'We Jam Econo'

Midnight showing on the big screen at Coolidge last night. Interviews with (among others) Byron Coley, Greg Ginn, Ian MacKaye and Henry Rollins, as well as a ton of live footage. Running commentary/narrative by Mike Watt and George Hurley made up most of the narrative structure of the documentary. Naturally, I'm way too psyched/starstruck by the entire thing to comment on it with anything approaching objectivity.

Got a chance to speak to one of the filmmakers, too, which was a treat.

I'm gonna have to re-read the chapter on the Minutemen in Azerad's 'Our Band Could Be Your Life' now.
