Score on the mask, Bong- ! Would enjoy seeing your set up sometime. Did the light work out? Anyway, Look for a 30'x 15' x 12'h. peaked thatched tiki-ish bar in Windtalkers. They called me up (a year and a half ago) on a Thursday saying they needed this bar built. The catch was they were moving production from Hawaii to Zuma beach over the weekend and needed it to shoot on the beach Monday eve. Bamboo Ben said, No worries! They sent a driver down on Fri. with a wadd of loot and I (solo) wacked it out. The funny thing is that it was a week after I moved into the old Von Dutch hut in H.B. and all the Red Neck auto freaks were raising on me about what I do. That monday was a riot when the MGM Big rig filled half the lot for the pick up! All the red necks were scratching their heads in awe! Bob and Le Roy are the coolist. I can't go there without spending an hour chatting about them hanging back in the old days with my Grandfather. They used to carve (and drink) together in the S.A. river bed all the time.I'll stop babbeling now..... |
