Georgia Theatre: The last marquee

One of my sisters was at The Theatre last night. She took a picture of the marquee because her boyfriend's roommate is in the band.

Indications are that the theater will be rebuilt. It appears the marquee, and perhaps even the outer walls, can be saved.

But if you're ever sitting on a porch in Athens playing trivia, and they ask who played the last show before the famous Georgia Theatre fire of 2009, the answer is Rockinwood.

    I was kind of sad. Then I thought of that warm terrible beer in those giant cups, and I was kind of glad.

    And, somewhere in hell, Satan is waking up with hangover, saying "When was the last time you cleaned those keg lines?"
