I was working that night at a hotel. I was a bellboy. I was at the front desk and the parking lot attendant came in and mentioned to me how disappointed he was that he had to be working and had to miss the final episode of MASH. The girl working at the front desk overheard this and gave us a key to an unoccupied hotel room so we could watch it there. She said she would call the room if anyone checking in needed help with luggage. The parking lot attendant raised the parking lot gates so he didn't have to be there. We got a couple drinks from the bar and took them to the room and watched there.

I smoked my first cigarette at ten
And for girls, I had a bad yen
And I had quite a ball
When I was young

London calling to the imitation zone
Forget it brother, you can go it alone
London calling to the zombies of death
Quit holding out and draw another breath

They got Chuck Berry up in outer space
Singing Johnny B Good
Down on earth he's doing time
Said he'd pay those taxes if he could
It's all so complicated now

We've got nothing better to do. Than watch TV and have a couple of brews.
That soundtrack is epic! And the movie is a must see. "The more you drive, the less intelligent you are."

I call you on the telephone
My voice to rough with cigarettes
I sometimes feel I should just go home
But I'm dealing with a memory that never forgets

Repo Man (1984)
Why? It's totally original, weird, funny, great characters and dialogue.
Seen it at least 50 times.

A lot of my favorites have already been posted but a couple that I’d add to the list are.. Blade Runner, A Clockwork Orange, and Pulp Fiction.
A Clockwork Orange would be in my top 5 favorite movies.

Dramatic but in a horrible way. I was 8 years old and watching the Indy 500 and Sweed Savage crashed his car and it burst into flames. One of his crew members ran to help and was hit by a firetruck and died instantly. Savage initially survived the crash but died in the hospital later.

as soon as I read Bonnie Raitt my heart froze. I have never had personal contact with her. The closest i came was in Denver CO. She was playing a gig in of all places downtown Denver for a street music festival. It was the end of her set and the crowd had thinned down quite a bit. I was center in front of her dancing In my absolute Glory. I LOVE HER I love everything about her. I have been a fan of hers since the 70's. And have seen her the most times of any artist Period. Which says a Lot.
I have to google and see if she has a biography or documentary about she and her life. Having that happenstance convo with Ian McLagan was a welcome respite from touring and being on the road away from home and friends for him too. Good eye for Ian there that sounds like it was an awesome experience 🙂
I didn't get to talk to Bonnie Raitt when she was there but everyone who did said she was really nice.

I was working in a hotel in 1982 and Bonnie Raitt and her band and road crew stayed there. I saw them checking in at the front desk and I saw Ian McLagan, the keyboard player for The Faces, The Small Faces and the Rolling Stones on their 78 and 81 tours. I went up to him and said I was a big fan and asked him for his autograph. He said he was happy that I recognized him. He said "It boosts me ego." Several hours later it was 11PM and I was done working and ready to leave the hotel and I saw Ian walking into the hotel bar by himself. He saw me and asked me if I was still working. I said no I'm done for the day. He said: Care to join me in the pub for a few drinks? I did and talked and drank with him until the bar closed at 2AM.
