Jam Cruise goes to eleven with a screening of This Is Spinal Tap in the Teatro Carlo Felice,,followed by Q&A with documentary producer Marty DiBergi(Capt. Toast), guitarist Nigel Tufnel(Eddie Roberts),singer David St. Hubbins(Jesus)(and his fucking wife),and bass player Derek Smalls(Robert Walter).,and all of the guys who have sat in the drummers seat over their history(Mike Dillon,Stanton Moore,Russel Batiste,Jim Loughlin,Billy Martin,Jon Staten,Wally Ingram,Vinnie Amico, alright I'll stop now). how much fun could this be.all we need is some popcorn and I'm set to go.

I'd be down with that, if I made it to the theater for a movie, which I've never done.

Yes it sounds like a lot of fun at first sight. But this could be a slippery slope. Next stop Rocky Horror Show? :THINK:

Screen it on the Jumbo Tron.

It's a fun movie to talk over with a drink in your hand.

Or late night on JCTV.

and to offer the counter view: pump the movie to the rooms if you want, but don't take up a music venue to screen an old movie. thanks

That's just reserved for football games during pool deck sets.

counter counter point - that's not "taking up a music venue" if there is a set going on at the same time

Go Seahawks!

I like the idea of screening Spinal Tap (no sound) on the jumbotron while music is playing instead of the trippy animations at some point.

But I think even better would be to show it inside during the day.... they could put it in the theatre on an afternoon at sea; use the crappy timeslot Everyone Orchestra keeps getting for the movie, and get EO back up on the pool deck with a night slot where they belong! Souns like a win/win to me :mrgreen:

I had thought that too but I don't know if I would be able to pull myself away from the pool deck, the days on Jam Cruise are the only chance I get to see the sun during the month of Jamuary. I got to get my winter dose of vitamin D cause I won't get up here in the great grey Northwest.

But if serk can get herself up early to join my for my bday party this year, I suppose I can pull myself away from the sun to join her for a showing. :wink:

Yes!!! Serk you need to run this show! :CLAP:

EO needs to get back on pool deck and the theater is ideal for movie screening if it's done during dead time.

Dead time on Jam Cruise? You mean time devoted to GD? That's the only dead time that comes to my mind.

On the other hand, pre party hotel... ?

You've got a point. I was mainly making an opportunistic plug here to get EO back on pool deck where they belong and not hidden in the theater. I'm sneaky that way. As you know I have been doing this every year and C9 always responds with a resounding "f**k off!". But we all know that the water drops carve out a stone not by force but by persistence!
