Drive in Theaters




Remember those?

Did anyone else get excited when you passed by and could see the movie playing on the screen?

I've never seen one of these

there still are some, jsut not many. the town in texas i moved one has an operational one.

Cassete Tapes, Perhaps VHS, Turntables.( It is sad that the youth of today have nothing but MP#'s!)

I still get excited when I see them! There's one not too far from my house. It's only open for a few months out of the year. I should try to go this summer, because it's cheaper than going to the regular theater, and much more fun.

Thanks for reminding me!

ahhh drive ins

My 15-year-old niece saw these in my apartment and didn't know what they were:

Ok, those aren't just albums, they are 45s! Did you tell her that you need a special attachment to be able to play them on the regular record player?

Instead they'll know this.

SO glad I was a child of the 70's and 80's

Jesus Mary and Joseph! I was freakin 14 years old when PR hit Girl, I could be your dad! !!!!!

Drive in Theaters were big lots with a giant movie screen and you would drive your car in, park and then hook up these little speakers to your windows and enjoy the movie

Gosh, that brings back so many memories

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Yep...I told her. She asked me if they were "baby records"

Did anyone have a tv that had to "warm up"



My mom put one of those tvs in my room when I was little. Soul Train came on at 12. I had to turn it on at 11:50

I totally remember when Michael Jackson was a black man and not a white woman!

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

He was great.

During moving to our new house, my son saw me packing my 300+ Prince tapes. He'd never seen it in his life and could not think of a function for it

applekisses said:

OK, how many of you refer to CDs as albums? I totally do and people look at me like what is an album?. That is how you can identify the generations Hell, I still remember 8 tracks!

Imago said:

I still listen to Michael all the time, and at one point my son thought Michael Jackson was his Dad.

I think the youngins'll know him, like we know Elvis.....or whoever.
