It is just a day for me..
Some milestones I do note. I recently passed the number of years, months and days that my mom lived.

Yesterday was the 50th anniversary of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Question: Did you ever go to the theater to watch it, and did you participate with the audience?

I never have but my wife did when she was at college. She said it was a wild funny experience.

Way back when, I went a few times to the midnight show at St. Marks Place in NYC on Friday nights. Didnt participate but had tons of fun.

I don’t think I’ve ever watched the whole movie. Maybe pieces and parts but not the whole movie.

It was a thing back in the day. Fridays at midnight, everyone dressed up, went to the theatre, and got up on stage. Usually after inhaling a good amount of cannabis was required to get in the swing.

It’s a different experience when you see it with a participating audience. People were pretty innovative. 😂

Hmm 73 74..
I was working full time, commuting 35 miles each way, living in a small canyon in a national forest, not great tv reception, very active in the Labrador club and dog shows many weekends, raising and training labradors.. This wouldn't have been part of our lifestyle, I guess.
I am sure it was great fun.

Yes, many times in the mid-1970's when we lived in Tampa. Bigdog had a doper buddy who roped us into going at midnight on Saturdays as Maris said. I couldn't use marijuana, of course, because I was a federal agent by then. We didn't dress up, but we did sometimes take water pistols to squirt into the audience for the rainy scenes, and we took old playing cards to throw into the air when Tim Curry sang the song about cards for happiness and cards for pain. Sometimes we took toast to also throw into the air. And of course we all flicked on our Bic lighters when Brad and Janet sang their moving duet: "There's a Light."
Ah, good times. And come to think of it, we did just watch it 75 years later this past summer when we found it was on the video menu in our cruise cabin on the way back from Greenland. We sang all the songs, of course, and also danced to The Time Warp" song, albeit in geriatric fashion.
