The Doors Redux [14 Mar 2010|04:19pm] feastof_friends [kevin_avery] I've addressed Paul Nelson's writings about the Doors before, back in June of 2008 ("Perceiving the Doors"). In that same entry, I mentioned that award-winning director Tom DiCillo was at work on a Doors documentary. Now that DiCillo's movie, When You're Strange: A Film About the Doors, is preparing for its U.S. premiere (in select theaters on April 9) and the Internet is abuzz with anticipation, it seems like a good time to post this ad from July 1967, which incorporated part of Paul's Hullabaloo review about the band's first album. Just click on the image to enlarge it. And, while we're on the subject, here's the trailer to DiCillo's film, which is artfully composed entirely of period footage, much of it previously unreleased. Should you miss DiCillo's film in the theater, fear not: it's also scheduled to appear on PBS's American Masters series on May 26. Copyright 2010 by Kevin Avery. All rights reserved.

[09 Mar 2010|12:15pm] nirv182ltjatari The adult world is filled with boundaries and molds, and i just need some kind of outlet.  I'm spending all day writing stress journals, while im stressed out because i procrastinated, and i dont know if they're going to be accepted for credit.  everything is an edit.  everything is done to fit into the mold of society, and thats just how everyone lives i guess. that is being an adult.  and it kind of blows.  Give me some candy
