- It was one of the first times I ever scored a backstage pass. I wandered into Black Sabbath’s dressing room with my tape recorder and a copy of our local underground paper, the San Diego Door, and asked Ozzy Osbourne for this interview. 1/2
- Those transcendent words and happy/sad melodies will be there for all-time, waiting for each new generation. Mighty love and thanks always to the great Brian Wilson.
- Here's to you, John Mahoney! You make the unforgettable look easy. @johncusack, @IoneSkye1, @canyonjim
- Thanks to everybody for this wonderful 20th Anniversary for Almost Famous!! I'll always remember this moment, just after the last shot in Central Park. With love and huge appreciation for the cast and crew and all our friends...
- Replying to @CameronCroweHe was 24, I was 15. He was talkative and fun and ended our chat with a poignant comment about his own future.
- The famous words rang out: “Elvis has left the building.” It was 1970. Elvis had been on stage 47 minutes. A riveting & deeply goofy performance filled with karate moves. My mom & I drove home from my first concert in stunned silence. #TheUncool BONUS: Rare footage of the show.
00:00 - Where it all began... a cassette of demos from @sgossard and @MikeMcCreadyPJ... then came a package from San Diego. A guy named Eddie had recorded some words and vocals over it. Magic. #30YearsofTen... love live @pearljam!!
- “Fast Times” brought the ache, mayhem & magic of real-life high school to theaters across the country. It felt immediate, vulnerable, & universal. Post premiere, it grew legs through word of mouth. The tears, laughter, checkerboard Vans would live on. #IKnowThatDude #TheUncool
00:00 - The spirits that remain after something magical’s happened, and how you can go back to a place where something amazing occurred, and the feeling’s still in the air. Happy Anniversary “Almost Famous”!
00:00 - from the archives: when the studio refused to release "almost famous" under the original title "untitled"... @jimmyfallon sent these ideas.
- Happy to report there is more of him throwing Jethro Tull records around like Frisbees, and dancing to Iggy at the radio station. Next cut, it's all going in, @JasonIsbell.
