Pup Tent is Phil Duarte, Ted Watts and Ben Azzara, three survivors of the 80's and 90's DC music scene. We are in love with 60's garage, Glam , doses of rock-a-billy, no wave, the Kinks, psychedelia, Neil Young, Pere Ubu, the Who and amps that go to 11. Songwriting and improvisation are the food we eat so never expect the same set twice. We have been members of Guilt Combo, Delta 72, Girl Train, Donut Safari, the Burnt Ernies, Tony Perkins and the Psychotics, DCIC, the Caution Curves and more.

Giger Museum & Giger Bar in beautiful Gruyeres, Switzerland.
Larry / USA / 2007
A sardonic story/song by Pierre Bennu illustrates what happens when we pay more attention to the messenger than the message.
This is a man living life by his own right steps. The 'Sand Dancer' (Peter Donnelly) lives at the beach in Brighton New Zealand. Hundreds of people are drawn from all over the world to watch him create vast arts works. He does not use any plotting tools or visual aids. Having a rare abilty to 'see perspective' Peter's masterpieces vanish in an instant,as soon as the tide starts to wash them away.
9:30 pm - HORROR
Cast Shadows in Technicolor / USA / 2007
Filmed in the style of a music video. Inside a mansion, an elderly man passionately narrates "Cast Shadows in Technicolor" for his grandchildren. The story takes place in a deserted town where a greaser saves a girl from zombies. Both worlds merge when the characters enter the mansion. BANG! Grandfather closes his book, leaving the ending for later.

Spine Tingler / USA / 2007
'Spine Tingler: The William Castle Story' chronicles the last great American showman, filmmaker William Castle, a master of ballyhoo who became a brand name in movie horror with his outrageous audience participation gimmicks. In the 1950s and 60s, Castle treated delighted moviegoers to buzzing seats, flying skeletons, luminescent ghosts and life insurance policies. His is a rags to riches tale of a larger than life showman who climbed his way up the Hollywood ladder by reinventing himself as a modern P.T. Barnum, all the while driven by a fear of failure and a longing to be respected among his peers.

Drummer and journalist Alex Daniels, a label-mate of Grindle's on Dischord (Severin), also plays in the band Julie Ocean. Meg Guroff, another journalist, played bass in Church & State (Baltimore).

@ Bertucci’s Restaurant, 21st and Eye St, NW
($10 or free with a film festival ticket)
($10 or free with a film festival ticket)
Propelled by Adam Parker's immensely-likable vocals, Stone Lucy chases a sister muse of Tool and Soundgarden, with a youthful verve and a proggish swagger. Stone Lucy opts for dynamically arranged and challenging song structure with adventurous twists and turns. With no exceptions, Stone Lucy is topically heavy, threads of a tragic tapestry wrenched from some hinted-at personal catastrophe and woven into a sonic assault. Be ready to get emotionally engaged while they rock you off your chair.
