The most recommend films were cho
sen for the Moonlight showings.
"These are all films that deserve to be
seen on a big screen/' Lords said.
"They're great films in a crowd setting."
Cinema is not the only attraction to
the event. Each screening is preceded
by a performance by a live band. For
the screening of "Jaws" the folk and
bluegrass troupe, the Fiddlin' Big Sue
Band, performed until it was dark
enough to screen the film. Upcoming
musical guests include Beatles cover
band the #9 Band, Brooks Robertson
and Buster B. Jones.
The next two showings, scheduled
for Friday and August 6, are Stanley
Kubrick's political satire "Dr.
Strangelove" and the classic Charlie
Chaplin film "Modern Times." All
showings are at 8 p.m. at the corner of
Broadway and Willamette St. The
event is free to the public, with a sug
gested $2 donation.

Of course, some musicians don'
have to dig too far to find styles tha
suit their purposes. Recent history alsc
has its pleasures, as can be witnessec
on the latest release from former Top
Jimmy & the Idiythm Pigs guitaris
Carlos Guitarlos. Guitarlos has spen
the past few years singing on a Sar
Francisco street comer, and his musii
exudes the grimy, oil-streaked feel tha
such a history might suggest.

Guitarlos is no poet. His lyrics en
compass a range of rock and blues
cliches stretching back 50 years, but
that hardly matters, since the real joy
in his music comes from the presenta
tion. It's not what he says so much as
how is says it and in what context. The
context in this case is a form of rock
with its roots in a number of home
grown American styles. From the Ca
jun romp of the opening track,
"Damn Atchafaylaya," to the soulful
blues ballad, "When the Pain Stops
Killing Me," Guitarlos has a rough yet
fluid vocal delivery which brings
everything together. His distorted,
i trashy guitar-playing often, appropri
l ately, sounds like an extension of his
> voice. While not a perfect album, the
t high points make it well worth the ef
t fort. Guitarlos will be playing at Sam
i Bond's Garage on Saturday, August 14.
And finally something with a bit
t more of a modern flavor to it. Pedro
the Lion's latest release, "Achilles
Heel," is an oddball collection of
indie-pop that sounds oddly like
something I've hear before, but not
anything I can pin down. Their
songs roll out in mellow, melodic
waves, placing atmosphere over
tight arrangements. It's an odd
choice for pop music, but it turns
out to be very rewarding.
The lazy, delightfully inane lyrics
have the same feeling as the music,
falling out of the singer's mouth as if
he just thought of them through
some dazed inspiration. That in itself
would be good enough, but further
analysis reveals even more layers of
meaning and emotional content
within the lyrics with every listen. A
great collection of pleasant, intelli
gent pop music from beginning to
end. The band will play at the WOW
Hall, located at 291 W. 8th Avenue,
at 9 p.m. on August 10.
