And so it goes...

I haven't written in a while, so let's change that, okay? Kyle and I recently found out the EMP (experience music project) was giving out free tickets to a prescreening of Pirate Radio in a scavanger hunt...if you live under a rock and have no idea what I'm talking about you can look up movie info stuff here, and you can watch the trailer here!

Anyway, here was their FB status update: There is a "Pirate Radio" scavenger hunt happening the next two days. Figure out the clue and you'll find free passes to the prescreener on 11/12. Hint: 10 piers south of where The Beatles stopped to fish during their first World Tour/ X proverbially marks this spot for plundered loot.

Somehow, using our genius minds, we knew that the Beatles had fished out of their hotel room, the Edgewater Inn, and went 10 piers down to pier 57. To avoid spending money on parking, I parked in a passenger wait zone (and luckily no one asked questions) while Kyle ran inside to look for some sort of hint. He didn't really find anything, haha. With the exception of a store entitled Pirate's Plunder! That sounded perfect, so he went inside...and didn't see any indication of anything related to the EMP or Pirate Radio! Feeling discouraged, he walked out of the shop and called me...using my great words of persuasion, he went back in the store and asked if they knew anything about it...turns out, while they didn't really know what was going on, they handed him a ticket, a poster, and a ipod-sleeve that says pirate radio :) Apparently the EMP didn't do a good job of informing them of what to do with the stuff they sent them...haha.

Anyway, this Thursday we get to go to the pre-screening! I'm incredibly excited because Pirate Radio was definitely on my to-watch list...and unfortunately, I can't go and see every freaking movie I want because the theaters are so expensive these days...even matinee is still like $7! So now that we've got prescreener tickets to see Pirate Radio, we can go spend money and see another movie :)
