Last weekend, I was in Hamilton (gosh I love that city, its so beautiful, I wanna live there!) for the Rocky Horror stage show and I met the lovely Richard OBrien who wrote it and acted as Riff Raff in it. He was such a nice, polite man, it was rather surprising. He was there because he thought up the ideas of the Rocky Horror in Hamilton while working at the Embassy Theatre and cutting peoples hair as a barber and going to the Late Night Double Feature Picture Show. Yep, thats where the song came from.
Then we got invited to the afterparty and I ate too much food there. Figures. Whenever theres free food, I eat too much of it.
But all in all, it was so nice to meet the man who made the greatest cult movies of all time possible (in my opinion anyway!)
It was just even better knowing that he really is so nice. I got my 25th Anniversary DVD autographed by him so it was great.
There is a Riff Raff statue erected in downtown Hamilton, where the Embassy theatre once stood and it looks really good! When I get irfanview downloaded on this computer I will resize the pics and get it all posted here. Now all i gotta do is meet Tim Curry and my life is complete
