71 Couples.
If someone would have asked me to make a bet for how many couples would attend The Art Cinema's 2nd annual Valentine's Event, I would have said optimistically 50. A pie in the sky number.
I wasn't even close, folks.
There will be several reports covering this incredible night for the ages, a lot of pics, and hopefully many contributions from reporters (veteran and new alike) on their take on this evening. I my 25+ years in this thing of ours, I have never seen a night like this. And if I wasn't there in person, I would not believe what you would have told me.
Stay tuned over the next several days for some incredible reports. I am heading out of town this morning for my day gig, but will be back late tonight, and we will begin this rodeo.
A special thanks to all the great people I met on Saturday night... I made it a point to introduce myself to every couple who came in for the meet and greet portion of the evening from 6:30 to 7:30. I have rarely seen a happier, more excited group of people in the scene. And no matter what their expectations were coming into the evening, I am sure they were blown out of the water once they walked up the stairs to the balcony.
I need your reports, ladies and gentlemen. Between the 71 couples, and close to 75 singles who attended, there are some incredible tales to tell.
Please submit your reports directly to The Good Doctor at emiliolizardo1@gmail.com. Put in the subject line "Art Cinema Valentines", and fire off your report. It can be as short or as long as you wish. I am in particular looking for couple's reports, and their take on the insane scene in The Art Cinema's balcony and main floor.
Put fingers to keyboard folks... This will be a lot of fun.
Thanks,
Doc
