Help me convince my friend to get Chris and the guys to come to Sioux City for a Riff Raff Theatre showing of Tron!

It's possible.. The price of airfare and gas prices are becoming a factor these days.. :-\

Sure if I was in relatively easy traveling distance from Sioux City.

Now if they wanted to appear at one of the Emagin Theaters (http://www.emagine-entertainment.com/visshowtimes.aspx?AspxAutoDetectCookieSupport=1) then absolutely.

What we need is a central place to fly to, and then a long bus ride to Sioux City filled with Rifftrax Roundtable dorks.

The problem's not in travel, but in the showing itself. Not legal to make money off a film like that without various fees and arrangments.
At least until we get more comfortable and start making money enough to invest in something like that, we're gonna have to function specifically out of the Englert. Still, it's an idea on the table.

No, see, I know all that.  He could do it, if enough people came to it so he could break even or turn a profit.

I'd be willing to make a trip that far, but it would be really dependant on dates.

BTA,

We would be interested in investigating this possibility, if the conditions were right. Why don't you or your friend shoot Chris an email with your ideas and we'll get a discussion going there? His email address is in his profile.

I'm still working on him.  He did get a message from Chris.  He's just busy right now trying to get a bank loan to buy out his partner and refurbish his theater.
