. My father being the clubs attorney and friend of Pat Kirkwood. I remember at around age 8, my dad would take my brother and myself to the club with our Cellar shirts on and let us run amok. I also remember being paid $5 to play drums with the now ZZ Top and had to play standing up, too short to sit on the stool. Later in life (1980) played drums in my own band "The Ejectors", check out the song "Hydrohead" on Youtube. My cousin who lives in Long Beach opened up The Cellar, in tribute.
There is a screening of the feature-lenght film at the FW Downtown Public Library Sunday, November 21st at 2:00 followed by a panel discussion. Hope you can be there!
Brandon, This is Linda Waring, Most famous for being the drummer of the Ft. Worth Band, Nitzinger. I remember the night she got the scar on the bridge of her nose. It was at the 1972 Sunshine Festival north of Ft. Worth. Nitzinger was playing, the wind caught one of her cymbals and it hit her right across the bridge of her nose... she continued to play, not missing a beat, bleeding profusely!! I was standing about 12 feet to her left... She is one of the best female drummers EVER!!
I think Miles did a really great, professional job on this flick, can't wait to see the whole thing. I played the early set for about 6 to 7 months from 68 thru spring of 70. It was a great time, still really miss it when Halloween and New Years Eve comes around. No big secret, it was just so much damn fun. Who would have thunk it in Fort Worth, Texas of all places?
Giles..this was such an interesting piece of music history. Thanks to you and the many others who gave their time in putting it together. I hope there is more to come soon!
thank you Giles for that fine teaser ....you are the man...incredable production.....I am so glad I made it throuugh my bypass...I would hvae hated to miss this film....It gives me reason to recover so I can see the rest ....thank you for your tremendously hard work and expertiese.....Lil Paul
This is a great start to a very important film for so many of us from that period. The Cellar had the best musicians and best music ever! Great work!!!!!!!!
John has been ill, so we've had a difficult time getting together. He will be in the final cut. I've done several new interviews, including Bugs.

I brought back the Cellar in Ft. Worth in 1998 on W Berry but it was never like the old Cellar.
