A mere one day after my posting about how it would be nice to have more sound. My wonderful wife Lisa gives me a call from a pawn shop in Norman. Not the normal hang for her but apparently she took my desire for wattage to heart. She was psyched to find a great deal on two speaker towers that should pump up the volume (beware: 1980s M|A|R|R|S reference).
Weather looks good for tonight – may even be a little chilly – so bring a jacket.
We are in the market for sound. Serious. Loud. Powerful. Sound. Anything we can do to increase the viewer experience at the Renegade Picture Show. Right now I have a portable stereo that I lug out to each drive-in show. It looks puny. It is puny. I’m surprised I haven’t blown a speaker yet – it’s bound to happen soon. So what I want is a PA system that BUMPS. I want something that I can keep onsite and roll out of storage when we need it. Plug that sucker in to an FM tuner for audio reception and crank it up.
I’m in the market for equipment that IS NOT BRAND NEW. But I want something that is worthy of big sound and can take a beating – or already has taken a beating. If it beats what I have now, which isn’t much, then I’m willing to take it.
If you have or know someone with such a system that would be willing to donate it – maybe in return for advertising during the show or just as a generous gesture that would be ideal. However, if you want to do it the old-fashion way where goods are exchanged for greenbacks, we can work it that way too.
Drop me a line on the CONTACTS form.
REMINDER – DRIVE-IN MOVIE – FRIDAY, JUNE 8 – SHOW BEGINS AROUND 9:00 PM.
Yo – let’s try this again. Friday, June 8 is the next show. Keep your fingers crossed for no rain. I think right now they are saying 30% chance. That doesn’t mean anything 5 days out.
Hands down, a great movie. Don’t miss it. I’ve seen it many times but still can’t wait to see it again – especially on the big screen!
Also….
WE’VE GOT STICKERS, FOLKS. Really kick-ass looking stickers. Show up to this week’s show and I will give you one for the low low price of FREE.
We’ve had to cancel tonight’s show due to rain. It will be rescheduled for another date.
Our next show is Friday, June 1. Show starts at dark (that means around 9:00 pm). The location is same as before – OKC Rocks, back of the silos.
this is a great movie – it’s the first feature film for the Wilson brothers and the first feature film for Wes Anderson. It was shot entirely in Texas around Dallas and Houston.
The movie should be a lot of fun to watch on the big screen, uhh, I mean silo. Bring food, bring drinks, bring something to sit on. Bring a friend. Let’s hope it doesn’t rain. If it looks like rain – we’ll have to reschedule. Damn, I hope I didn’t jinx it by saying that.
