ABOUT MY FILM "PETE HOLLY LIVE at BERKELEY

TECHNICALLY "PETE HOLLY LIVE AT BERKELEY" IS WHAT IS KNOWN IN
FILM AS AN "ARK" MOVIE.THE WHOLE MOVIE TAKES PLACE IN ONE ROOM{TWELVE ANGRY MEN,LIFEBOAT}.IT ALSO CARRIES THE DISTINCTION OF BEING
ONE OF A VERY FEW NUMBER OF FILMS TO BE SHOT ALL IN ONE CONTINOUS TAKE.
{ALFRED HITCHCOCKS "ROPE" WAS DONE IN TEN MINUTE CONTINIOUS TAKE'S-VERY RARE}.BELIEVE ME THIS ISN'T EASY TO DO FOR 2 HOURS & 15 MINUTES.LUCKILY FOR
ME I HAVE HAD A MYRIAD OF EXPIERIENCES IN LIFE AND I HAVE BEEN PERFORMING SINCE I WAS 12{THAT'S FORTY YEARS FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO ARE
COUNTING].SO I DIDN'T HAVE ANY TROUBLE AT ALL FILLING UP THE TIME WITH
SOME OF MY MORE EXTREME ADVENTURE'S AND MUSICAL PERFORMANCES.THERE
ISN'T MUCH I HAVEN'T SEEN IN HOLLYWOOD,NEW YORK,NASHVILLE AND ALL THE PLACES IN BETWEEN IN THE WORLD OF SHOW BUSINESS FROM THE LOWEST LOWS
TO THE HIGHEST HIGHS.
THE SETLIST IS VERY IMPORTANT-THERE IS AN ART TO CHOOSING WHICH SONGS TO PLAY AND IN WHAT ORDER.I DID ALOT OF WORK ON THAT.
I DIDN'T PREPARE FOR THE INTERVIEW.I HAVE A GOOD MEMORY AND NO ONE KNOWS MY LIFE BETTER THAN ME{EXCEPTING GOD}.MY STATMENTS OF
BEING ON THE EDGE OF CATASTROPHE SO MANY TIMES IS NO EXAGERATION.FOR THE BETTER PART OF 35 YEARS WHEN I SAW A DANGEROUS STORM COMING AT
MY SHIP-I DIDN'T BACK AWAY BUT INSTEAD I PLOWED FULL STEAM AHEAD RIGHT
INTO TO THE CENTER OF IT WITH ONLY MY GUITARS AND VOICE AND SONGS-
I GAVE IT MY ALL-I DON'T KNOW ANY OTHER WAY.
THAT'S WHAT MY FILM IS REALLY ALL ABOUT.THE MIRACLE THAT I SURVIVED.
"BUT THERE FOR THE GRACE OF GOD GO I"
