Lookit what I found, at long last! Turns out, it was in a box of DVDs at my old apartment that I finally, FINALLY moved all my stuff out of today. It's too late on a work night to watch it now, but maybe I'll give it a rewatch this weekend.

You guys know I’m old, but I’m not old enough to remember the first Woodstock. I do, however, remember Woodstock ‘94, which was at the height of my pre-teen summer of music obsession and an absolute fantasy compared to what came five years later.
I was going into my Senior year of high school and had friends who went to this show. I remember everything this article talks about -- Kurt Loder badmouthing Limp Bizkit, the fire, the rape allegations (which, according to one of my friends, were very true and way worse than what the news made them out to be). 
I’m sure I’ll watch this, but I’m already remembering my buddy crying when she called home to talk about all the terrible stuff that had gone down. Honestly surprised they hadn’t made a disaster-doc about it before now. It’s only been 23 years.

Lecture 6: “Subterranean Homesick Blues” (1965): This tune, from Bob Dylan’s fifth studio album Bringing it All Back Home (1965), was his first Top 40 hit, reaching #39 on the Billboard 100. Dylan drew on influences from Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Chuck Berry, and the beat poet Jack Kerouac when writing “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” a song that alludes to contemporary issues such as  the emerging counter-culture and civil rights. The early music video was also innovative, particularly Dylan’s use of giant cue cards. Fun fact: Beat poet and counter-cultural icon Allen Ginsberg (with the beard) can be seen in the background, to the left. This scene is a clip from the late, great D. A. Pennebaker‘s landmark rockumentary, Don’t Look Back (1967).

How does one find these rock documentaries? I have looked and can’t find them, but I have literally only googled “rock documentary” so I’m not exactly sure how to find them hahah.
You have to be specific! Search rockumentary and you’ll get a lot of historic ones like the Beatles, LZ etc but if you search *band name rockumentary* it should come up. Around 2016ish almost every band I knew was releasing them. I actually think I’m in 2 haha - K

The season of giving thanks is officially upon us! This is just such a beautiful film capturing a moment both bittersweet and cumulative of all the history of The Band. The theater I saw this in cranked up the volume on the music sections and despite watching it every year for the past 3 or 4 years, I had forgotten just how energized this film makes me (Neil Diamond being the one and only low point). The audio for the interviews was significantly lower than the concert footage, but it still worked for me overall. I really noticed how the sections and performances were tied together thematically. I also think that there's a undercurrent of politics that goes untouched. My dad, upon leaving the movie theater remarked, "It sure was a different time." I will note that the previews consisted of a voice over from Robbie Robertson (that had been advertised as a special introduction from him) over clips from the film, and then they played a highlight reel of just his parts as tribute. It felt really weird and inflated when the movie was about to be shown. Don't play a highlight reel when we're about to experience the whole thing! I think it would have been better to just have an in memorium at the very end. (Alright, I had to get that out of the way). I really love how this is not a completely polished product, you see some of the sausage getting made and I love that for it. Also having just seen Mavis Staples in concert this last week (aka God's gift to the world) sing The Weight with local rock hero Grace Potter, seeing her in this felt extra special, and that section received the only full audience round of applause of the night. I guess I had also forgotten that Pops gets a verse on The Weight and delivers it so so nicely. I need to start a new paragraph just to talk about Rick Danko and how he oozes a sweetness that cannot be named. He's just such a jolly player and totally buoyant, just so talented. Rick Danko is the ideal man. My best friend Lynn, turned to me and said, look at the bassist, during the Dylan bit because Rick looks like a Muppet. It is sobering to see him mention something about drug use and the rest of the guys kind of joke and chuckle while he remains stone faced. Marc Maron mentioned thinking about him a lot and how sweet he was the other week to Joan Baez, and I completely relate to that. It Makes No Difference is just a stunning song, performed so magnificently and I just have to wonder, who hurt you, Rick? His vocal talents and joyful bass playing, along with the fiddling, are a wonderfully captured gift. I love Rick Danko and will think about him so much, always. Also Robbie Robertson rocked that fuchsia scarf so hard while absolutely shredding the guitar throughout this night. I loved seeing all his interviews, as he oddly kind of seems the most mature. I loved hearing about Garth teaching music lessons for a price. Richard Manuel had my favorite voice out of the guys, but I always thought I liked Levon's songs the best (I've kinda come around to Rick having my fav songs though). I plan on watching all the docs I can this month devoted to The Band. I'm so long overdue on Festival Express, but hopefully I'll be able to find: Once Were Brothers: Robbie Robertson and The Band, Ain’t in It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm, Revisiting the Last Waltz, and Bob Dylan & The Band: Down In The Flood. I hope you join me! Now let's take it from the top!

Special screening of the re-release of #anvilthestoryofanvil #documentary followed by live performance from @anvil.metal. Incredible time. I first met #Anvil in 2009. I was playing drums for Beautiful Creatures at the #rocklahoma festival. We shared a connecting flight from Dallas & a shuttle to the hotel w/ them. Got to know them a bit back then. Great dudes. So happy to reconnect last night, especially w/ my #drummer brother #robbreiner. The #film is coming out again soon. You must see it. It’s a beautiful & hopeful story, very funny, & well done. Here’s a few frames from last night. Went w/ my good mate @jamesgoldingmusic. #metalonmetal 🤘🏻 @lipsanvil @steveo #metal #rockumentary #musicdocumentary #musicfilm #sabantheatre #beverlyhills #music #musician #musicians #concertphoto #musicislife #inspiration #musiclover #rockconcert #rockshow #filmscreening #heavymetalband #heavymetalpioneers #heavymetal #anvilband #rocknroll https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci4I1u_OfEp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
