Hal Blaine/Wrecking Crew Reunion and Film 6/28

[Donn Bennett]

Drummers,

 This goes out to all of you in the Los Angeles area. 

 Here is an extremely rare chance to see the legendary Hal Blaine and the
Wrecking Crew perform live.  These legendary musicians are responsible for
literally thousands of the most popular songs of our time. It is extremely
rare to see these legends perform live as most of the magic they created was
done in the confines of Los Angeles recording studios during the 1960s and
70s. In addition you will see a new documentary about these music legends
directed by Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco's son Denny Tedesco. If
that weren't enough the entire event is FREE! That sounds like a pretty good
time to me!!

I'm afraid I will not be able to make it to the event ( I saw the film in
Seattle, It's fantastic!)  but I encourage everyone to make plans to attend
. All the details are below. Please send my best to Hal and all the gang.

Have Fun!!

SeeYa,

Donn Bennett

Hi Wrecking Crew supporters!

After playing to great response at SXSW, Buffalo, Nashville and Seattle Film
Festivals (see reviews <http://www.wreckingcrew.tv/reviews.html> ), we are
thrilled to announce that "The Wrecking Crew" documentary will have it's Los
Angeles premiere on June 28th, 2008. The film will play under the banner
"Movies That Matter" as part of the Grand Performances Program in downtown
LA at 350 S.Grand. Ave. 

This is a free, outdoor festival-style screening under the stars. You can
bring a picnic, deck chairs, blankets and even white wine, they don't allow
red wine as it can stain the granite in the Festival area. If a picnic is
not your speed, there are some great restaurants in the area. Even though
tickets are free, please make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to eat
and find a place to sit. Don't forget a chair or blanket. 

We are also very honored to announce that the presentation of the film will
be followed by a live performance by Wrecking Crew alumni Hal Blaine
(drums), Carol Kaye (electric bass), Don Randi (piano) and Chuck Berghofer
(upright bass). Vocals by Julia Fordham and other guest aritsts. 


PLEASE HELP US SPREAD THE WORD. ITS VERY IMPORTANT THAT MUSICIANS AND MUSIC
LOVERS KNOW OF THIS EVENT. THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
