Okay, so I'm back doing a regular gig at the local arts center and I'm over there yesterday moving speakers and amps in and I look up and see a huge video projector chained from the ceiling. On talking to the owner of the spot it turns out it's a top-of-the-line auditorium video projector from the mid-90s that my man aquired somehow and he intends to show movies two nights a week. Immediately I think of preceding my Sunday 'Rhythm Method' gig with a house culture related movie screening. I can think of some, but I want to ask you the people of the DHP what movies you would screen in there in the early part of an evening. Choices can be wide ranging, but my goal is to convey house culture in some form. Movie buffs?

"The Freshest Kids" directed by QD3 (Quincy Jones' son)

It's about breakdancing and it's got some of the illest dancing I've ever seen on film. It recently came out on DVD too. We played this on the TVs at Bang The Party for about 6 months. since all the breakers were invariably dancing to faster old school beats, their dancing would often fall right on-beat with the house sounds playing in the club.
