Kevin's Celeb Pics

It was a judge and a rocker last night in Springfield.

United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia was in town to speak at the Centennial Celebration of the Illinois Supreme Court Building at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Museum.
Scalia arrived about 20 minutes before the scheduled 7 p.m. start. He signed one 8 x 10, commenting about how much hair he had in the photo. Scalia was a bit hesitant about posing for a photo, but finally agreed after a bit of prodding.

A couple of blocks away, legendary rock drummer Carmine Appice was conducting a clinic at Rolen Brothers Music. Appice got his start with Vanilla Fudge and later was the long-time drummer for Rod Stewart. During his tenure with Stewart, Appice wrote two of Stewart's biggest hits, "Young Turks," and "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" The hour and a half clinic featured numerous demonstrations by Appice and question and answer session. As he wrapped up the event, he headed to his merchandise table to meet fans and sign autographs.
