Exclusive: Former CBS Entertainment President Kelly Kahl and Cannonball Productions principals Sean Hanish and Paul Jaconi-Biery have completed principal photography on a documentary series about the famed 1982 Milwaukee Brewers.
Just a Bit Outside: The Story of the 1982 Milwaukee Brewers chronicles the ups-and-downs of an almost championship season. The story is about the love affair between a down-on-its-luck blue collar city, and a perfectly matched blue-collar team — one that continues to this day, 40 years later.
The ’82 Brewers, known affectionately as “Harvey’s Wallbangers,” made it all the way to Game 7 of the World Series, only to lose. But then, in their lowest moment, the city threw the Brewers a parade that rivaled any celebration thrown for a team winning the World Series.
“They say never meet your heroes because they are bound to disappoint. But I can attest, these ballplayers deliver insights, recollections and stories about the magical summer of...

The last music related film that I saw and thoroughly enjoyed was Foo Fighters: Back And Forth. Before that it was It Might Get Loud. I actually went to the theater to see that one. Rock docs and films are some of my favorites. I haven't seen everything but I'm working my way through them. I can tell you I'm definitely interested in Metallica Through The Never even before I saw this first trailer. The music flick is a blend of live concert footage and a story starring Dane Dehaan (The...

Who knew Dave Grohl would become such a film festival fixture? As if his first two lives — as drummer for Nirvana and then lifeforce of Foo Fighters — weren’t enough, Grohl was showcased in a comprehensive documentary, “Foo Fighters: Back and Forth,” directed by Oscar-winning documentarian James Moll that screened at the SXSW Film Festival in 2011 and won a Grammy. His band put on a fast-and-furious show in downtown Austin right after the premiere that had enough energy to keep the lights on in Texas for a millennium. (He's heading back to SXSW to deliver a key note address at the 2013 edition in March.) Now Grohl is bringing his formula a step further with “Sound City,” his directorial debut. The film, which landed in the Documentary Premieres section of the Sundance Film Festival program, is Grohl’s love letter to analog recording through looking at the life of the Neve...

After having his musical career extensively documented last year in the film Foo Fighters: Back and Forth, it appears that Dave Grohl has been bitten by the filmmaking bug and decided to get behind the camera himself. (He's also working on a comedy series for FX, believe it or not.) For his directorial debut, Sound City, he offers up another documentary with a personal angle to it, but this one also covers an important piece of rock n' roll history. The doc revolves around the recording studio of the same name, which was based in Van Nuys, California, and served as the birthplace of many classic albums including Fleetwood Mac's Rumours, Neil Young's After the Gold Rush, and Nirvana's Nevermind. Last year the recording studio shut down and Grohl himself purchased the Neve 8028 recording console, which is part of what inspired him to make the film. Featuring...

There is much to discuss about last night's Grammy Awards, but before I start a lot of trash talk, I want to honor the music legend that was Whitney Houston.
I was out for dinner when I got a text with the news and spent the remainder of the night into the early hours trying to find a way to process it. Even typing this out now seems like it shouldn't be happening. Her talent was immeasurable and it is apparent in the words of her close friends that she was someone who brought light and love into many lives. Many of you probably have specific memories with certain songs. I don't have a specific memory but hearing just her name reminds me of almost two decades of change in my life and in hers.

This year marks the twentieth anniversary of enduring five-piece rock band Pearl Jam, and Almost Famous filmmaker Cameron Crowe’s documentary Pearl Jam Twenty is a thorough tribute to their undeniable part of rock ‘n’ roll history.
Crowe’s treasure trove of ephemera and archival footage is a Pj fan’s dream, chronicling the street-level beginnings of the passionate garage band and their meteoric ascent to sold out arenas, all accompanied by their heartfelt lyrics, which take new meaning throughout the film’s compelling context.
Born in the Seattle “grunge movement” from the ashes of an earlier incarnation, Pearl Jam arose after the tragic overdose of Mother Love Bone lead singer and driving force Andy Wood. Members of the band fight back tears two decades later, but Wood’s untimely death was an early lesson about drugs that shocked them into avoiding the music industry’s all-too familiar fate. By fortunate circumstance,...
Crowe’s treasure trove of ephemera and archival footage is a Pj fan’s dream, chronicling the street-level beginnings of the passionate garage band and their meteoric ascent to sold out arenas, all accompanied by their heartfelt lyrics, which take new meaning throughout the film’s compelling context.

Stuck for something last-minute to buy your beloved Dad this coming Sunday? Well, fear not, for below are a few suggestions from us to show your cinephile pops exactly how much he means to you on Father’s Day.
And even better, they’re all pretty much brand spanking new, so chances are he won’t have already bought them for himself.
Warning, the following post contains way too much testosterone, and adheres to various stereotypes of masculinity. I can practically smell the stubble from here…
Apocalypse Now
It had to get a high-definition release treatment that matched the Herculean effort that it took to make the film in the first place, and in this superior special edition package that achievement has been realised in some style. The film itself is epic, and includes too many brilliant performances to count off – but most notably Martin Sheen and Marlon Brando – and the visuals are jaw-dropping.

In case you weren’t aware of this massive Foo Fighters success, we’ll inform you a little bit of the band’s latest news, before we get to the expansion of the group’s tour. ‘Wasting Light’, which is the legendary group’s seventh album, dropped back in April via Roswell and RCA.

Creating a band is not as easy as it looks. Between conflicting personalities, differing musical visions, and the task of making and promoting albums, the process inevitably has some growing pains. Comprised of surprisingly candid interviews from current and former band members to moving concert footage to recent recording sessions, Foo Fighters: Back And Forth gives a rare glimpse into what it means to create, be in, and sustain a band.

It’s stories like this that really make my day! As a fan of the band Foo Fighters, I was stoked to find out about their new documentary Foo Fighters: Back And Forth. Not only is it being screened at this years SXSW Festival, but they are bringing it to over 80 theaters across the Us for one night only, April 5th. Not only do fans get a night of Foo-tastic movie magic, but they also get to view a special live performance of their new album Wasting Light… the entire way through… a week before it’s release!
Foo Fighters Film + Foo Fighters Performance = Awazing!!! (For those of you that don’t speak Melissa, Awazing is the combination of something that is both Awesome and Amazing!)
Here is a little treat for you… Rope, the firs.t single from the Foo Fighters new album Wasting Light
