UNDERCURRENTS 2012 – Highway 5400: the Fort WeeTube Story

It’s late, and I’m fading fast as I sit down to pound out this, my final Undercurrents 2012 post.  I have my Jamesons and some tater chips to fuel me as I go, so here’s hoping I stay awake for the entire post.  If not, don’t worry, I’m fairly certain it won’t impair the quality [...]

UNDERCURRENTS 2012 *** Bonus Valentine’s Post ***

Saw a couple of shows at the GCTC tonite, but in a rather relaxing twist, I won’t be reviewing them just now.  Granted, one of them was LIVE FROM THE BELLY OF A WHALE, which I saw and wrote about last week.  And the other was WEETUBE 5400, which premiered at the festival tonite, and [...]

UNDERCURRENTS 2012 – And Then it Falls Open

Whee!  Day Two of Undercurrents already!  Okay, okay, it’s, like, day six as I write this, but I’ve only been twice, so shaddup.  I’d already seen BLUE BOX and LIVE FROM  THE BELLY OF A WHALE in a previous post I’m too lazy and shiftless to link to just now, so you might have to [...]

UNDERCURRENTS 2012 – Blue from the Belly of a Box

There’s still, like, more than four whole stoopid months until FRINGE, did you know that?  Depressing, right?  It just all seems so hopelessly far away…even that new Spider-Man trailer is no help.  The Lizard isn’t even wearing his god-damned lab coat!  That’s what makes him THE Lizard, instead of just A Lizard!  Oh, woe!  *sigh* [...]

Undercurrents – My Last Day

It’s almost 130 in the morning as I start to write this.  I just drank more than I should have, missed my last bus and had to walk 45 minutes home. I really, really should not still be up writing (and drinking), as I have to be at work at 8 in the morning. But [...]

Undercurrents – My Third Day

After a whirlwind visit to Chapel Perilous over the night, involving a half-litre of rum and a comfort-spree of dvd shopping this afternoon (got me Fuller’s NAKED KISS and SHOCK CORRIDOR, and ICE PIRATES, among others), it was that special time again…time to head out to the GCTC for my third day of the UNDERCURRENTS [...]

Undercurrents – My Second Day

Had a down day yester, watched me some movies to try and catch up on my already way behind attempt at 211 movies in 2011.  Did PUFNSTUF from 1970, the movie that introduced the mad genius of Sid and Marty Krofft to the world, thus creating a good part of my original childhood (as opposed [...]

UnderCurrents – My First Day

It’s almost 1:30 am, I just got home, and I’m trying to force myself to drunkenly write about several shows I saw tonite before I pass out.  Is it June already? No, Virginia, Fringe is not here yet, but UNDERCURRENTS, our new little Winter mini-Fringe, is!  It started yesterday, but tonite was my own first [...]
