Is there anything for North America....fuck....did I actually Just Refer To Canada As North America? Fuck.

Same.  It's just Bob and I doing this on our own dime still.  We don't have sponsorships or anything like that.  AND we are both working our normal jobs on top of everything else. Hopefully we can get it to some more cities, but be patient.

How much does it run to get a screening outside of the west coast? One of you have to travel with it?

I wore my Brian Walsby shirt to meet Chuck Palahniuk yesterday, to see if he was a fan.  He didn't mention anything about being a fan.

Very comfy shoes...and they were needed, since my wife and I stood in line for over 7 hours to meet him.   :o

Fuck, missed you there again, eh?  I'm back in SF Thursday.  If you're staying through the weekend, let's get some chow.  If not, I'll see you Monday night.

On that note, roll call for the 18th at Alamo?

Not to worry, I was a phoner.  And unfortunately, I won't be there on Monday  :(


Hope you will still make the movie though!  I'll get a hold of you shortly.

Saw it tonight.  Briefly met Patton.  Got shitty photo.  Good times all around.

Three word review: Go see it.

More tomorrow when I'm not so tired.

Saw it a few nights ago in SF. It was pretty good but gotta say I was a bit disappointed overall. Would have liked to see more extended live clips and maybe studio clips as well. The audio recording/editing of the interviews was very inconsistent which was a little distracting. Production quality overall could have been better IMO.

I'd give it something in the B-/C+ range. Possibly unrealistic expectations because of the subject matter.
