The Topp Twins: Untouchable Girls has won the Audience Award for Documentary at the Frameline Film Festival Awards in San Francisco.
The audience in the beautiful Castro Theatre cheered and stomped at the film’s screening which we were told was a good sign…and a good sign it turned out to be! If you weren’t there you can pretend you were in the audience by reliving it through this video of Jools & Lynda singing Untouchable Girls!

Wow! Congratulations on that award girls! The video is great; the audience look very happy and enthusiastic. Gives one a taste of the atmosphere there. What a gorgeous sumptuous theatre! Great pics too. Almost like being there…well, we can pretend :)

I was lucky enough to be in the audience at the beautiful SF Castro theater. After the very well received showing that included a short performance by the Topps, the duo graciously stayed on and autographed copies of their DVD that were for sale in the lobby and posed for photos as well. My girlfriend Sarah and I were delighted to meet them, pose for the photo and to support them by buying two of the DVDs. Then later, we wished we had bought several more for gifts and that is why I am here online today to order three more plus two CDS. I am inspired to spread the word! Thank you Topp twins and congratulations to you!
