The World Premiere

Well, the first ever public screening of Thrash Bus II took place on Saturday night, November 11th, 2006. Held in the house of Kelvin and Jenny Street, in Toodyay WA, about an hour from Perth, the screening was held to celebrate the impending wedding of Wazza and Kiah the following day. With about twenty people in attendance, audience enjoyment was high, laughing and clapping the events on screen. Principal cast members who attended the screening were Warwick, Nick Abbott, Peter Rogers, Andrew Newman, and of course, my good self. It was interesting to note the comments of those who had no affiliation with the project, namely those who were from Perth and had no preconceived ideas about the film, who enjoyed it for what it was and did not expect too much, and yet managed to laugh and appreciate the humour and action anyway.
The reason for this screening was primarily to allow those cast memebers who were not going to be able to see it on the big screen at the Adelaide premiere, namely, Wazza and Newman (and their wives) before they left to go overseas again.
The Adelaide premiere will occur sometime in the new year, probably January, to allow time to produce the DVD and prepare for distribution. this will also allow those whose Christmas calendars are rapidly filling up to attend what is sure to be a gala event. More news on this to follow.

Finally, TBII is out there.
