Three Thursdays – A new web series created by Kevin Staniec.

Three Thursdays is a funny little documentary about mediocrity and failure. In the summer of 2002, Keith Wilson, a liquor store clerk with big dreams and a bigger mouth, talked three music venues into staging three concerts. He convinced five up-and-coming bands to perform on three consecutive Thursdays. This is Keith’s story. These are his three Thursdays.

Episode Four / The First Thursday

The doors open to an underwhelming crowd but the show must go on. “You have honey in your voice… and I love it.”

Episode Three / The First Thursday

Keith, JB and the bands prepare for their first show in Orange County. “Now if you’ll notice on stage there’s a lot of wires and stuff… those lead to actual instruments they’re playing.”

Episode Two / Wednesday

Keith and JB plan the three upcoming concerts while playing eighteen holes of golf. “Eighteen holes of pure bliss and communication… and a little meditation.”

Episode One / Introduction

Keith found five bands and scheduled performances for the first Thursday in Santa Ana, the second Thursday in Hollywood, and the third and final Thursday in Long Beach.
