ABOUT time! All of the footage and photos are in for.....now. But we are gonna do this thing called "Buildings of Broadway." Tickets go on sale Dec. 15th. This has been an experience. My favorite aspect of this project was that when I'd be out and they knew who I was and said, "You should talk to this person..." and I would nod and smile. I knew I was on to something. I know that we aren't going to be able to cover everything that has happened downtown in 50 plus years in a 70-80 minute documentary. I am not a historian by any means, I'm just curious. The biggest fear of a project like this is that we didn't cover everything, but after stressing about it I'd rather have people engage it in their own way. The collection of stories that "Buildings of Broadway" has become, is only a starter that has no end in sight. And I like it. I can't pinpoint what came over me to wonder about downtown Albert Lea, but something did, and I'm glad it did. This is where I'm from. Plain and simple. "Buildings of Broadway," is a collection of stories of what downtown Albert Lea was, I had no idea as a child what downtown meant to meant to Albert Lea. Today which is a Friday, we filmed a car once owned by slugger Reggie Jackson cruising Broadway. To me, that's cool. People always ask me,"How you doing?' and I will always respond with "living the dream," and I can say that I am. "Buildings of Broadway" is living it's dream as well. Thank you all for checking out our blog, that is approaching 1000 hits. Thank you and remember to buy a ticket for the show. December 15th. Where? Coming soon.. Take care and hope all is well.
