This is a must watch for any Texan. I personally love documentaries/rockumentaries, and this one is top notch
I had no idea! That was a revelation...though one of the few as Philo said. Not near a deep enough dive into their process.Ag_07 said:

I was disappointed in this documentary. Disappointed that I didn't see it at Alamo Draft House like I should have! Great documentary. I agree that I would like to know how they wrote some of their songs. Where did the idea for Francine or Waiting on the Bus come from? I can't imagine the band sitting around a studio with an acoustic guitar or on a piano thoughtfully penning out the lyrics to Legs. I assume they were just jamming in a barn, and Billy sang whatever could fit with the riffs. Would have been nice to know.
He used to rip cigs and drink tab while coaching 3rd base when my brothers played little league with his sons.Ag_07 said:

Glad to see this show up on Netflix, really liked it. I do wish they had gone deeper into the songwriting and studio decisions, particularly as they went from the early albums into Eliminator and beyond but overall this was really good.

I was a child for the MTV era. Learned their music in reverse chronological order, so it just kept getting better.Potcake said:
They were my favorite band in my middle and high school years so I loved the early stuff. I kind of lost interest when they changed to fit the MTV mode. I'll definitely watch this.
Lamar Little League in Richmond, TX. He was actually a really good guy that was heavily involved with his kids lives when he wasn't touring from what I saw. He liked to be involved with the coaching when he had the time and was never a problem. The two things I remember about him were the 'Tab' soda and cigarettes.Willy Wonka said:where was that?Ban Cow Gas said:He used to rip cigs and drink tab while coaching 3rd base when my brothers played little league with his sons.Ag_07 said:

Pecan Grove area or thereabouts, right? At least, that's what I seem to remember.
