Today we talk with musician and actor Timmy Cappello. Timmy is the original "Epic Sax Man" and he made a splash on the big screen in 1987 in the film The Lost Boys, which starred Corey Haim, Corey Feldman and Jason Patrick.
The film would go on to earn over $32 million dollars and become an absolute classic.
Timmy's big scene happens about 10 minutes into the film, when he's shown performing at an outdoor concert on the Santa Clara boardwalk. He's shirtless, buff, heavily oiled, wearing a chain choker, sporting a long ponytail and purple leather pants. He's belting out the lyrics and playing saxophone to a catchy song called "I Still Believe".
I caught up with Timmy to find out about some of the rather incredible things he's gotten to do over the years...from appearing on some of the biggest albums of all time to touring the world with Tina Turner, Peter Gabriel, Carly Simon and Ringo Starr.
