10 MPH Washington, DC Premiere
Where: E Street Cinema
Date: 2007-08-21 19:00:00
Type:
10 MPH is a comical documentary that follows a pair of aspiring filmmakers as they quit their jobs and take a unique American road trip. The impulsive purchase of a two-wheeled Segway scooter sets this story in motion when the two friends decide to travel from Seattle to Boston at 10 MPH in an attempt to change their lives forever... What ensues is a road trip like none other with a haphazard cast of characters you could only find on a zany 100-day trek through Americas back roads. Each poignant story the two friends discover along the way inspires a craving inside to go out and do that thing you're supposed to do. Filmmakers Hunter Weeks and Josh Caldwell will be present for a Q&A.Event submitted by Eventful.com on behalf of hunterweeks.

Guy Torry was born and raised along with his brother, actor and comedian Joe Torry, in St. Louis, Missouri. He attended Southeast Missouri State University where fellow comedian and St. Louisan Cedric the Entertainer attend. While attending college, friends and various people that came into Guy's life notice his niche for comedy. It was said that he often would have comedy shows in dorms rooms on campus that were very popular at the time. After college, Guy eventually followed his older brother Joe to Hollywood where he took up acting and comedy as well. Guy married his wife, Monica Askew, after actually proposing to her on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Guy Torry began his acting career around the age of 23. He made spot appearances in television shows such as Family Matters and Martin. He eventually appeared on Def Comedy Jam, the show his brother hosted and became a writer for that very show. He also wrote for other television series such as Martin and Moesha among others. He started breaking into films in the mid 90's and has had parts in many films since then such as Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood, Life, and Trippin'. His most notable role was as a convict named Lamont in American History X in which he helped turned a young Nazi-skinhead's life around while in prison.

Where: Rock and Roll Hotel

Type:
The Dirtbombs will blow you away. Kelly Stoltz's tunes swing all over the map, offering chugging, fuzzed-out rockers, pretty acoustic numbers, bluesy ballads and tipsy psychedelic pop. Some songs begin folkishly, with bittersweet vocals and plaintive acoustic guitar, only to head into freakier territory, steered off-course by circus-y percussion and spooky keyboards. Julie Ocean is an indie/big beat/pop quartet from Washington DC.
