Chariots of Fire
|
IMDB rating: 7.30 Plot: The story, told in flashback, of two young British sprinters competing for fame in the 1924 Olympics. Eric, a devout Scottish missionary runs because he knows it must please God. Harold, the son of a newly rich Jew runs to prove his place in Cambridge society. In a warmup 100 meter race, Eric defeats Harold, who hires a pro trainer to prepare him. Eric, whose qualifying heat is scheduled for a Sunday, refuses to run despite pressure from the Olympic committee. A compromise is reached when a nobleman allows Eric to compete in his 400 meter slot. Eric and Harold win their respective races and go on to achieve fame as missionary and businessman/athletic advocate, respectively. |

Fitz the stocking stuffer! | Dec 22, 2009
As of right now, my wife and I are going to see the Pee-Wee Herman stage show thing and separately see this really great group called The Spires in January. I’m pondering seeing Quasi at Spaceland in February or March, but it’s an hour plus each way and I’m not sure if I’m that into it Awesome as they are that’s a lot of driving.

My friend saw The Chariot with Gojira, and said it was the most intense stage performance he had ever seen. I saw Suffokate last week, and mostly just played a game where I tried to guess where they were going to hit their bass drops during their set. it was pretty fun.
Dec. 26th, going to what’s looking to be an amazing local show. The Descolada Virus, Dismal Lapse, The Kennedy Veil, Aligheri, and The Wrath of Vesuvius, for any Sactown people.
After that, going to BTBAM, Cynic, Devin Townsend Project, and Scale the Summit in January

I don’t have anything coming up… but the kids are begging for Testament, Megadeth, and Slayer next month…. so we’ll see about that.
Leprosy~ you’re gonna LOVE TSO.
Usually I like to have something like a concert to look forward to, but right now I’m good because I’ve been *so* happily busy…. Saw Less Than Jake/ Cage/ The Swellers/ & Fishbone 3 weeks ago; got to finally see Trans Siberian Orchestra right after Thanksgiving; and on Saturday I was at the San Francisco Ballet’s "Nutcracker". It was *wonderful*.
