Kings County Cinema Society will be at Vox Pop Cafe this Wednesday with a Free Screening of Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus. Rolling Stones Rock and Roll Circus(1968/1996, 65min), is the Stones’ infamous failed television special originally filmed in December of ’68. The concert/variety show, staged in the middle of a replica seedy Big Top circus stage, features The Stones, The Who, Taj Mahal, Jethro Tull, and an uber-rare performance from short-lived supergroup The Dirty Mac (John Lennon & Yoko, Keith Richards, Eric Clapton, Mitch Mitchell). Mick and co. withheld the special’s release supposedly due to their sub-par performance (they claimed to be exhausted) though most rock fanatics and historians say the actual reason is that the band was clearly upstaged by Pete Townshend and The Who’s epic and ripping performance of “A Quick One While He’s Away.” “Yer Blues” by Lennon/Richards/Clapton/Mitchell.
*Plus don’t miss the new “Hump Day Dance Party” to follow at 10.
