1. Heading in, the view of Denali out of the plane’s window. Insane.
2. The sold out Chronic Town screenings. It seemed like everyone in town came out to support and enjoy the film.
3. Meeting the locals, the students, and the professors who helped make the film. It was truly a community effort.
4. Talking with Adam, the owner of the Blue Loon. He told me stories about shopping at pawn shops with Bo Diddley, hosting Wilco’s pre-Lollapalooza rehearsals, and the Indigo Girls rocking the venue with just two voices and two guitars. (More on IG soon. Awesome rumors!)
5. Riding around town with Tom, Lauri, Brady, Mike and Carol. Five great and wildly one-of-a-kind rockers.
Our crazy visit made the local paper, twice! Articles here and here.
THINGS I DIDN’T DO:
1. Take enough photos.
2. Go into the wild.
Next time.
