Has anyone reached out to Verizon to see what's going on? We're paying for 5G service and so... are not getting what we paid for. I'll be calling in the AM, simply curious if someone has beat me to it?

You just unlocked a memory I forgot I had.

Remember their "cans" film festival? You would bring in cans of food like corn and stuff and they'd give you a ticket for a movie. We didn't have much money growing up and I'll always remember my mom taking me and my brother there for a special day. Damn dude.

Moxie is awesome. There's a similar place called bookhouse in joplin. Combination pub and indie theater.

Forever in our heads. I hope the marketing geniuses that came up with it are in hell right now

I remember having to eat chikfila a few times because it was next to.the theater and we had to rush. Back before people went so nuts over it and it was just mediocre fast food.

I can beat that. I saw most of the classic Bond movies at dollar movie marathons at the old Fox theater downtown. Was a treat to go to a play there this winter and see how it was fixed up. I saw empire strikes back at the Tower and once spent all night movie hopping at town and country on n. Kansas before it became the "star trek church" as we used to call it.

Back in the day there were 2 theaters just in the mall, wherenberg (wehrenberg...wehrenberg... ifkyk) and century 21. And then like you said, petite 3 and Fremont too. We had a ton of theaters

Perhaps Lou Whitney of The Morells. They did the song about the original Red’s Hamburg. He was more well known as a producer/engineer. On a side note, he’s in a documentary about Ozarks musicians called The Center of Nowhere that came out in 2020. Pretty cool and easy to catch for free on streaming.

I eat there once a year. Yes I’m keeping the restaurant alive.

Tom Whitlock. You'd know his songs, not his name.

Thats OK I'll take Frankenstein lol. When the internet or power go out next year I'll read. I've heard down town can be finicky

Bill Brown, died in house fire

I’m with you on all those great theaters being gone. I remember seeing the Blues Brothers at the Fremont 3, and so many different episodes of Star Wars silliness at the Battlefield Mall. Sheesh.
Hey you’re missing out on the best option still left in town: the Moxie. I guess it may be still considered “new” because it’s probably only been around for what, 20 years or so? But it’s great. Two theaters, neither are too big, both are comfortable. With beer and wine (so what else do you need?). Interesting movie options that most of the other theaters don’t show.

True story. Sneak Preview, as they were known at the time, opened for a band I was in back in my hippie musician days.

We were all blown away by (Ty?) the bass player and how incredibly good he was.

Country musician Porter Wagner was from West Plains which is almost in the neighborhood.

I'd bet that a look through the history of Ozarks Jubilee on radio station KWTO would yield a lot of information on musicians from this area.
