CapMac September General Meeting - The Austin Groove

Thursday, September 11 , 2003
7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Capitol Macintosh and MusicTexas.Com present a special screening of the new feature documentary film The Austin Groove.

Produced by Doug LaRue and Laura Rojo of Austin-based Glaze Studio using Apple's Final Cut Pro on a dual 1 GHz PowerMac with 1.5 terabytes of disk space, this full length documentary features interviews and perspectives on 30 years of Austin music history. The Austin Groove portrays the current state of living in "The Live Music Capital of the World" as a independent musician, and illustrates the magic and the challenges found within such a huge, diverse music community.
