Chicago- Grafitti Bridge Movie Party

Greetings,

Sorry it's taken me so long to get this up as I just got back from vacation.

Anyway, once again I'd like to invite you all to come out for Grafitti Bridge on the big screen (well 15'). We had a good time watching Purple Rain and some of the extras. We'll do the same with Grafitti Bridge. Granted it's no Purple Rain, but it'll be a good time to come out and hang with the fams.

I live in McKinley Park (35th & Damen) near the Orange Line. If you're interested in coming
please email me at boshtalk@aol.com for the exact address. Feel
free to bring a friend. My house isn't that big, but there's plenty
of room in the back yard.

I have movie parties like this throughout the summer and have come
up with a small FAQ (see below). If you have any further questions
post here or
email me.

Grafitti Bridge
Friday September 10th
Music starts up at 6:30pm
Start watching the extras at dusk.
Movie starts around 8:30pm


Hope to see you there,

Dave

FAQ-BACK YARD THEATER: Purple Rain: 20th Anniversary Edition

Q. Should we bring blankets or lawn chairs to sit in while watching
the movies?
A. Yes, my back yard is teeming with grass crabs and biting snails.
Luckily the snails are deathly afraid of lawn chairs, and mostly
afraid of blankets.


Q. What about the grass crabs?
A. If you don't look at them and pretend they aren't there they will
get offended and leave.


Q. How much does this cost?
A. No charge. "Speak Friend and Enter."


Q. Will food be provided?
A. I'll supply the movie, the Grill and the meat (and veggie
burgers). If you want to bring side-dishes, snacks or drinks, feel
free. There is a grocery store and 6 carry-out restaurants within a
block of my house for your victual pleasure. I have several tables
set up if needed.


Q. What about booze?
A. Though there's a convenience store next door, they have no booze,
however there's a pub down the block with carry-out. There's also a
Jewel next to the El-Stop (10 minute walk). Get your fade on, just
don't get faded.


Q. What time should I arrive?
A. Well, no earlier than 6:30 and no later than 8:30. We'll fire thegrill up and play some tunes around 7pm. Feel free to pick up food
and bring with.


Q. How can I get there?
A. You can always find parking within a block of my house. It's a
safe neighborhood, I'd let my sister walk to the store naked in the
middle of the night, clothed only in hundred dollar bills and not
worry a bit. The 35th & Archer Orange stop stop is a 10 minute walk.
Hop on the bus and it's a 3 minute walk.
Fly Casual,

Bosh

I was planning to come, but I have had a fever for the past three days and like a MORON I've been going in to work ANYWAY.

I'm afraid that in my weakened condition I could NEVER withstand a screening of Graffiti Bridge! That might require hospitalization.

Sorry...

BUT!

Please do an Under the Cherry Moon party next. I'll be there!

Have fun tonight.
