Shame about the Louisville Palace, Mike, that's a real bummer. On a brighter note, the Castro is still owned by the original family that built it in the 20s!

Though I understand that it would be great if they could do movies and concerts, I hardly call that they now hold a bunch of concerts there a "shame." It's a gorgeous place with great sightlines, good enough sound, and is in the sweet-spot as far as size goes for the area.

Ah, definitely didn't mean to insult! I suppose more where I'm coming from is that LiveNation is a massive nationwide company, and though I'm not talking smack about them or their ethics, I typically will always root for the underdog and always prefer to support my local indie venues, theatres, shops etc. Hope no offense was taken!

Actually, they don't do a "bunch" of concerts either. Maybe1 or 2 a month and they are priced high. They do more corperate events than anything else, which is a shame. It's a historical landmark and should have more events for the general public.

And I'll correct myself on the last show I saw there. It was still Creature, but it was in 2009 during a summer series called "Monsters" in which they showed 10 monster movies from that era, including all the Universal Monsters.

None at all! And I agree whole-heartedly about not supporting LiveNation vs locals, I'm just excited to get to see so many shows in that beautiful room now. I came off much harsher than I intended to.

And to TattooMike: It's going to take time to build traction on filling that place in Louisville. A great manager could handle both shows and movies, which it appears they do not have.

These are great!

Ken, is there a Warriors print coming up next week?

Any chance of getting a poster buddy for a Robocop print?

Wow, that theatre is absolutely gorgous. Which we had theatres like that left in the UK.

Picked this up tonight! Great movie and top notch theater.
Saw the Warriors print for next week..looks really nice, it's done by Grzegorz Domaradzki.
Here's the Robo Cop variant of 50

As benny said, got a sneak peak of this one last night at the Robocop screening ... looks fantastic!

Excited to see more work from Grzegorz Domaradzki, and at the Castro!
