Lompoc is serving up 5 IPAs inspired by all things classic rock, and
pairing these delicious, limited edition beverages with Scorsese's
The Last Waltz
, one of the best concert films of all time,
documenting the Band's final concert, with performances by Paul
Butterfield, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Emmylou Harris, Ringo Starr,
Ronnie Hawkins, Dr. John, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Muddy Waters,
Ronnie Wood, Neil Diamond, Bobby Charles, The Staple Singers, and Eric
Clapton.
More about the film:
Thanksgiving, 1976, San Francisco’s Winterland: the Band performs its last concert after 16 years on the road. Some numbers they do alone, some songs include guest artists from Ronnie Hawkins (their first boss, when they were the Hawks) to Bob Dylan (their last, when as his backup and as a solo group, they came into their own). Scorsese’s camera explores the interactions onstage in the making of music. Offstage, he interviews the Band’s five members, focusing on the nature of life on the road. The friendships, the harmonies, the hijinks, and the wear and tear add up to a last waltz.
