This week, we are joined by documentary filmmaker SCOTT CRAWFORD to discuss the director’s cut of his D.C. hardcore punk documentary, SALAD DAYS!!! We discussed Scott’s punk fanzine that he published in 7th grade, unlocking the mystery of VOID, the sadness of MINOR THREAT’s final EP Salad Days, Trouser Press Magazine, devouring punk rock scene reports, seeing FUGAZI play in a hippie cafeteria, witnessing RITES OF SPRING’s legendary live shows, being able to name all members of BEEFEATER, the divisiveness within its own scene, MARGINAL MAN, Rock against Reagan, do our first punk shows really count as punk shows, renting out VFA halls to put on punk shows, self-policing all ages show in D.C., 9:30 Club, what made Scott revisit the film to make a director’s cut (the answer might surprise you!), growing up in a band, the violence that came into the scene, Revolution Summer, Brian Baker’s interview style, Faith Vs. Void, punk shifting towards metal, getting hit in the face by a guitar headstock, how Scott got access to footage of SOA & BAD BRAINS, Positive Force, and learning never to have your band follow Fugazi live!!!
So we’ll see you in the pit (and pick your friend if they fall down) in this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!!!
