Aw come on, be fair. Of the "listed" cast, there's still Frankie Avalon, Joan O'Brien, Linda Cristal, Richard Widmark, Dean Smith and Rudy Robbins. We know that Ricky "Where yuh headed, Bub" Weir will be MC-ing the event and that Rudy Robbins and Dean Smith are confirmed shows. Theresa and "Curro" Champion will also be there. While Theresa, who did the memorable 'table dance' in the film will be presenting her costumed dance troupe, her husband Curro, who played guitar in the scene, will be performing, as well. TWO MONTHS FROM TODAY, FOLKS! HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE! ;D

Hank Worden died in 1992 at the age of 91. He was just born old!
Hank signed the photo in 1985 at a gathering of Alamo Buffs at Joe Musso's place. Afterwards, we all sat back to watch a scope 16mm print of THE WAYNAMO and cheered , every time Hank would appear on screen. Great day.

The NW corner of the Waynamo compound in 1975. Looking in the opposite direction, with my Brother Brian on the roof and the chapel in the background.

All those who will be attending the showing of the Waynamo in Alamo Village, this coming October 22nd, will have the opportunity of staying over in Historic Fort Clark, in Brackettville. Once a U.S. Cavalry Post, the fort's barracks are now comfortable hotel rooms. General George Patton of WWII fame was stationed at Fort Clark for a time, while Charles Travis, son of Alamo commander William Barrett Travis, once did a stint here, back in the 1850's. Now called Fort Clark Springs, the facility is located seven miles from Alamo Village.

Nefarious, entering the 'Monk's Burial Room' of the Waynamo church in 1976. To the left, is the door to Jim Bowie's room in the Waynamo film. Richard Widmark flamed about a half a dozen soldados who were coming in through this door with his multi-barreled Knock's Volley Gun.

No, the room has been absorbed into the 'new' BARBAROSA/PRICE OF FREEDOM Alamo church. This original Waynamo arch---seen here in 1976--- once led into the cattle pen/convent yard behind the Long Barrack. In this scene from PRICE OF FREEDOM, Travis (Casey Biggs) crouches under that very same arch, while the arch seen just behind the bed, to the left, leads to the room in the photo above where I am coming through the door. Hope that makes sense!

Whilst in Brackettville, beware of certain 'snake oil' salesman who may be found lurking about Alamo Village!

Nope, it's not a lost still from the Waynamo, but rather a photo of Theodore Pitman's diorama of the Alamo at the State Capitol in Austin!
