Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - May 16, 1973, Winnipeg, Manitoba
Winnipeg free press wednesday May by Andy Kluen practicably everyone has at least a couple of pet peeves. Personally speaking if there s one thing which i really detest it s standing in line. I can t imagine anything which could possibly equal the boredom brought about As a result of spending up to two hours waiting in line to get into a movie or a pub. Unfortunately standing in line has become the Rule rather than the exception for Many local activities. It s a rare occasion when you can find a seat in a pub with out being forced to stand around and almost any movie Worth seeing usually includes a lengthy wait in a line of people blocks Long. I lately i be noticed that standing in line has become a prerequisite of sorts at everything from Assiniboine Park s tropical House to Bowling alleys. It is becoming increasingly obvious that there is either in extreme shortage of things to do in Winnipeg or else everyone is flocking to the tame events. Of Well there re always drive in movies at least in this instance you can sit rather than stand in line. Short stuff As anyone who has attempted to pass through United states immigration lately will Tell you Border Crossings Hava become an extremely Haz ardous affair for Many Young people. Almost any Long haired Man is usually forced to empty his pockets and a balt to a rather thorough search before he is allowed to enter the . Many Young people Are treated practically like criminals which has got to be the most Gross example of Over generalization i be heard of in quite some time. All i can add is that if you plan to. Visit the ., be prepared. Would t you know it both the Rock and Roll revival and Duke Ellington s concert have been scheduled for the same evening Friday May 25. I know a lot of peo ple who would like to take in both shows but now they la be forced to choose Between the two. Camp Robertson is currently looking for a number of Young people interested in summer work at its Camps for children aged nine to 13.

Be watching for the movie version of journey through the past a film by and about Winnipeg s Neil Young. It should be in town within the next few months. Come to think of would t it be Nice if it had its Cana Dian premiere Here the readers write dear Andy first of All i d like to say that i follow your column regularly and always enjoy it. However i want to take Issue with what you said recently in regard to Csc s inner ear program. I listen to Many such program like major progression and Rupert land Roc slide and my opinion is that while Ken Fraser definitely plays Good music he is not a Good Host. His style is stilted and he offers no comment on any of the records. I would much rather listen to Lee major and Jim kale of major progression since they play equally Good music and also provide background information and comments. They Are Superb hosts.
