REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE ENCORE PRESENTATION: 'ATHENS, GA. : INSIDE/OUT' w/ Vanessa Briscoe Hay (of Pylon & Pylon Reenactment Society)
Hey everyone...welcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault! On this episode, I was joined by Vanessa Briscoe Hay of Pylon & PRS (Pylon Reenactment Society), who brought so much incredible history and focus in our discussion on the Athens, GA, scene she was part of and the film that caused multitudes of college students to move there: ATHENS, GA: INSIDE/OUT. (Episode 22 originally aired on Feb. 8th, 2024).
The original podcast show notes:
This week, we talk to Vanessa Briscoe Hay of Pylon & PRS (Pylon Reenactment Society), who chose the film ATHENS, GA: INSIDE/OUT to discuss. We also talk about her growing up in Georgia, her introduction to the Athens music scene, auditioning for Pylon, how the band initially was a conceptual musical art project, how they wrote their songs and lyrics, R.E.M. emergence & the growth of the Athens music scene, the economics of being a musician, why bands break up, the Pylon Reenactment Society’s origin story, the beauty of being irresponsible, which member in Pylon is an expert at recreating plane crashes (!?!) & more!
So Hey Kids! Don’t rock n’ roll, no no no no…on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.
