0:08
i am in downtown salt lake city utah
0:12
behind me
0:14
is this very impressive structure called
0:16
the rio grande depot
0:19
1998 a film by the name of slc punk came
0:23
out starring matthew lillard playing
0:25
stevo it was also bob and a cast of
0:28
other
0:28
characters
0:30
and i've seen it many many times it is
0:32
hard to believe that next year will be
0:34
the 25th anniversary of said film and i
0:37
have never
0:38
documented for posterity
0:42
slc officers going by
0:45
the filming locations so i'm going to do
0:47
an impromptu
0:49
kind of impromptu location tour around
0:53
salt lake city slc punk
0:56
inviting you to join me shall we
1:15
where stevo and bob lived in a very
1:15
run-down loft apartment
1:18
is much nicer now than it was then
1:20
it's now a construction office building
1:24
you see the tower there on the far right
1:28
they were in that tower
1:30
and then off in the distance kind of on
1:31
the overlook where i started looking at
1:33
downtowns or some train tracks you can
1:36
faintly see those off in the distance
1:38
when stevo
1:39
standing there at the window for a
1:40
couple scenes you'll see the road how
1:42
the there's a ramp that goes over the
1:44
tracks down there that used to extend
1:47
all the way through here in fact the
1:49
building was slightly obscured
1:52
by that ramp there was a two-story road
1:55
and the lower portion of the road
1:57
through here
1:58
wasn't really utilized too much for
2:00
traffic in fact there was a scene or two
2:02
that took place right in here as well so
2:05
imagine if you will there was a
2:07
a second level road that for one reason
2:09
or another
2:10
has been torn out shown here is that
2:13
road the elevated road now pay attention
2:16
to this building over here with the
2:18
windows and everything
2:24
i'll show that in a moment that is
2:24
directly across from where i'm standing
2:26
now so this was just right up against
2:29
their loft apartment building right
2:30
across the way but definitely notice
2:32
that building there
2:34
how it looks with the little loft on
2:36
that too because that is directly right
2:38
behind me so the road
2:41
elevated was right here
2:43
it was also a scene
2:45
that took place right over here when
2:46
they parked the car and they take bob
2:48
inside for the last time
2:51
404 west is the address you can see it
2:53
right on the side of that door now it's
2:54
kind of tough to tell because it's
2:56
silhouetted out by the sun but you can
2:58
you can get the building structure
2:59
itself and see that that is the precise
3:01
one
3:03
looking underneath where the on-ramp
3:05
used to be
3:06
same building and everything right over
3:07
there across the street
3:09
very interesting they tore the road out
3:11
also the
3:12
power pole there
3:14
and the side of the building which is
3:15
now the construction building
3:18
i believe the street lamp has been
3:20
changed but it's the same power pole and
3:22
the same building over here to the left
3:23
and that was just before the camera in
3:25
the movie pans down from this angle
3:29
shows the upper
3:30
road and then reveals both
3:34
stevo and bob sitting in the street
3:40
right here same building behind them as
3:40
well right over there same builder even
3:42
with the chimney there next to his head
3:44
mohawk behind stevo the same little
3:45
and is
3:49
building there with the addition kind of
3:49
protruding out
3:51
into the left side of his face
3:53
which both can be seen right there
3:57
yeah they were just sitting right out
3:59
here where the road is now
4:01
with traffic now it wouldn't even be
4:03
possible
4:04
okay this is kind of interesting the
4:06
address is right on the side of the
4:08
building now it's on the door you see
4:09
the 404
4:11
on the side and there's an electrical
4:12
box on the corner where stevo pulls up
4:15
his van
4:16
and takes bob inside
4:19
but take a look at this light pole there
4:20
are some
4:22
kind of golden letters
4:24
those are still here on this very corner
4:27
the door they went in was right here now
4:29
an employee entrance
4:31
and there's the electrical box over
4:33
there in the corner
4:35
the van was right here in this very
4:37
spot
4:39
this pole here
4:41
is brandy that pole is not was not there
4:43
in the movie itself but take a look at
4:46
this this v
4:48
right here
4:50
this
4:51
rusted out
4:52
used to be a gold
4:54
colored v well orange
4:57
can be seen in the film
4:59
screen used right there
5:04
and then they walk right in that door go
5:06
up the stairs to the loft
5:09
which was way up top there i don't know
5:11
if i'm gonna be able to get in here but
5:12
i'm gonna go in the office and just ask
5:14
of course they could say is no
5:16
looks as if they might have replaced the
5:18
windows but they are the same style
5:21
of windows
5:23
that they were in the movie
5:29
the building pretty much looks the same
5:29
windows probably replaced but they just
5:30
came to keep kept the same architecture
5:32
of the windows all right
5:34
that was a hard no
5:38
it never hurts to ask
5:39
i'm just going to just show up from the
5:41
road
5:42
evidently it is the person who owns
5:45
this company's office and obviously they
5:48
don't want someone in there
5:50
filming personal stuff which i get
5:52
would have been cool to get up there
5:53
though now without getting up there i'm
5:54
just kind of guesstimating on where it
5:57
was
5:58
there's also the very dramatic you know
6:00
spoiler alert the very dramatic ending
6:03
i don't want to give too much away if
6:04
you haven't seen it but yeah this very
6:06
dramatic scene the only posers die
6:09
crying all that
6:20
there is a staircase that goes from
6:20
their level up a level
6:22
so i am just assuming i don't know for a
6:24
fact
6:25
that theirs was on the second one down
6:27
not the top windows but the second
6:29
windows down that's also where they have
6:31
the party scene
6:32
you know a lot of stuff happened in
6:33
there
6:34
they had all the spray paint on the
6:36
walls
6:42
and then most likely when matthew
6:42
lillard is looking out he's looking out
6:45
of that window
6:46
right there because
6:48
you can see
6:50
the roof
6:59
it's just a guess
6:59
i have made the five or six mile commute
7:01
give or take
7:03
over to president's presidential circle
7:05
or president's circle
7:06
here on the university
7:08
where bob's talking about napoleon
7:11
let me tell you something
7:13
about the nature of chemicals man
7:24
in this area yeah it was kind of laying
7:24
on the side of that little
7:31
concrete pylon there
7:31
like a little information placard
7:33
with the bench there the trash can and
7:35
that very unique distinct building
7:37
behind him which would have been right
7:39
here
7:46
oh you know what it's not like i thought
7:46
it actually said something it's just a
7:48
little great
7:52
okay it's like a sewage grate of some
7:52
sort actually no there's a light in
7:55
for some reason when i watched it i
7:56
always thought that they would have like
7:58
there was like some info written on it
8:00
but even the one over here it's just a
8:02
great too
8:04
just for the lights to
8:06
point up at the flag
8:18
so
8:18
matthew was right here
8:21
bob was right there
8:23
well the actor that played bob so steve
8:24
was down here
8:39
that's so funny i always remember the
8:39
scene
8:44
i feel like i need to lay down right
8:44
here there's even a pretty cool little
8:45
aerial uh crane view looking down
8:49
so his foot's on that
8:50
that line on the concrete there
8:53
there's the close-up yeah you can tell
8:54
it's a great even in this photo i guess
8:56
it is a great not a placard this is not
8:59
the most comfortable headrest definitely
9:01
not as comfortable as a pillow and i'm
9:04
looking right into
9:05
the sun
9:07
and there's a dog barking but this is
9:08
kind of the angle
9:10
he's just listening to
9:11
what his friend has to say in great
9:13
detail
9:29
to be honest
9:29
laid back down there
9:31
grass is pretty cozy but this right here
9:37
yeah
9:37
not comfortable
9:42
i always wanted to go to where this spot
9:42
the scene took place and now i did
9:44
pretty cool and just a couple miles away
9:46
is where shawn was selling all the stuff
9:48
to the mods all their bikes were parked
9:51
right over in here
9:52
and the security comes out of the door
9:54
over there and kind of chases them off
9:55
and runs over but pretty good view
9:58
of the capitol building
10:01
over off in the distance
10:03
and
10:04
downtown salt lake
10:06
can be seen in the film on the horizon
10:08
as well in this general area they had
10:10
their bikes right out front here
10:13
it was funny how
10:15
the character of sean was wearing the
10:16
oven mitts
10:19
on both hands
10:20
there's the oven mitts there's their
10:22
bikes
10:23
i guess probably vespas or similar to
10:25
vespas
10:30
check out over here
10:30
though that fire hydrant still here
10:41
of course the angle would have been kind
10:41
of from up there on the stairwell
10:43
the stairwell more or less with the
10:46
windows in the background
10:59
with the example of the windows there
10:59
and this little concrete embankment on
11:02
the staircase
11:03
lead again
11:05
still there still looks the same
11:07
which means i guess he's probably more
11:09
in this general area
11:11
and there's a little staircase
11:12
embankment the guy runs out
11:18
that's it on to the next spot
11:18
now about a mile or so away from where i
11:20
just was
11:22
over in this little shopping development
11:25
where next to this dry cleaners is where
11:28
trish
11:29
her shop was trisha's
11:31
shop was
11:33
where they're building this new i guess
11:35
apartment complex of some sort
11:37
there's not really a lot of clues left
11:39
that it was over there except for the
11:42
that trish stevo and bob walked along
11:45
this sidewalk and they passed by this
11:48
dry cleaner sculpture
11:50
looking well
11:52
not sculpture but structure i should say
11:55
there's a couple angles where they're
11:56
walking that way there's a nail salon
11:58
over there you see the side of this wall
12:00
but you see
12:01
this henry's dry cleaner sign faintly so
12:04
where the three of them are walking you
12:06
see the side of this building for a
12:07
moment then you also see this angle here
12:11
and the old kind of fancy neon that's up
12:14
top here
12:16
used to be right here because you can
12:18
see this little
12:20
indentation this alcove overhang here
12:22
which is here
12:25
was there for just a brief moment and
12:27
there was something else on that
12:28
so trisha's shop would have been right
12:30
where that construction guy's going now
12:32
but if you take a look here you can see
12:34
just the side of that neon sign right
12:37
there above bob's head
12:38
very interesting
12:40
just a little section of it and just a
12:42
frame or two before that
12:45
so the neons over here to the far right
12:47
there is that little kind of overhang
12:50
awning there
12:51
with the blocks these have a different
12:52
cleaner side
12:54
right up top there
12:55
so what i'm referring to
12:58
is right here
13:06
so neon was there and then the bluish
13:06
cleaner sign
13:07
was right up there and what i just
13:09
showed in that screen
13:10
grab
13:12
was that section right there
13:14
with the three of them standing here
13:16
with a very vintage firestone tires spot
13:20
over there as well
13:21
and then they continued
13:23
walking that way
13:24
this her shop's gone though it's been
13:25
bulldozed a long time ago okay here's
13:27
another example
13:29
that's a very
13:31
very good photo there
13:38
looking back at what i'm describing now
13:38
not much to go off of except just you
13:40
know if this dry cleaners building was
13:42
torn down nothing would match up and it
13:44
is still an active dry cleaner so this
13:46
day
13:51
if stevo ever had his clothes dry
13:51
cleaned i'm gonna guess no just a few
13:53
blocks away is the scene where stevo and
13:56
sandy
13:58
are walking and they bump into shawn a
14:00
little bit later
14:02
after the moments with the
14:04
the mods
14:06
and sean does not recognize stevo he
14:08
thinks he's bob
14:10
and that conversation took place right
14:12
up not on this corner but the very next
14:13
corner
14:14
these archways look very distinct as
14:17
well as
14:18
this building that's over here
14:21
over the top of their heads during the
14:22
scene is taking place but it happened
14:24
right here on this very corner
14:31
the panhandling scene
14:31
basically they were
14:32
all standing right about here
14:37
but that car was going to pull on this
14:37
beside me
14:39
so yeah the dialogue all took place
14:40
right here and this is what it looks
14:42
like from the other direction as they're
14:44
walking up to that corner and they just
14:46
continue to walk on after they
14:48
they shot
14:49
saw him and all that now the building
14:50
directly behind his head looks to be
14:52
like it's under construction
14:54
at this point though it's all tarped
14:55
over which would be the one there off in
14:57
the distance
15:01
other than that pretty much looks the
15:01
same right here this other building does
15:03
and then as they walk off he's still
15:05
left back there i'll catch you guys in
15:06
the rebound
15:07
on the rebound
15:12
i have now driven up to the top of this
15:14
overlook this is
15:16
about where i think the opening scene
15:18
took place
15:29
see the capitol building off in the
15:29
distance
15:31
kind of about this angle where
15:33
referred to as the rednecks pull up in
15:35
their truck
15:36
and then they jump them
15:38
all that took place right about here of
15:39
course it was filmed at night
15:41
or the shroud of nightfall
15:43
this is about the angle
15:45
of course it's been you know
15:47
two and a half decades it looks a little
15:48
bit different as far as
15:50
where the truck pulled out the truck
15:52
would have pulled up kind of right here
15:54
and parked
15:55
but it's interesting that the
15:57
little plants here
15:59
the like barren landscape the foliage
16:03
still looks the same the growth of those
16:05
weeds
16:06
drove over and parked my
16:08
rental car
16:10
down at the entryway to memory grove
16:13
and this pretty much looks exactly the
16:15
same that little gazebo can be seen
16:18
where
16:19
stevo and sandy are laying here in the
16:21
grass
16:22
i think there was some other
16:24
other moments from that
16:26
that portion of the film as well
16:29
see if i can kind of match it up where
16:30
they were laying here
16:31
on the ground it's kind of interesting
16:33
you really only see the gazebo for a
16:35
brief brief moment as they're
16:38
over there on the lawn you see the
16:39
gazebo over to the far left of the
16:41
screen
16:42
as well
16:43
so it still looks the same but yeah you
16:45
really hardly see the gazebo much in the
16:47
film
16:49
which would have been this angle here
16:55
i'm gonna walk over there and see what
16:55
that little placard says
16:57
also top of the hill
16:59
you can faintly see the top of the
17:00
capitol building
17:02
up the stairs there
17:05
and they kind of intercut a couple of
17:07
scenes and while they're
17:09
narrating it and talking here
17:11
on the lawn
17:13
there's kind of even like a crane angle
17:15
looking down like that like a bird's eye
17:18
on both of them
17:30
this is what is far
17:30
back behind them there
17:40
they were more or less right here on the
17:40
ground
17:42
both sitting
17:44
she was sitting he was kind of laying
17:46
down
17:47
back on the ground face facing up to the
17:49
sky
17:50
more or less
17:52
very beautiful park though look at this
17:55
that overlook
17:56
from the very intro of the movie it's
17:58
way up there way up the top of that hill
18:01
and in this very park there is a
18:03
meditation chapel at the top of these
18:05
stairs
18:06
which is where the lovemaking scene took
18:08
place
18:10
where steve was kind of freaking out a
18:12
little bit
18:14
a lot of quick cuts things like that
18:16
you can tell by the pillars here
18:24
just adjacent to where they were sitting
18:24
in the parks like probably director
18:26
probably said hey just go up here
18:28
and utilize this there was a bench over
18:30
here that they were
18:32
doing their business on oh i wonder if
18:34
this might actually be
18:36
the bench
18:37
which should be kind of unusual
18:39
if this is the same bench
18:47
yeah you know what
18:47
it might be it might not even have been
18:49
moved
18:54
now the area has been fixed up a lot
18:54
since then but that's the angle and
18:55
looking at this it appears as if it's
18:57
the same exact bench
19:04
capitol building in view right there
19:04
look at
19:15
romantic
19:16
all right still a few more spots a
19:17
couple more spots maybe a few more spots
19:20
see what else i can find around the
19:21
greater salt lake area
19:29
filming and walking at the same time
19:29
downstairs
19:31
to tread lightly
19:33
lose my footing
19:41
this is such a beautiful area
19:41
never been through this section of salt
19:42
lake before
19:50
they drove like maybe a mile or so
19:50
parked and now approaching walking up to
19:53
the church of the madeline
19:56
which i've been here before when i was
19:58
here three or four months ago i did a
19:59
trolley tour
20:00
trolley tour parked over here of course
20:02
they did not mention
20:04
this is where the climactic ending
20:07
of slc punk took place but it is
20:11
i don't want to give too many spoilers
20:12
but
20:14
this is where it kind of all ended
20:16
they did use an interior
20:18
but also the exteriors along this wall
20:20
about along these houses
20:22
near that other cathedral down at the
20:24
end i'll walk down there in a moment
20:26
filming this a little bit out of
20:27
sequence i'm filming this in the order
20:28
of my day
20:30
as opposed to continuity of the film
20:32
so there will be a spot or two after
20:34
this but
20:35
this is the closest to downtown one of
20:37
the last downtown spots
20:39
i'm gonna hit up before venturing out of
20:40
downtown to some other ones
20:42
let's see if it's open see if i can get
20:44
inside
20:46
and see if i can match anything up as
20:48
well now that i'm standing here i'm
20:49
realizing that where he gives her the
20:51
hug
20:53
was not up at the door level like i
20:55
thought it was if he didn't walk across
20:58
that way he did but at the lower level
21:00
in fact it's kind of down here at the
21:02
bottom portion of the steps
21:06
for some reason i was thinking in my
21:07
mind that this was up one level but in
21:10
fact it's here
21:11
matthew was standing right here
21:13
these little carvings behind him as he
21:16
just simply
21:17
says okay and walks away
21:20
and then kind of match this up
21:22
this is lawrence
21:24
scanlon
21:26
and he could be seen in the movie
21:28
or at least a little sculpture of them
21:32
as she's standing right there
21:34
watching stevo walk off there's also a
21:36
scene right here where stevo's standing
21:38
out front
21:40
kind of looking at these doors as well
21:42
but it's very interesting in order to
21:44
get this angle
21:45
it kind of starts off way high up
21:47
looking at his
21:48
his head from up here except maybe like
21:51
20 feet above me and then it kind of
21:53
zooms in on his face and then does this
21:55
angle
21:56
which means in order to get that you
21:57
know because there's this
21:59
little overhang they would have had to
22:00
have
22:01
like a
22:03
very tall like crane here
22:05
kind of
22:06
going from about that angle here
22:09
in order to to look over this direction
22:12
and here's that photo of lawrence
22:14
scanlon as well we're standing in front
22:16
of
22:17
the lawrence scanlan which
22:19
is over here
22:21
that i mentioned a moment ago
22:27
also where they would have had that
22:27
crane up kind of looking down
22:30
i also went inside
22:33
doors were open and i mashed up a few
22:34
things in there
22:36
where they were all sitting
22:38
in the pews kind of match up those
22:40
angles as well
22:42
pay in their respects
22:44
inside they're very very beautiful
22:46
cathedral
22:48
very beautiful
22:50
i just kind of matched up the ones that
22:51
are in here so they did film the
22:53
interiors
22:54
inside here as well which is pretty
22:56
awesome
22:57
there's the angle i'm referring to and
22:59
you can see he by this point
23:01
he's shaved off his mohawk
23:07
and from this very spot where she was
23:07
left standing
23:08
in shock of the events that had happened
23:10
to her front
23:12
stevo walks off this way
23:18
now listen i have the i have the dvd
23:18
it's never been released on blu-ray as
23:19
far as i know but i had the dvd and it
23:21
has director and actor commentary
23:25
and it's very interesting because when
23:26
they were filming the very ending scene
23:28
when he's sitting on a bench down here
23:30
the very very far end the bench is now
23:33
gone
23:34
i guess there was people across the road
23:36
kind of yelling and screaming and
23:38
trying to get matthew lillard's
23:40
attention so he had to do that whole
23:42
with the distraction of people across
23:44
the road
23:45
of course it was all voiced over so it
23:46
didn't make a difference but he had to
23:48
act under
23:49
under all that while everyone was over
23:50
there yelling kind of here along the
23:52
side of the road according to his
23:54
commentary on the dvd and it's pretty
23:56
simple to match up even though the the
23:57
bench is gone
23:59
there's this kind of crack right here
24:01
this little indentation
24:02
in the concrete
24:04
and it was just to the side of it so the
24:06
bench would have been just to the side
24:08
kind of about like that
24:09
it would have kind of been about where
24:11
the bench was here
24:15
and it was all kind of a long angle
24:15
where it went past this little stairwell
24:19
leading up to this house so the camera
24:20
was like going from the cathedral
24:23
all along here
24:24
and then
24:26
stevo's sitting there and he of course
24:28
delivers the last line of the movie and
24:30
it turns like this and then goes goes
24:33
right in
24:34
to his face right about there
24:37
now give or take this general area yeah
24:39
and there's the rock wall there's the
24:41
other cathedral here's that crack that i
24:43
was referring to
24:44
see if i can kind of show the close-up
24:46
of his face and where he was
24:48
i was nothing more there's a fly up it
24:50
was a fly on my ear i was nothing more
24:52
than a
24:54
expletive expletive
24:55
troll it was a fly on my nose
24:58
trendy ass closer
25:01
i gotta do the line about 10 or 15 miles
25:03
from where i just was down this road
25:07
is an old mill an old factory way back
25:10
in the day
25:11
now closed off
25:13
well
25:15
just sitting here kind of rotting away
25:17
this stood in
25:19
for the punk venue
25:24
everyone was kind of slammed dancing
25:26
around doing their thing in there
25:29
in fact you can see when the officers
25:31
show up at the end
25:33
drag everyone out
25:34
it was in on the back side of this right
25:37
here i'll kind of match some stuff up
25:40
and some of the windows there but the
25:42
concert was inside
25:43
this desolate building
25:46
pretty dang cool
25:47
stood in for a you know
25:50
what was said to be a real venue
25:52
back in the day in salt lake
25:55
but this was the fictional
25:57
punk rock club
26:02
this whole mill all right i walked over
26:02
here obviously i can't get inside but
26:04
this is
26:05
for certain
26:11
the side of the brick where they crawled
26:11
out the window
26:12
kind of to
26:14
avoid getting caught
26:15
but it's interesting you can match up
26:17
some of this rock work here i'll show
26:19
that in a moment but let me
26:21
kind of show what i'm talking about i'm
26:23
looking at the the screen grabs now
26:25
but they went out of so basically the
26:27
way it worked was the camera angle was
26:29
back here
26:30
they crawled out of the window very
26:32
similar to the other windows that are
26:33
over here
26:34
and then the camera which was on a crane
26:37
turned the corner and then you see
26:38
everyone getting arrested down there
26:42
what i'm really noticing on these rocks
26:45
are a couple up here that i'll kind of
26:46
point out so if you look closely
26:48
obviously the window shutters are gone
26:50
but there's like kind of a distinct
26:52
full-size brick here
26:54
and then look over here at these
26:57
right in the middle of the screen are
26:58
two
26:59
kind of small bricks on top of each
27:01
other and then the rectangular one to
27:02
the side
27:04
those are still there that's how i know
27:05
it's this side of the building so
27:07
it's a little brick underneath the other
27:08
brick
27:09
that's kind of what i'm looking for and
27:10
then up here there's this almost like
27:13
knife looking one and that can be seen
27:15
right here so there's the
27:17
the big brick i was talking about and if
27:19
you look there's the
27:25
there's the other two there
27:25
and then the cylinder one right up there
27:26
that i called the knife looking one
27:36
and then on the lower level down here is
27:37
everybody else that was out the concert
27:39
getting hauled away
27:41
yeah they filmed the concert scenes
27:43
right in there the window they went out
27:44
over on the other side
27:46
but it looked very similar you could see
27:47
it was similar to this window that's
27:49
that still has the original shutters on
27:50
it
27:51
and everything and then down in here
27:53
you know all the officers showed up
27:57
see if i could find the door that was
27:58
the
28:00
the exit door they were all running out
28:02
i had a little makeshift stairway here
28:13
oh the door's all sealed up yeah
28:13
obviously can't get in here
28:16
at least you can see it from the
28:17
exterior
28:20
seems like this was the door that
28:22
everyone rushed out of
28:24
and all the cars were here waiting for
28:26
him
28:27
haul them off to jail
28:29
and the reason you kind of think that
28:31
even though it looks nothing like it did
28:32
because you know it's really hard to
28:33
match up anything because there's huge
28:36
pylons in the front but over here is the
28:39
very unique structure of this building
28:41
which you can see off in the distance
28:43
officers cars here but you can notice
28:46
these over here in the corner
28:49
are in a couple of the frames from the
28:50
scene you can kind of see them right
28:52
there a little smoke a little dirt being
28:54
tussled around
28:56
and there are the there's the unique
28:57
parts of the building next to the
28:59
parking lot
29:00
that i just showed they would have run
29:02
out of over here to the right okay i
29:03
think this is definitely it because
29:04
there's a little rock wall down here
29:06
to the far extreme right corner and
29:09
there's another door up here that has a
29:10
wooden banister around it they would
29:12
have busted out this main door
29:14
so i'll kind of line that angle up as
29:16
well even though there's all those
29:17
pylons in the way now but yeah
29:19
i think this is the spot kind of about
29:21
from this angle here
29:23
and there was a big lamp at the top of
29:25
that door
29:26
but you can really see in the scene
29:28
when they all run out you can see this
29:30
little rock wall so just pretend like
29:32
those little concrete pylons aren't
29:33
there and then there's the other door
29:36
right over there that has the wooden
29:37
banner around it because it definitely
29:39
wouldn't be down here there's no way to
29:40
get the the cars down in here
29:43
so it wouldn't be down in there wouldn't
29:44
be one of those doors
29:46
the only other doors would be
29:47
those right over there the cars in here
29:56
and they all run out of there it'd be
29:56
cool to get inside there but obviously
29:58
this thing is not structurally sound
30:03
there's the windows okay kind of neath
30:03
they had them up there
30:04
on that top floor
30:06
and then just kind of jumped out the
30:07
window
30:08
all driven by the ramon soundtrack
30:10
during that same soundtrack's pretty
30:12
good but the ramones hop was put
30:15
my sunglasses on hop was
30:17
happening while they were all kind of
30:18
rushing out of there great soundtrack
30:20
you know i love punk rock so i like the
30:22
movie kind of walking back over to where
30:25
that window was
30:27
let me zoom in on this
30:37
this is identical to the woodwork
30:37
of the window that they did come out of
30:39
right up in there
30:41
except they were out this window which
30:43
has been
30:45
steeled up not boarded up but
30:47
boarded up with steel and this is around
30:49
the other side of the building
30:51
just showing what the
30:52
wooden
30:53
section of those windows used to look
30:54
like
30:56
pretty cool the concert was right inside
30:57
there all right commuted another 10
30:59
minutes or so over to my last spot which
31:02
kind of a very important spot it was the
31:04
mall i believe this is part of the
31:05
original mall building the only part
31:07
that's still left
31:09
as you can see over there
31:12
well over that way just a little bit
31:14
new condos and apartments are being
31:16
built
31:17
under the epic mountain
31:19
here in salt lake
31:28
yeah the mall is gone erased from
31:28
existence
31:29
i can't drive up in there it says
31:30
visitors must report the construction
31:32
office really nothing to see
31:35
but this appears to be the only section
31:37
of the original mall that's left
31:40
where he gave the whole
31:42
long-winded spiel
31:43
about punk rock
31:45
you know the part where he just kind of
31:46
goes on and on about anarchy in the uk
31:48
and how does that apply to him and
31:51
being a punk in utah all that stuff
31:53
and which band started you know punk
31:55
rock where there's sex pistols or
31:57
ramones and all that that whole spiel
31:59
was done inside that mall
32:00
and now condos
32:03
apartments being built
32:05
here's the other section here you can
32:06
kind of see what's left not much
32:09
escalators were in there even though i
32:11
don't think they were in this
32:13
particular store
32:15
but that's going to do it for today
32:17
kind of a quick well not quick it took
32:19
me a while to jaunt around
32:25
but a impromptu if you want to call it
32:25
not super detailed but detailed enough
32:28
shows some of the spots from slc punk
32:31
almost 20 next year will be 25 years
32:33
came out in 98.
32:35
i think my favorite line is christopher
32:36
mcdonald who also played shooter mcgavin
32:39
happy gilmore he was also in ruckman for
32:40
a drink he played the father
32:44
remember i didn't sell out i bought it i
32:46
think i was the lion
32:48
steven remember i didn't sell out i
32:50
bought in
32:51
keep that in mind
32:52
i always thought that was funny
32:55
i always like christopher mcdonald as
32:56
well can't forget he was in that movie
32:57
as well good cast
33:00
good script good locations
33:03
and possibly one of the few movies about
33:05
punk rock in salt lake city
33:08
thanks for watching i'll see you in the
33:09
next video
33:11
the vlog
33:12
wish i could have gotten in the mall
33:15
