I was a Roxy Regular, 6th row Roxy. The LAST theater in Toronto where you could smoke! Obviously was part of the RHPS crowd. Helps when you live a couple blocks over...In the video, you walk all the way to Donlands also. That is where I lived (Al, you may remember from Harbinger days). I was back in the spring of 2011. It is actually amazing how LITTLE has changed along there. Except that there is a friggin Tim Hortons in place of the Roxy, But little else has cjanged....

Thanks for the Roxy memories. We enjoyed your music. First heard you on Neil Young's LWW site!

Glad you enjoyed it. It was a great time .99¢ movies, crowd reactions, part of a culture. Are you in Toronto?

I got so many wonderful vibes from seeing this footage: :14 Bob Dylan; 1:33 classic 50-60s movie theatres--they sounded great in mono, too; 1:35 my beloved Fahrenheit 451 (love you bunches, Ray!); 2:33 The Beatles-Hard Day's Night--or The Poppees "Somebody Loves You/You'd Never Leave"; 2:47 Woody Allen's depiction of lonely New York. No student, artsy fartsy stuff here, this is all good stuff; thanks a million for posting and for the good vibes. Encore, encore!
