I'd quite like to see 'The Filth and the Fury' on the big screen but I'm not sure about 'Festival', a documentary about the Newport Folk Festival in the early '60s which includes a stunningly young and beautiful Buffy Sainte-Marie but she only plays one song (and not even a complete song) - there's too much Joan Baez cozying up to Dylan for my liking but seeing Buffy up there on the screen bigly .... hmmmm.A couple of films I haven't seen are 'The Clash - Westway to the World' and a film of two live concerts by the Kinks. They might be interesting. There's a double bill of the Pistols and the Clash, so maybe that's the day to go to see both. There's a Prince film and the quite frankly pseudo-hippy nonsense that is much of 'Born to Boogie', but the live T.Rex on stage sequences are wonderful.
Of course, the major omission is 'SLADE in FLAME' - what a perfect opportunity to see one of the greatest rock films of all time...

I'm going to see Urgh! A Music War next Sunday. I've wanted to see that for about 20 years - what's the betting it's rubbish?!
