The theatre’s clientele included astronauts and kickers, including the son of famous country singer Roy Head. The son unfortunately later died in a car accident, but his brother Sundance Head was a contestant on American Idol.

Roy Head used to get mad at me for not letting his (now deceased) 13 year old son (older brother of Sundance) in to see R movies. It was a twin theatre—we’d play a PG on one side and on the other side, we’d play a G in the afternoon and an R in the evening. Roy’s son already saw the PG on Fri nite. So what was he to see on Saturday night? [i remembered a parent had got mad at me for the cashier’s letting their 16-year old see Brooke Shields swim in the nude with the boy in “Endless Love.” Roy didn’t want his son hanging out at Roy’s R+ rated honky tonk.
Anyway, at the end, Roy gave me one of his records a souvenir -45
entitled “The Door I Used to Close.”
