OT: Things to do while in CLE for the National...

[novakjr]

I believe we've covered this before. BUT I can't seem to find the thread for it. So I'm starting a fresh one. As a local guy(albeit one who doesn't really get out much), I just think it would be kinda nice for us local to share some local events so that the out of towners can have a better idea of other things to do in the area. Anyone who knows of any interesting types of event going on in the area during the National, feel free to post them here.

I'll start with The Capitol Theater. Located on the corner of Detroit Rd and W.65th, in the Gordon Arts District. Just a great old theater from the 1920's. I finally got there for the first time the other day for a midnight movie, and it was a pretty enjoyable time...

Starting Fri, Aug 1st(for a week) they with be screening the 40th Anniversary restoration of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I believe there are going to be 2 screenings each day. I'm not 100% sure on the times, I don't think they've posted them yet... So for anyone interested, you'd just have to check the site...

Now another one at the Cedar Lee Theater in Cleveland Heights. Another old theater from the '20s. Saturday Aug 2nd, there is a midnight showing of Rocky Horror Picture Show. They do this the first Saturday of every month.

Again, anyone else with some events they'd like to share, please do so...
