The last time I saw Richard was in the Castro in SF and he told me, "you'd better go see Joni in The Last Waltz come Thursday, 'cause it's the last time they're showing the new restored print on the big screen with re-mastered sound." I laughed and said "you must be kidding, it just started showing and already they're quitting? I'd better get to The City, who knows when again it might come around?" :-)
So, I'm going to the 9:30 p.m. show tonight at the Castro theater in S.F. (there's a 7:00 show, too). Any Bay Area jmdlers want to meet up at some dark cafe before or after the show? I said "Richard, Richard...thanks for the reminder." -Julius Richard wrote: Has anyone else seen the new re-mastered print of "The Last Waltz" yet? I went last night, at the Castro theater in San Francisco, and have to say, they've done one fantastic job. The sound alone is worth the trip to the movies. Plus the visuals are so clear now. But the sound... is amazing. The theater was packed, for a Wednesday evening, and spontaneious audience applause joined that of the audience at Winterland, after several of the musician's songs, notably, Joni's Coyote. What a glorious rock 'n' roll conccert film. Richard in San Francisco
