Me again. I was back in San Diego at 32nd Street starting in July of 1975 (for Electronics School). Making my nostalgic rounds of the Rosecrans area I stopped into the theater again … this time it was to see “Tommy”. I felt right at home even though I’d been in Charleston for quite a while before that. The four years since my first visit flew along rather quickly. And by the time the movie came around I was already a big fan of The Who, and practically wore out the grooves on the rock opera dual-album. So seeing the movie was pretty cool at the time, as I quietly hummed along to every song. That deaf, dumb and blind kid sure plays a mean pinball.
As a young submarine sailor and walking up from Sub Base Point Loma, I remember stopping in to the theater in January of 1971. I saw Tora, Tora, Tora (a nice Navy film). Checking out the dates of all of the shows that “neeb” listed confirms that my memory of places and dates hasn’t crapped out yet.
Man, you can sure tell this is a military town. They were showing “MacArthur” in August of 1977, instead of “Star Wars”!!!
