Outstanding Dale! Loved this video. I was only 7 in 1975 so i don't remember this drive-in although there is a strong chance I may have been taken there as a child. Ive done some exploring like this too. A few years ago i explored the old slaughterhouse down on the first broad but never uploaded my videos. Please keep making cool videos like this one.

@@dalefromshelby8002 My band played a show with The Trust at Kate's skating rink in the Fall of 87 and again at Jeff's legendary party off Rehobeth Church Rd up 226 in the Spring of 1988 that I would love to find a copy of. We also did two city park shows and opened up for Animal Bag at the Diana Shop show sometime in 88. We also arranged and played several field parties. We were called The Delima at the Kate's show.. then Bats Cats & Stray Dogs by the big party at Jeff's (where there was also a legendary sheriffs dept roadblock waiting on us) then later we were called Apocalyptic Dreams and the Dead Rabbits Gang. I've been searching for anyone that has any footage of us from shows we wish we had recorded.

@@BillyXTC when I recorded the Trust it was at Kate's in Lowell n.c. Luke Edwards was the singer at the time. I remember a band call Mad Hatter from Shelby, I wish I could find something on them. I'm sure we were probably at some of the same shows. I used to go to Cadallics in Hickory all the time also.

It seems just like yesterday to me. Even the toilet is something I took notice of then, since the stainless steel you show now, seemed futuristic in 1968. For at last half of 1968 with "Midnight Confession", "Fire" and "Hooked on a Feeling" on the radio and the "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", "Rosemary's Baby" and "Danger Diabolic" at the movies, I saw every movie that came to all the screens in Shelby. Raquel Welch was 27 and I was 19. My car was the first 1969 Karmann-Ghia sold in America. My hair was long and I never got haircuts, cokes and popcorn were cheap as air and water, and gas was nothing. When my 3-7 slot at WADA was up, I was dressed and ready with my "Canoe" cologne from Suttle's Drug Store. Shelby Drive-in was huge and that screen always seemed far away. stately and grand. And yes, in another video you mentioned seeing "Night of the Living Dead" at the Sky-View Drive-in and I saw it there as well. In 1969 I met several people involved in that movie while in the Marine Corps, and I had always remembered that Channel 6 Television in Pittsburgh was involved to some extent with the production due to that being something I remembered from the credits. That screen at Shelby Drive-in was so far enough from the road that I never got claustrophobic in the way I did at other places, including Sunset Drive-In. Yes, my whole life has been spent around Drive-in Theaters, especially the two that used to be in Rutherford County, but also in many other states.
