Sol FischlerMore than one-thousand yuppies are dancing on the floor of a popular New York nightclub called The Saint. We called ourselves The VPs (as in vice presidents), and, in 1986, put out a 12-inch single called Power Breakfast. Producer Oliver Stone called to consider our stuff for a movie he was making called Wall Street, and Lorimar and Orion Pictures pitched us treatments of our story as a TV sitcom and theatrical movie. Who would have thought a hobby like drumming in a hometown band would have led to such a unique business story? If you follow your dreams - and are in the right place at the right time - anything can happen.
