Producers Jeff Krulik and John Heyn are kicking off the 25th Anniversary of Heavy Metal Parking Lot with an appearance on Last Call With Carson Daly on NBC tonight (1:35/12:35 Central early Wednesday morning December 8th). For more info visit NBC.com.
Krulik comments: "John Heyn and I will talk about our plans for a nationwide tour, and the new documentary Heavy Metal Picnic, about the mid '80s field party that was dubbed Maryland's Woodstock."
Produced and presented by the team behind cult hit, Heavy Metal Parking Lot (Jeff Krulik and John Heyn), Heavy Metal Picnic is a celebration of mid-80s Maryland rock and roll and heavy metal, by those who lived - and survived - it.
The film focuses on the 1985 Full Moon Jamboree, a weekend field party bacchanal that took place at The Farm, home to a cast of colorful characters who lived and partied alongside unamused neighbors in the McMansions of Potomac.
The Full Moon Jamboree, an affair so raucous that it made the evening news, was the farm party to end all farm parties, and much of it was recorded using a home video camera and a stolen CBS News microphone swiped from the Reagan Inauguration earlier that year.
Twenty-five years later, we revisit the scene and meet people behind the party, as well as the musicians who performed there, including mid-Atlantic doom metal icons ASYLUM.
Details will soon be available in regards to screenings of the film in 2011. Check out a trailer below and find out more about Heavy Metal Picnic at this location.
