There’s a couple of rare opportunities to see Almost Famous this week if you live in the Seattle or Los Angeles area… Almost Famous will be showing at Seattle’s Triple Door on Monday, July 29th (tomorrow!) as part of their Movie Mondays series. $3 gets you a seat and a drink. More details over at the Triple Door’s site. Not to be outdone, The Arclight in Sherman Oaks will also be showing the film on July 30th. Tickets are available over on their official site.
We are back today with a new addition to the site. This is Cameron’s 1976 Peter Frampton Rolling Stone cover story entitled, Year of the Face.
Cameron interviews Roger McGuinn for the June, 1973 issue of Creem magazine. Topics include The Byrds, Bob Dylan, Gram Parsons and much more. Happy Sunday reading!
In conjunction with the release of James Ponsoldt‘s new coming of age film The Spectacular Now, there’s a unique opportunity to see other classic coming of age films on the big screen. This includes two of Cameron’s films (Almost Famous and Say Anything…), along with Richard Linklater’s Dazed and Confused and John Hughes’ The Breakfast Club.
Almost Famous will be showing at Brewvies Cinema Pub in Salt Lake City, Utah. The special free showing is being coordinated by the fine folks at City Weekly.
Cameron chats with singer/songwriter/guitarist Joe Walsh in this February, 1975 for Rolling Stone. This was just ten months before Walsh would join the Eagles (replacing Bernie Leadon). They discuss Joe’s history, his early exit from Kent State, The James Gang and much more.
