Show: Fantasy Fridays with The Last Starfighter (film), Beastmaster (film) and TomTomTomBoy
Location: Dos Butt
Cost: RSVP
Drinks: for sale at the bar or BYO
Things I missed to be there: MUTATORS, DAILY VOID, MODERN CREATURES, and TINY MUSIC at peopleprojects; Indecent Exposure with DJ Demchuk, Dancefloor Destroyers, BukakeBattle Kru and more at Liar's Club; Busdriver, Aleks + the Drummer, and Gutter Butter at Logan Square Auditorium; LOVELY LITTLE GIRLS, DEMONOLOGISTS and collage art by Christopher Ilth at Reversible Eye; PHOBIA, MAGRUDERGRIND, SKARP, AFGRUND, HEWHOCORRUPTS, and MORALDECAY at Metal Shaker; Mexican Cheerleader and Vacation Bible School at Lucky Gator Loft; DJ MAJOR TAYLOR at Tumans
Reason for going: wanted to do something different
Note: I left early to catch the show at Reversible Eye but that had ended even earlier. Christopher Ilth's collages were phenomenal though
As soon as I saw a post from Bike-In Cinema saying that they were starting up these Fantasy Fridays, I rsvp'd. Either last summer or the summer before that, they were hosting these impeccably curated movie screening that would feature usually one piece of high art and one piece of low art based around a similar theme. I somehow always missed them (it seemed like half of them ended up rained out anyway). If I heard correctly, the bike drive-in is coming back, but until then, we have this, a monthly fantasy double feature, plus booze and vegan ice cream, plus some sort of fantastical band (plus DJs?). If this keeps going, and if people start taking cues from the lone Beastmaster, in his stuffed animal tiger skin and undies, it looks like it will end up as some sort of hipster Rocky Horror Picture show (which, since maybe you can't tell my tone of voice from the words on the screen), I mean to say is a good thing.
