RoadToRuane
In memory of Billy Ruane (1957-2010). With the approaching film release of "Road To Ruane", by director Michael Gill (see upload #1 for theatrical trailor), we give you Billy's live video archive (uploaded one show at a time, by Greg Dalton-Kay). --- Boston/Cambridge MA music history changed the day Billy Ruane started booking shows. Billy and others thought it would be a good idea to videotape as many shows as possible. Most of the 1990-2002 set was filmed by Jody Urbati (now Urbati-Moore). Some of the earlier shows were filmed by Tom White, Thomas "Blue" Newell, Francis DiMenno, or other acquaintances of Billy.
