        Really good documentary, even if you are not into their music. A lot of great interviews with interesting people.

        Sometimes sad, but always entertaining look at one of the founding fathers of alternative rock/ punk music. My favorite parts are watching the muscular, body-builder-like George Hurley wail on the drums with this unicorn hair-do.
