Happy Birthday!!! to my brother Alex Orbi Orbison (shown here as a child with father Roy)
Roy Orbison’s 5th son. Alex is also known as “Orbi” from some reality shows. He is a a businessman, film director and non-stop Orbison Executive.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
My favorite drummer, he played for two bands I was an honorary roadie for: Backbone69 & Whitestarr .

Backbone was headed by one of my best friends, Chris Williams, who died in a car crash in 2001. The band also included “blood-brothers” of ours: Duane Betts and Damen Webb.
Whitestarr was headed by another beloved friend who is like family – Cisco Adler , son of the great Lou Adler. (Lou Adler is a Grammy Award-winning American record producer, music executive, talent manager, songwriter, film director, film producer, and co-owner of the famous Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood, California)
I’ll be posting more about these bands and people in the future…
But first, hats off and a great big HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ALEX ORBISON on this May 25, 2017!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
