...altho' looks like they took the video down ? Hmm. Their premise that America was still more or less still in the 50s until '64 - & then very much not - seems good. It was *my* 1st year of Life...There'll be all the 50th Anniversary stuff - British Invasion & so on...

I'm trying to find a list of the acts that played there; I remember it was like Three Dog Night, Blood, Sweat & Tears, those kind of things. Creedence?

But am unable to view it... Anyone have a 16mm projector and want to set up a viewing? Is it worth anything? I am just curious, enjoying the show!

...that is dead & gone - & that is the over-arching timewarp feeling I got watching the PBS 1964 thing - & LittleSteven remarked on exactly this on his latest show interviewing David Chase...
