Helped promote the Atlanta Pop Festival in Byron &
Lake Spivey & Municipal Auditorium Shows with Alex Cooley while attending UGA and Ga.State. Also was involved with the first five Music Midtown Festivals.
Then focused on Real Estate, & Government Leasing.
Got my old friend Alex Cooley (RIP) out of retirement and formed Cooley-Penso Productions LLC . (Parklife, Rolling Stones (Zip Code tour)at Bobby Dodd, Eddies Attic),
Who can forget Mr.Andrews notes being sent to the Principals office, Mr.Locklear always overlooking Steve Edenfield's many missed classes & of course Ms. Barnes allowing the many Krispy Kreme Runs.

I caught up with Straiton and his wife at Jimmy Garner's memorial last year. While we both were weathered a bit , I guess you just can't age a smile! RIP
