Johnny Colt displayed his photography collection entitled “Lessons Never Learned”. The series of photographs includes photographs from his personal journey of life on the road. Other featured photographers included: Bobi Dimond, Michael Bryant, Lesley Ann Price, Alan Mogensen, Steven Waldschmidt, and Eric Underwood. Bobi Dimond studied under Ansel Adams and is well known in Atlanta’s photography circles for her work. Michael Bryant a long time Atlanta favorite as well as an internationally collected artist had ten new impressive photos on display.

Guests enjoyed Worthmore’s Signature Rum Punch (the ingredients are kept secret only the punch maker knows the secret ingredients), wine, ice cold beer, and soda with light finger food and the event lasted well beyond the original times listed.

Worthmore Jewelers recently opened in Downtown Decatur. Harris Botnick, the president, said “We picked Decatur because of it’s sense of community and the hip trendy feel of Decatur. Tonight reinforced why Decatur was the perfect choice for Worthmore Jewelers.”

When Worthmore Jewelers opened in Decatur, they took over a space that used to be home to a gallery. That gave Harris the inspiration to have the décor of the store maintain the gallery aspect. “Adding art to the walls that our customers can purchase has created an even more enjoyable place to work and shop.” stated Botnick. In fact, it has been so successful that when they decided to remodel their Midtown location on Amsterdam they did the same thing.

“We were just so glad that we could participate in ACP tonight” said Botnick. “It’s a great way to celebrate why Atlantan and Decatur are such great communities.”

A legend in his own right, Johnny Colt is the kind of person who’s at rest while in motion. Having sold more than 10 million records, Colt thrives on challenges and vibrates with an infectious energy that pulls everyone around him along for the ride. Colt was bassist for the Black Crowes, one of the most credible and influential rockbands of all time. The Black Crowes graced the cover of Rolling Stone, sold over 5 million records, and received multiple Grammy nominations. From there, Colt became a songwriter and member of the Grammy Award winning band Train. Train helped Colt bridge the gap and crossover from Rock to Top 40 with Top 40 hit after hit. Then, in October 2006, Colt received a phone call from good friend Tommy Lee asking him to join super group Rockstar Supernova with Tommy, Gilby Clarke from Guns & Roses, and lead singer Lukas Rossi to go on a world wide tour and play the biggest arenas on earth.

Two things happened which would forever change Johnny Colt’s life. The first was going to club after club with Tommy Lee and DJ Aero and hanging out in the booth with them night after night. The second was the drum and bass solo created by Colt & Tommy Lee during the Supernova tour which transformed into a live Electro/Rock Mash Up Set performed in front of tens of thousands every night. This resulted in the development and creation of the first of it’s kind – THE ZODIAC GUITAR.

Colt’s musical achievements certainly qualify him as a man who knows good music when he hears it. He has managed to blend his experiences and influences from Rock – the Black Crowes, Top 40 – Train, Electro – Tommy Lee & DJ Aero, and Hip Hop – relationship with Rick Rueben formally of Def Jam during the early Hip Hop days with the likes of Run DMC, Public Enemy, & Beastie Boys combined with his Atlanta roots of being right in the middle of the Southern Hip Hop explosion to create a sound that clubs across the world are begging to hear. A powerful mix of Rock/Top 40/Electro/Hip Hop Mash Ups combined with Colt’s own unique showmanship have brought about the next degree in nightlife.
