I am embarrassed I didn’t not think of Jesus of Montreal for last weeks poll question, its an amazing movie and I even have a copy in my collection!
As for rock and roll movies, i guess I am partial to more the punkish side of things. I loved Sid and nancy with gary oldman and Velvet goldmine I remember sticking with me despite its flaws. I saw most the Penelope spheeris series of films when they came out but i dont think they hold up. For concert rock films, Urgh a music war is my go to always!
“Urgh! A Music War”? Some kind of music documentary? Huh. Can’t have anyone famous in it, ‘cause I never…. wait, Oingo Boingo? XTC? Devo?! THE POLICE?! How have I never heard of this movie?? Thanks, Vince!
Max Urgh is an incredible document of weirdness. Klaus Nomi is in it! Invisible Sex singing “valium”! It isn’t so easy to see but it’s a ride.
