It's beautiful and the garage door is open. And it's the Good Doctor's birthday. And I'm watching "The Sunshine Makers". Why not stop by and impress me with your nuanced understanding of Hunter's early work or perhaps the ins and outs and what-have-yous of Orange Sunshine? Or just remind me there are still people to fall in love with in this dark, dark world? Come shake me into shivers and I'll do the same for you! Or just buy some tacos and beer and continue.

EL ZORRO TACO TRUCK is here from 5pm to 8pm TONIGHT July 18th!!! Come get some of Willie's fantastic tacos and wash them down with 45 gallons of beer per taco. And then tip Bucky like you're a King and he's a lowly little pauper or whatever analogy will get the most tip out of you. DADDY NEEEDS $$$!!

Don't let the crummy weather stop you from coming to tonight's screening of THE CATHEDRAL OF NEW EMOTIONS that we're hosting here at IBW LODGE #1 with our friends at @bucketoblood. One of the most surreal, psychedelic and truly cosmic animated features ever made, German director Helmut Herbst's THE CATHEDRAL OF NEW EMOTIONS follows a commune of Berlin stoners and intellectuals who get set adrift in space in 1972 in a packing container clutched in a giant flying hand. A true hallucinogenic Space Freakout if there ever was one: imagine Ralph Bakshi animating an R-rated version of John Carpenter's DARK STAR, or the cartoon equivalent of Can's "Ege Bamyasi." One of the rarest tiles in world animation and never before officially released on physical media, CATHEDRAL has been newly restored from the original camera negative and sound elements by Deaf Crocodile. In German with English subtitles. Come join us anytime after 7:30 pm where prog and space fuzz music and FREE HOT DOGS cooked and cured RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR UNBELIEVING EYES on the UNHOLY, UNRULY HOT DOG MACHINE as well as other surprises. Bucket O Blood will have some other Deaf Crocodile releases and Blu Rays available for sale as well. See you tonight!

BIG WEEK at IBW LODGE #1!! TONIGHT is TUESDAY TRIVIA NIGHT. Mr. King has a BIGLY ANNOUNCEMENT to benefit all you trivia-heads with all your winnings. We've had a pretty intense and heady competition going on these past few weeks and it all may come to a VIBRANT and EXCITING night for the history books TONIGHT. DON'T MISS IT! Wednesday July 16th we've got TWO fantastic events: IBW BOOK CLUB is meeting to discuss "THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER". And because I'm a dumb-dumb and double-booked, THE BOOK CLUB STARTS AT 6PM!!! Sorry, I'm a jerk and a miscreant and a flake and baddy. Say terrible things about me, but make sure you're here at 6pm for the book club. AT 8PM, we get the PROG ROCK started and the UNHOLY HOT DOG MACHINE rolling for an 830 or 9pm start time to one of the great lost classics of German animation, "THE CATHEDRAL OF NEW EMOTIONS". Don't miss this brain bending excursion into the slippery arm pits of the strange and unnerving. This is a one-time shot here folks, this official screening won't happen again. NO EXCUSES, JUST BE HERE! Friday, July 18th - EL ZORRO TACO TRUCK from 5pm - 8pm. Eat tacos, drink beer, tip Bucky (that's me!) he needs the money!!
