CLASSIC CARTOONS CLASSIC CARTOONS

Very busy time for me this week.I’m hosting the John K. Classic Cartoon night, tonight, at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. Don’t miss your last chance to see the 35mm restored POPEYE MEETS SINDBAD print everyone (especially me) is raving about – also 35mm prints of THE GREAT PIGGY BANK ROBBERY (Daffy Duck), SOLID IVORY (Woody Woodpecker), BLIND DATE (Heckle & Jeckle, Jim Tyer), MINNIE’S YOO HOO (Mickey Mouse), and many others, with live commentary by John K. (and sometimes me). Don’t miss it – it starts at 8pm!janet.jpgThursday night I’m the opening act, showing several musical shorts (and cartoons) at the Steve Allen Theatre in Los Feliz. This is an event for Janet Klein and her Parlour Boys who are having a CD release party at 8pm. Janet sings and plays 1920s jazz – she’s got quite a cult following in both Los Angeles and Japan. Her new album is called Living In Sin – and I recommend it (the album, that is). Check out her nifty website.
