The other comment says much of what I would have said had I got here first, but I saw Eggshells at the Texas Theater, an "art house" on Guadalupe Street (the "Drag") in Austin across from the UT campus. I wish I could remember for certain when it was, but my best guess is that it was sometime between 1969 and 1971. (Since I was at UT from 1969 to 1976, I suppose that I could have seen it after Chainsaw Massacre came out in 1974, but I have a pretty good reason for thinking that's not right.)
Eggshells wasn't very good, frankly, but I saw the hippie bus with the dome around town several times before and after I saw the movie. After TCM came out I was pleased that I accidentally got to see Hooper's first effort.
One correction: I don't think that the wedding scene was on the Texas State Capitol grounds. I'm pretty sure that it was shot in Wooldridge Park on Guadalupe Street between West 10th and West 9th Streets across the street from the Travis County Courthouse. Perhaps the wedding was at the capitol and I've forgotten it, but if so then some other scene was shot at Wooldridge, since there's an easily-recognizable gazebo in Wooldridge that can be seen in the film.
