Alfredo sings!

Name:

Alfredo Hurtado

Hometown:

I was born and raised in East Newark, NJ.

What is something that most people don't understand about the war in Iraq?

I couldnʼt get over how some parts of Iraq reminded me of Florida, with all the palm
trees, and some of it reminded me of Jersey with the foul stench of the Meadowlands
and the sound of shots fired coming from Newark. I really donʼt have anything great
to say about it. The only thing I can say is that the media has pretty much covered
everything about that @#it hole. If you ask me about Afghanistan, I have more to say
about it the next blog.

What smells do you associate with spring?

I love spring! The smell of skirts and less clothes. The smell of the growing
vegetation and the first grass cut. The start of BBQ season is upon us, and the smell
of burning wood. I can go on but I wonʼt bore you.

How did you propose to your wife?

Very carefully.

Some executives are coming to meet with you to discuss your big break into show business...what will you wear?

It depends where we are meeting. If weʼre meeting in an office or a fine dining
establishment then a suit, real tight one, and if theyʼre meeting me at a gig then I
would be in my stage cloths, black t-shirt and jeans. Wait, wear that every day.

Do you have a blog or website you'd like to plug?

www.thesimplestrings.net, www.thesimplestrings.com, check out my song
“Awakening” on youtube under Alfredo Hurtado and on facebook “Letʼs Convince
Alfredo Hurtado to try out for Americaʼs Got Talent”. My sister created the fan page.
There will be more songs coming soon.
