Just watched it. One of the better band documentaries I've seen...

Even if you're a casual fan, I highly recommend it. I have to admit I got a little misty at the end.

    I watched this the other night on Netflix.

    Tragic that D. Boon passed away at such a young age. Thought it was a great story of friendship between Watt and Boon.

    As a fan of fIREHOSE, it was interesting to see how Watt, et all got their start.

    Great film. Watched it after reading Our Band Could Be Your Life. Picked up Ball Hog cd last weekend on RSD for $2. Didn't know it was a freakin all-star album! Even without all the singers, Nels Cline is everywhere, and that dude's a god!

    Came across a used copy of the 2- disc DVD recently and watched it again last night. It had been a few years. Simply blown away all over again. What an incredible band and an amazing story. I believe the video is currently out of print. If that's true, it kind of blows my mind.
