A Little Pop for a Summer Day....
Oh man I loved that first Phil Seymour album. A couple of amazingly bad videos....particularly Let Her Dance but good to hear...especially on a summer day....

Drive-in Theaters
- My friend Eileen says that the reason I've been so obsessed with drive-in movie theaters is because my parents never took me to one as a kid. She's probably right. She usually is. Reportedly my older sisters went to the drive-in but I have no memory of it. The first time I remember going to the drive-in theater was with Eileen and I think it was the summer before college. I remember eating dried apricots and some kind of warm pop while watching a bad movie with a Cheap Trick song on the soundtrack..... My friend Alice and I were in grad school together in the late 80's outside Detroit. We ended up photographing drive-in movie theaters throughout the midwest as well as brief trips to various other spots. We always said we were going to write a book but we never did. I just dug out the slides I have though and man, there were some great drive-ins!!! It's been twenty years so of course many of these are gone I'd love to hear from anyone if they have drive-in anecdotes or know if any of these are still around. I took some of the photos, Alice took some---I'll do the Lennon/McCartney things and just list us both on all of them. She can always switch the order of names after I die.

How come I don't know this yet it reminds me of my teenage years?
I think teen sensation Drake Bell is this decade's reincarnation of Phil Seymour.

Despite the fact that Phil Seymour is a pop treasure, the "Let Her Dance" video should be studied for its sociological implications alone. I ask you . . . where else can you find, in one place, the world's four worst dancers strutting their stuff with reckless abandon?
