NYC DIY Days Dinner

A whole bunch of us got together for food, drink, and lots of blab about the way this world of film is changing — and now you can join us!  

The good folks at The Workbook Project made this happen with a little help from their friends of course.  Come join Lance Weiler, Arin Crumley, Susan Buice, Lance Hammer, Faye Dunaway, Paul Rachman, Stephen Rapael, Slava Rubin, Joseph Marin, Jennifer Kushell, and of course myself.  This is just the intro segment.  Two more to come.  

I was mentioning this dinner to my friend Christine Vachon, telling her how I thought it was a good idea it was, a lot of fun, quite informative, and how well it was shot.  Christine’s response was “Did anyone get a word in edge-wise?”.  In this episode I don’t start to rant until the 27:27 mark, so you be the judge.

Ban Humans From TV!

What if Humans were never on TV?  Only animals and animation.  Hmmm….  At least we’d probably get to watch LANCELOT LINK SECRET CHIMP a whole lot more.  This show played on network TV in prime time around 1970, which meant that back then almost forty years ago, this is what “They” thought all Americans wanted to do after dinner.  Maybe they were right?  Maybe the time is right for Chimp TV.

Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band

There has been very few things that have truly blown my mind.  And those that have, I cherish.  For some reason, I expect more from the music world, to have had that power.  The first time I heard X’s “Johnny Hit And Run Pauline” certainly charts.  I will come up with a few others.

Captain Beefheart’s wail did it regularly.  And for me it was alsways solo too, in that I never found other fans wanting to get lost in his crazy blues.  Borders will blown wide open everytime he opened his mouth though, even alone in my apartment.  Definitely driving.
I never came across this doc before several weeks ago.  John Peel narrates.  There are six parts up on YouTube.  Here’s Part One:
