Not exactly the same thing, but my wife and I saw Logan at a drive in theater when it came out
Towards the end when he’s all fucked up and near death, the audio started doing all kinds of weird shit, cutting in and out, getting fuzzy and distorted, etc.
We thought it was a pretty cool effect to show the sort of state he was in and we were all about it.
Then we heard some crystal clear audio coming from the cars next to us, turns out it was just my car’s battery dying from running the radio.
Still think it was a cool effect, would watch it again that way if it were an option.
I’ve since picked up a battery powered radio for future drive-ins (we try to go at least once a year)
It depends on what I’m doing
If I’m going somewhere out of easy driving distance and hoping maybe some friends will come along, I’ll start floating the idea about a year out, start making more solid plans about 6 months out. Give people time to get passports, save up for plane tickets, etc.
If it’s an overnight to a long weekend with just me and my wife, maybe a couple weeks, we could probably do day-of sometimes but we gotta make sure someone can watch our dog.
