The 15th Anniversary was my first convention, and it was nothing short
of incredible. It was held in Beverly Hills, CA, at the 20th Century
Fox lot, Soundstage #14, on October 20, 1990. This convention featured
the following stars: Tim Curry, Richard O'Brien, Patricia Quinn, Little
Nell, Barry Bostwick and Meatloaf. This was my first big convention,
and there was so much to take in. In addition to getting autographs,
I was also performing as a Transylvanian. Parts of that weekend are
still extremely foggy, just because so much was happening at once. In
addition, video cameras were not highly common at the time, and it's
not like they were allowed, anyway. So, the only footage I have of the
15th Anniversary was taken from the 20th Anniversary Rocky Horror LaserDisc.
Here is what Barry said on stage at the 15th Anniversary:
Now what I wanna know is, how many people out here actually play
Brad Majors?
(cheers)
Yeah right, yeah right, 2 percent, right? 2 percent.
What is he, boring? What? What? What? Huh?
Okay, wait a minute, all the people who play Brad Majors, I want
you all to say (pause) along with me (puts on 'Brad' glasses) ... Dammit,
Janet, WAIT! One, two, three, DAMMIT, JANET!!!
It's not much, but it's all I could find.
I did get to meet Barry, as well as get his autograph, and watch him
plant a kiss on one of the Janets on-stage. :-)
Here's a picture of Barry at the 15th...
If you have any more footage/pictures, please forward them!!
