Take the free corporate foodstuffs and anniversary merch!
We're doing the Bowie show one week from today, with my friend and her family flying down from Seattle to attend with me, Matilda and Jes.
Since it's at the Great American Music Hall, they emailed me their January calendar and I immediately snapped up tickets for this event on January 31st:
SF Sketchfest teams up with the Red Room Orchestra for a special in-person Tribute to Kyle MacLachlan, who is best known for his iconic performance as FBI Agent 'Dale Cooper' in David Lynch's groundbreaking series "Twin Peaks." In what has become a tradition, the Red Room Orchestra will play music from the "Twin Peaks" soundtrack along with selections from some of MacLachlan's other projects including "Blue Velvet," "Dune," "The Doors" and more. In a twist on the festival's typical Tribute format, the event will focus primarily on music, but will also feature surreal interactions and conversation with MacLachlan alongside another special guest from the "Twin Peaks" universe, Carel Struycken, who played the series' inimitable Giant and The Fireman. The Red Room Orchestra, under the direction of Marc Capelle, will feature performances from guests Margaret Cho, Petra Haden, and more.
Red Room Orchestra TWIN PEAKS With Allyson Baker, Tom Ayres, Toby Dammit aka Larry Mullins, Karina Denike, Ben Goldberg, Scott Larson, Beth Lisick, Pete Straus, and Michael Urbano.
I am all about the corporate provided foodstuffs!
Oooh, that is a lot of awesome you have planned for January!
Kyle was also Charlotte York's impotent, mama's boy first husband, which, to be frank, is mostly where I know him from. He did a good job with a very thankless part that many actors would probably feel weird about. Occasionally, I felt bad for Trey, especially once we met his mother.
As for the awesome, you deserve it, Hec. I am looking at ways to get fewer meetings and more awesome in my own life, but Phoenix isn't very cool.
I also look forward to hearing from Shir.
He had a similarly thankless role on Desperate Housewives, didn't he? I don't remember the details, I just remember thinking he did a nice job with a not obviously likable part.
wouldn't surprise me, although I don't really know that one.
I'm not sure when he went from "actor I like because David Lynch" to "actor I like because he's always good in everything", but that was certainly a transition that happened.
Kyle also had a recurring role on How I Met Your Mother.
Showgirls I still have never seen, I just know about by myth and rumor.
HIMYM I do remember him. The Captain? Something like that, to do with boats?
Just been chatting with my boss about how early the party starts. He’s a 45 minute drive away, so he wanted to be sure the times were right before he arranged his day around them. We agreed it’s a weird way to schedule a party.
Company party update: they do have specialty cocktails! Someone is looking out for me.
