we also watched the Ted Nugent Instructional tape, highlight being Ted "hunting" and "killing" a synthsezier. That and him trying to get you to purchase his brand of doe urine

I want to see the new Metallica doc if only for the moment when Dave Mustaine breaks down and cries in it.

Where can the Year and a Half in the Life of... be found? Is it on DVD?

Uh, is this really a movie worth seeing? Could I just listen to "The Troggs Tapes" and get the same effect? Isn't it 2 hrs + long?

As is mentioned earlier, yes it's on DVD.

It's a lot more in-depth than the Troggs Tapes. If you want a laugh at the expense of overblown metalheads, then it is worth seeing.

Off topic, but is "Year of the Horse" worth seeing. I'm not so taken w/ his Neilness anymore, and I hear it's mostly a dull watch. Any highlights?

i don't know about year of the horse, but i know that neil young made a movie... some kind of art film. you should try and track that down.

if you are a big neil fan, you'll probably enjoy _year of the horse_

if not, you shouldn't see it

very very long versions of many of the songs

i liked it, tho

Yeah, I love Neil Young, but he tends to be more of a train wreck than even Metallica. He's made a several "movies", haven't seen "Year of the Horse", but "Journey Through the Past" and "Human Highway" are the two earlier art films. "Human Highway is especially worthwhile, starring Devo, Dennis Hopper, Dean Stockwell, and Sally Kirkland, with Himself playing loveable doofus Lionel Switch. Total acid casualty of a movie. Good footage of Devo covering the classic Kingston Trio tune, "It Takes a Worried Man"- "Everything's fucked up/ It's all coming down/ That's why it takes a worried man/ To sing a worried song."

Although this video is primarily concert footage, nearly a quarter of it is dedicated to documenting the making of 1995's Red Medicine at Inner Ear Studios in Washington DC. This film is not entertaining or amusing according to your criteria, but as an indepth look into the workings of Fugazi, this film hits the mark. I highly recommend this release to any fan of Fugazi.

It's a great film, I've watched it more than any other DVD I own, and I can only view it in black and white my player isn't too happy with Region 0 discs.
