Wars Remembered
Thomas moved to Humboldt a couple of years ago from L.A., where he worked as a researcher for movies. Many of the films he worked on were war films, he said, and that gave Monday’s show extra special meaning for him. “I’ve been part of the machine that occasionally makes [war] look fun and by that token this comes as atonement for me,” he said.
Thomas’ regular show, “Not That Kind of Show Tunes,” airs Wednesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. To hear excerpts from Eric Hollenbeck’s poem Uncle Sam’s Tour Guide to Southeast Asiavisit our blog at ncjournal.wordpress.com.
