What better way to spend 4/20 then with a free screening of Dazed and Confused ON the beach? Tonight in Long Beach, at Cherry Beach (just below Junipero and Ocean Blvd) from 8-10 there will be an inflatable screen and sound system setup so you can ride your bike down with a blanket and other ‘necessities.’ The folks at Alfredo’s Beach Club are helping to put it all on and will be selling snacks and soft drinks (otherwise we’d bring down some free pops for everyone). For more info check their Facebook event page.
I saw Dazed in the theaters more than any other movie… probably twice as much as any other, I think around a dozen times. Then… I happened to be living in Austin, Tx (the unofficial home of Dazed) during the 10th anniversary of Dazed and went out to the lake where they filmed the ‘party at the moontower’ and watched the movie outdoors with a bunch of the cast. A couple years ago we also put Dazed on the cover of Off the Wookie and I was able to interview Richard Linklater (The Director), Jason London (Pink), and Wiley Wiggins (Mitch). You can check it out the article in Issue #4 at www.offthewookie.com.
