NIRVANA: LIVE! TONIGHT! SOLD OUT!! w/ Gary Jarman (The Cribs)

This week, we talk to Gary Jarman of the UK band The Cribs, who chose a film so close to his (and his brother’s) heart, NIRVANA LIVE! TONIGHT! SOLD OUT!  We discussed the massive influence this VHS tape had on the Jarman family and their future in rock, from their decision not to play encores to their affinity for putting noise into their melodies. We also discuss what it was like to come from such a small town where they had never seen anything on a punk level before, the concept of selling out, writing music or lyrics first, saving up stationary store coupons to buy Nirvana cassettes, Britpop, opening for Nirvana the day their album went gold, sabotaging your own live show, dealing with tabloids and the British music press, fantasizing about destroying the Top Of The Pops studio, not playing encores & the endless search for “the next Nirvana.”So come dive into the drum set on this episode of Revolutions Per Movie!GARY JARMAN:cribs.comNew episodes of Revolutions Per Movies are released every Thursday, and if you like the show, please subscribe, rate, and review it on your favorite podcast app.The show is also a completely independent affair, so the best way to support the show is through our Patreon at patreon.com/revolutionspermovie, where you can get weekly bonus episodes and exclusive goods sent to you just for joining.patreon.com/revolutionspermovie@revolutionspermvoieX, BlueSky: @revpermovieTheme by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.comArtwork by Jeff T.

STOREFRONT HITCHCOCK w/ Devon Bryant

This week, we talk to L.A.-based musician and podcast producer Devon Bryant, maybe the most obsessed fan of their chosen subject we’ve had on the show to date. We discuss the 1998 Robyn Hitchcock performance film Storefront Hitchcock and how director Jonathan Demme honored the weirdness that is a Robyn performance. Along the way, we talk about the journey to loving music you couldn’t stand on first listen, the success and failure rate of stage banter, the daunting nature of massive discographies, and if we are lyrics first people or music first people.So, as Robyn says, ‘yip yip yip’ as we push deep into the mind of Storefront Hitchcock.Theme by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.comArtwork by Jeff T.
