The 2nd annual Austin Psych Fest expanded to three days, and was held March 13-15 at the Radio Room, a short lived venue in downtown Austin on 6th St. APF brought two psych legends from the 1960s to the stage: The Seeds’ Sky Saxon performed with Shapes Have Fangs as his backing band, and Texas psych legends The Golden Dawn performed their classic album “Power Plant” in its entirety. Joined by modern psych heavies like Dead Meadow, A Place to Bury Strangers, Wooden Shjips, A Place to Bury Strangers, The Warlocks, and The Black Angels, APF 2009 set the tone for years to come, marking the festival as the definitive showcase of psychedelic rock.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
