Just thought I'd pass this along,but I have the "privledge"

of owning Vanilla's 1991 autobiography{Ice By Ice} ,and he mentions in it that he wasnt originally going to be in the movie.

He said it was originally going to to be played by a woman,and that the writers and producers didnt even know who Vanilla was until the young son of the movie's executive of production{Tom Gray} recommended him to his dad.

Apparently,he and Coming Out Of our Shells Band were on the same label{SBK Records},and that made it easy to contact Ice.

Ice's scene was filmed in NC in Oct. '90 on a soundstage,which was surprising to me...the Dockshore Club seemed like a real club{albeit when I was seven.}

*Side note to this really long topic...according to IMDB.com{who by all means,isnt always right}says Keno was created because the producers enjoyed his work as Donnie's stunt double in TMNT 1.*

Take that Keno haters!!.......Just kidding,he annoys me,too..
