“"I got a girlfriend that's better than that She has the smoke in her eyes As we get older and stop making sense You won't find her waiting long" (Talking Heads) I've always loved music with quirky lyrics. Steely Dan, The Kinks, and Warren Zevon come to mind immediately. But that short list is incomplete if it doesn't include Talking Heads. For years I've read that their 1984 concert documentary "Stop Making Sense" was fantastic. IMDb says it "is considered by critics as the greatest concert film of all time". So a) when the film was re-released in a restored version to celebrate its 40th anniversary, and b) when I saw Real Art Ways scheduled week long screenings, well, I knew I'd be making my very first visit there. Tickets were ordered through their website, and that went super easy. There were seven showings available, and tickets were priced at $12 for an Adult, and $8 for Seniors and Students. After I ordered, the tickets were promptly e-mailed to me. When we arrived for the 5:15 show, we chatted with the attendant who was pretty friendly and cool. An afternoon showing of a Carlos Santana documentary was finishing up, so that gave us time to wander through RAW's three art galleries to check out the exhibits. We didn't buy anything from the concession stand, but they have quite a few beers and candies for you if you want something. Our theater seats were comfortable and the sound and picture were great for our movie. We were two of only eleven patrons for the 5:15 showing, and that was a shame because the concert film was an exhilarating joy to watch. RAW is quite a place- a nice combination of the arts and cinema, so if that's your thing you'll probably enjoy their monthly cocktail parties.”
