If the psychedelic sixties were born in the dancehalls of San Francisco, then they were conceived in a saloon in Virginia City, Nevada. "The Life and Times of the Red Dog Saloon" is the story of the Red Dog Saloon and the history behind those wild times. Originally released as "The Life and Times of the Red Dog Saloon" in 1996, my 2005 DVD release title for the film is Rockin' at the Red Dog; The Dawn of Psychedelic Rock.
The film focuses on the music, the art, the lightshow and the lifestyle that made the culture of the Sixties possible, a missing piece of Nevada history and a uniquely American story.
The Red Dog was the first of the dancehall venues, a place where the wild west was enacted on a daily basis, gourmet meals were served, and a new kind of rock and roll was being played. The atmosphere fostered cultural growth and artistic expression—and people danced! The Red Dog offered more than wild nightlife. It provided people with a forum for experimentation. Life was to be shared. Motivations weren't material or competitive, and what started out as a business proposition evolved into an extended family network that remains today. Starring The Charlatans, Big Brother and the Holding Company, Don & Roz Works, Lynne Hughes, Chan Laughlin, Jenna Worden, Bob Elston...
