Better than Something: Jay Reatard/Dry Heat Release Party
We gotta triple dosey for you tomorrow night featuring Better than Something: Jay Reatard documentary, a special live performance from Thee Indoors, and the DVD release party for Dry Heat: Collected Short Films from Reno, NV to kick it all off! Better Than Something: Jay Reatard, is a look into one of the most prolific artist of the last twenty years. The film is an intimate portrait, captured just months before his untimely passing, that brings us incredibly close to Jay’s complicated punk-rock world in Memphis, Tennessee. To sweeten the deal to make it the best event to ever happened ever, Thee Indoors will be playing cover from Reatard’s vast catalogue. Here’s how the night will roll: 6:30pm is the Dry Heat party (with free refreshments and sneak peek!), then 7:30pm is Thee Indoors, followed by Better Than Something. Plan accordingly! Tickets are $5 in advance or $7 at the door.Oh, also, FREE POPCORN!
