“D.I.Y. OR DIE: HOW TO SURVIVE AS AN INDEPENDENT ARTIST”
An arts documentary by filmmaker: MICHAEL W. DEAN

A FILM BY, FOR AND ABOUT INDEPENDENT ARTISTS.
www.DIYorDie.org

FEATURING
In-Depth Interviews including: Ian MacKaye (Fugazi), Lydia Lunch, Mike Watt (Minutemen) j Mascis (Dinosaur jr.), Jim Rose (Jim Rose Sideshow), Jim Thirlwell (Foetus), Richard Kern (Filmmaker), Ron Asheton (Stooges), Madigan Shive (Bonfire Madigan), Dave Brockie (Gwar) and more

OVERVIEW
A one-hour documentary depicting the methods and motivations of independent
American artists in various genres and mediums. “D.I.Y. or DIE” celebrates Underdog. A collection of portraits and profiles from a fascinating group of underground icons and overlooked unknowns working in various media including print, film, graphic art, performance art, and music. The two-dozen interviewees are all true mavericks that operate outside of any "studio system", are beholden to no one, and produce influential and quality art regardless of a continuous paycheck

CRITERIA
Our basic requirement for inclusion is that all subjects meet at least
three of the following:
1. They do something very unique.
2. They've influenced many
people in their respective medium.
3. They make a living at art.
4. They impress the heck out of us.

UNIQUE FACTOR
A main difference between this and other arts documentaries is that the people included are given face time based on what they say rather than who they are. The unknowns are given equal weight with the famous interviewees.
Everyone shouts from an equal ground.

Is the Irish documentary on both nights or just Friday?
Can I hurl stuff at the screen when that cunt from Refused comes on?
Is there footage of Cheapskate or is it just Burkie?
documentary both nights i guess if people wanna see it?
it was shown at a couple of warzone fests in the past, some people may have seen it already.
no cheapskate, just burkie "in disguise"

dont know about throwing stuff at screen, but you can egg on rob kito, who is arguing with dennis about "punk rock being sacred"!
quality stuff...


Cans & biftys allowed?

not too sure...
 
cans and biftys

Spacecraft is in a residential area so it's probably best not to bring too much attention to it. It'd probably be better if you didn't bring Cans and biftys

any directions for us coolie folk?
the only bus i know about is the 84! hows that for being a bogger!

will zines be for sale seeing as its in the holy virility place...... i wanna stock up.
it's basically walk up amiens st (where connolly station is) and keep going till it stops being amiens st and starts being the north strand road. (you'll have crossed the canal by then.) strandville ave is a wee lane off to the right, and right down the end is a big metal gate tingy with a wee door in it. dunno if they're gonna open the entire thing or just the door or what. sorry that's a bit vague but at least you get the general idea.
 
There is actually NO SCREENING of DIY or DIE on the Friday night.

The only Dublin screening will be on the Thursday night

Can people please spread the word !!!!!

thanks.

seeyou on Thursday night before 8.30 so?
