To the left as I walked in the greeters' area was a long room full of tables with a stage at the end. I walked in the front door after taking a moment to look at the menus displayed outside.
Don't worry, that isn't the end of the American-as-it-gets imagery. The restaurant has a stone water wheel out front as well as a fountain with a black bear and a bald eagle. The restaurant is directly across the street from Magic Quest off the Parkway in Pigeon Forge. Harpoon Harry's is a massive restaurant that also has multiple bars and live entertainment. The final tiny, winding road took me past a graveyard that overlooked the gigantic King Kong statue on the side of the Hollywood Wax Museum. I don't often venture to Pigeon Forge, and on this night I took the back way in from Knoxville through Seymour to avoid the delays perpetually associated with traveling down 66 from I-40. Warm snaps in the middle of winter always seem to confuse nature. From my spot in the parking lot my ears were picking up the sound of birds chirping spring songs and the band playing inside Harpoon Harry's in Pigeon Forge. I rolled my windows down to take in the nearly 70-degree air on this Saturday night, the day after Christmas. The music of Tears for Fears was prominently featured in the film "Donnie Darko," specifically a cover by Gary Jules of the song "Mad World." Hence the wiki search. I must have come across the band through a random Pandora station and felt the unstoppable urge to revisit them.
#HARPOON HARRYS MENU MOVIE#
I found myself in the parking lot of Harpoon Harry's searching Wikipedia for the director of the movie "Donnie Darko." You see, for the last few weeks I had been in a Tears for Fears phase for some reason or another.
