It all happens Saturday, August 5th, 2006 - gates at 8:00am sharp. Get there early for the best "movie-watching" parking, or purchase a VIP admission for reserved/preferred parking. 1st band (Couple, a charming four piece indie/powerpop band from Malaysia) at 10:45am, vendors and car show all day long, movies (with authentic vintage movie trailers and cartoons) start at about 9:15pm (Cobra Woman), 2nd movie at about 11:00pm (The Creeping Flesh). 3rd movie at 12:45am (Hard Ticket to Hawaii).

Tix are just $20 each for general admission, or $30 for VIP (includes preferred movie parking, special Hawaiian Lei and refillable VIP brew cup, must be 21 and have photo ID).
If the driver of a vehicle purchases a VIP pass, that vehicle gets preferred parking. The passengers of that car don't necessarily have to buy a VIP pass to sit in the VIP area.

VIP TICKETS ARE PRESALE ONLY! NO VIP TIX AT THE GATE!

Tickets are going fast, advance purchase is highly recommended. Tix are available right now online:

http://www.ticketalternative.com/VenueDetail.aspx?FacilityKey=154

Note: This event will sell out, so buy your tickets early. We normally have room for 1850 cars at the drive-in, but between the car show, the vendor area, the car clubs and the stage area, our capacity will be considerably reduced. The key to not missing out is to bUy YoUr TiCkEtS ToDaY!!

How to best enjoy this unique event:
Plan for an all day, all night tailgate party. Camp style canopies and patio umbrellas are welcome but should be taken down prior to movie time. You are welcome to bring your own food and beverage, or buy delicious food from our vendors and snack bar. Small barbeque grills permitted also. Bring LAWN CHAIRS (very important), hats, sunscreen, blankets, a jacket or sweater (it gets cool in the evening) and a boombox style radio (for the movie sound). We will have a water misting station to help keep cool during the day. No glass bottles, no fireworks and no pets, please. Sorry Fido.

If that's not enough of a party for you...

So this means I finally get to me(et) you!?!?!?!

yep...I think we'll FINALLY meet up in person!

good old Dave will finally trek out of the Mojave Desert and over the Mountains...perhaps the-extra-grande-tiki-man might be there?

I am looking forward to watching Slacktone, Davie Allen, Ghastly Ones, and Vicky Tafoya...all for the first time, for me.

and I hope to run into some of the sg101-ers and cool tikiheads too...

-dp

DP,
you bet I will be there, the only question is weather or not to stay for the B-movies or go to see Pollo Del Mar, and Insect Surfers at the
Purple Orchid in El Segundo????
I'm really torn there.....

some other sg101ers will be there, and tons of tiki central people too.
I can't believe you haven't seen Slacktone, Davie Allen and the Ghastly Ones.

I was just up in your area last Sun, and Mon. it took me 1 hour to get there, and 1 1/2 hours to get back. Sometimes you act like you live in Vegas Wink

sorry man, just trying to get you to some shows.

I thought the 2 different posters were cool, the t-shirt is awesome.

The graphic above is one of the tee shirts. What I meant is that there will be two shirt designs--that one and the Von Franco art work.

"Turn the knob to 10 and break it off!" -Baja Marty

I understood you, what I said was the 2 flyers art is cool,
but the t-shirt picture is even better.
I'm sure the Von Franco one will be too.

I'm kinda reviewed out, and there were many ups and downs about this event,. but over all it was very cool thing, hope it was sucessful enough, and they keep doin it, any reviews or photos from Ran, Clint, Kristena, DP, Jet Powers, would be cool.

Jeff (bigtikidude),

Great to meet you, Clint and others at this fantastic event! Re-deploying to the East Coast has left me tight on time. Maybe I can post some pics later! But those who opted out, Davie, The Ghastly Ones, and Slacktone alone made this event worthwhile, not to mention all the vendors, the cars, the other bands (The Woggles for those of a garage rock orientation!), and the movies. I'm still exhausted!!

After talking to the owners, they hope to make this at least an annual if not semi-annual type of event. Don't miss the next one!

And for those in the Southeast or the means to get here, don't miss Drive-Invasion IX on Labor Day Weekend!! If yer coming, let me know!!

Jet

Jet,
was so cool to stand next to you as your jaw dropped to the floor as you watched Slacktone.
your exhausted?
I went down near San Diego to see Pollo Del Mar and Sand Devils on Fri. nite after work all day, Got home at 3 am, got up at 7 am to get out to the Drive in, left there at 2:30 am got to sleep at 3:30 am, got up at 10 am went down to HB pier for show there, then went drinking after that from 6 pm till midnight. Needless to say I'm totally spent.
good thing I'm off on Mondays to recouperate from all the Weekend
fun.
I'd love to make the Drive Invasion and all other cool shows around the US that I hear about.
Unfotunetly I need to make more money to do that. Or work weeknds, then I would be able to go anywhere? double edged sword aint it?
Have a good gig out there. Saw your clip of El Capitan on the other thread. Good stuff man,
Be cool to see you out here sometime.
