Until the Light Takes Us -- black-metal documentary screenings

[Pellaz]

I've been emailing back and forth with Audrey Ewell, one of the directors of this documentary, since they have scheduled an exclusive screening in Atlanta in August, and she kindly provided me with a list of all US screenings so far. I'll copy it below.

The movie itself looks to be pretty interesting, as the co-directors spent two years in Oslo, Norway researching the film and garnering the trust of Varg Vikernes, Fenriz and others.

No way?! I sure hope that Minnesota date gets nailed down. I wonder if my husband has anything to do with that and hasn't let the cat out of the bag yet. Either way, I'd like to check this out!

 

[dcowboys311]

Will be going.

 

[Heavenly Call]

Very interesting. I'll likely hit the Atlanta date as well!

When I saw that a Minnesota date was being worked on, I immediately thought of Nathan.

Tammy, if he isn't involved yet, send me an email or a PM; I'll see if Audrey might want to try booking through him if she's getting static from someone else up there.


With luck, I can get off work a little early and get to this in time.

 

[Palabra de Dios]

I'd love to see it in a theater, man. That'd be great. Don't think I can make the trip from Mississippi for it, though. Gotta be real picky about my trips nowadays (not as much money right now).

 

[Diabolik]

I am planning on going to the Chicago one. Heard about this a few months back. Should be fun.

It is funny....at the Siskel Center where it is at....lots of the upper clas types hang out there because they are supporting the "arts". I went to a screening of "Perfect Crime" by Alex De La Iglesia...a great spanish director. He was there for the night for the US showing of the film. I thought it would be filled with horror fans...nope...all older people with evening gowns, high priced jewelry, and all kissing up to each other. It was funny, this older lady next to me asked if I ever heard of his films....I told her about his past films....she was kind of freaked out.......when Alex De La Iglesia came on stage he was wearing sweat pants and a t-shirt. I was very funny....I think they all thought he would be an artsy type. It was weird to be a in theater of people there to be seen more than watch the film. Odds are the same types will be there for this....this theater draws that crowd out of the word work.

 

[Osiris' Eyes]

Hey...thanks for the heads up. Just bought my tix for the Chicago show...can't wait to mingle with high society.

I was just in Oslo and Bergen, Norway a couple weeks ago...stopped in for a beer at the Elm Street Rock Cafe, said to be the birth place of Black Metal...clearly things have changed since back in the day as it is your regular pub that plays more punk and mainstream metal than anything else. But at least they had the cheapest beers in all of Norway that I could find...roughly $8 for a pint. Most other pubs the beer was $10 and up...yikes!!! Skol!!!

 

[SharkBlack]

Yesterday Today and Tomorrow for me... Plans have been made already... bummer I have to miss this...

That would've been priceless to see!

The Atlanta venue for this, the Plaza Theater, has a dedicated fan-base of its own, but they are not typically the artsy-fartsy types. (THEY go to the LeFont Tara. ) It should be an interesting night, to say the least.

Will be at the August 15th show. Tickets already in hand!

 

[Pellaz]

heh.... Since I'm used to seeing band itineraries posted, I looked at the list and thought "Wow, Atlanta on the 13th and then driving to Albuquerque for the 14th?!
--Oh, wait."

Awesome to hear the advance screenings have sold out, too!

 

[Until]
