My 101 KLOL documentary titled "Runaway Radio" is world premiering at the Sound Unseen music film festival this weekend in Minneapolis! (BUY TICKETS) You can read more in Deadline.
If you're in Texas, you can catch a special screening at the Rockport Film Festival this Thursday on the fest's opening night! (BUY TICKETS)
Heads up to my Central Texas readers, "Runaway Radio" will be playing in Austin on December 9th. (BUY TICKETS) Read more in the Austin Chronicle.
For all of those asking why no Houston screening dates considering we're talking about an H-Town institution? The answer is when it comes to the film festival circuit, we play where we are invited.
For Houston screening dates and streaming info, stay tuned to this blog or Rock101movie.com.
While I have you here, check out the photos from the cast/crew screening of the documentary.
This blog will be on hold as I head to the first two public screenings of the film. Posts will resume next week.
While I'm away, you can still support the Steeleworkers Walk to End Alzheimer's team.
SUMMARY
A legendary Houston, Texas rock radio station broke new records, defined the culture, attracted top music artists all while whipping listeners into a frenzy. Like an out-of-control locomotive, 101 KLOL seemed unstoppable until the government stepped in. What happened to straight-ahead rock radio? Lyle Lovett, ZZ Top’s Dusty Hill, Melissa Etheridge and Sammy Hagar, along with top DJs from across the US, reflect on how radio changed their lives, and why it’s now hard to find rock on the FM dial.
