Looks good, I'll check it out when it is released.

That sounds good. Shame it's only 3 episodes..
Another freegan service to sign up for.. If all 3 are released at once, i can do the intro month for free , assuming they have that

[Genebaby]

I guess it's 3 episodes cause they said all they wanted to say? Maybe?

Of course a bigger series would be great, there is a LOT to show and tell here.

[strangeways]

I will watch.

[Genebaby]

Ooh, it's about about now, I'll keep an eye out for it.

[Genebaby]

I saw the first episode, very cool, a lot of great footage and interviews.

[Genebaby]

Watched the whole lot, very cool show. Nice to see and hear some Tesla right there near the end.

I'm sure everyone here would dig this.

[birnie]

I'm 1 ep in.
Good to see some Skids in there

[Genebaby]

There's plenty of Skids with Snake a main part of the show. I dig the old footage of them with Seb.

I saw John Carobi play the whole Crue album in Sydney, but it was this doco that got me listenting to The Scream again after all these years.

I was interested in them because I heard they were working with Eddie Kramer, and there seemed to be a buzz about them.

At the time I had no idea who the band members were, ie that Bruce Bouillet and Juan Alderete were from Racer X, and I guessed when I found out that this was a chance to be more comercially recognised, which is no bad thing.

I gotta say, playing songs like these Bruce was a tasty guitarist!

I also found my old 5-track sampler cassette for the album. I forget where I got it, maybe from a magazine back then? I was surprised, happily, to find it where I thought it might be!
