of slowing down, or retiring from life's' challenges. That hunger to learn new concepts and ideas has begun to fade away. I however, have this thirst for constant learning, If you don't use it, you lose it, winding up being victimized by this gradual slipping away of your God-given gifts. I fully believe that if an individual stops risking, learning and most importantly having dreams that they look forward to, they may exist, but they cease to live. In the final analysis, when I have shed off this mortal coil, as we all will someday, I pray that I will have done enough for others to both make up for the errors I have made in the past, leaving some good works behind that will not only just benefit some portion of society, but be the catalyst that was instrumental in turning a life or two around that would have not normally gone too well.

2) The prestigious CHICAGO ACTORS STUDIO training center has been training professional actors for decades, The school is now celebrating the anniversary of its purchase of it's new building at 2040 N. ELSTON AVE in CHICAGO, IL and I have worked out a program to help those, who would normally not be able to afford taking classes by offering, COMPLETELY FREE OF CHARGE, a 8-10 WEEK ACTING TRAINING PROGRAM for a limited time only, This will also help those who lack sufficient knowledge to tell the difference between valuable professional training opposed to what is normally offered at other workshops around the globe. That is also why this program will be offered only to indivuduals who have not been previously registered at the Chicago Actors Studio. To take advantage of this offering, when contacting the school you must: a) Mention that your heard this from me on my myspace page.. b) You must sign up before the end of May 2007. Although you may choose to start your class schedule at that time, you must start your classes no later than the end of October 2008. Workshops are taught in beginning, interemediate and advance professional levels. Workshops offered are SCENE STUDY, VOICE & DICTION, MONOLOGUES, IMPROV, ON-CAMERA, STAGE, COMMERCIALS, INDUSTRIALS, AUDITIONING, MARKETING, SHAKESPEARE. The school also produces promo DVDs to help students get cast locally, bi-coastal as well as internationally. You may also stop by the school at 2040 N Elston Ave. in Chicago on any Wed, Thurs eve 7p-10-p or Sat noon-4p and visit a class without a prior appointment before making a decision to sign-up. WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE! THIS IS A GREAT OPPORTUNITY!!!

Happy Holidays to you. Be well. I've read that the holidays can be very depressing to some. If you know someone like that, share this with them :)

All my love and prayers are always there for you Edward; and I am sending all my love for you this holiday and always. God Bless you, your family, and friends.
Sometimes when i look around, all i see is misery, despair, frustration and pain...
Then, i close my eyes, take a couple deep breaths, RELAX...And ask myself, "WHAT IF all I saw was what I WANTED TO SEE?" Then, I open my eyes. I see the sun, I see the blue sky, I see my girls smiling back at me, I see life...
And then, lo and behold, I see nothing but OPPORTUNITY...

Thanks for reading. And if you enjoy these little sayings I send out, take a look at my site, http://TankJones.com and take a look at my blogs. You can also see a lot of pics of events I've done, music I've made and learn about my foundation.
Hi Ed... Yes, I'm like you. If it wasn't for my wife where would I be. There, finally you changed your picture here from the scruffy look, to the neat professional that you are. I realized after the previous comment, that maybe you took a picture of an acting role that you were doing and posted it for everyone to see. Sorry for my negative judgement then. I read your about me. Don't forget to change the bottom dates for your future pupils to read. Time has passed since then. Take care and would love to take a course in acting school, if only to help with my scriptwriting. Trick or treat.
