The Other F Word

I was lucky enough to catch an early screening of an excellent new documentary called The Other F Word last night as part of the Woodstock Film Festival. Based mostly around Pennywise singer, Jim Lindberg, it also includes appearances by Tony Adolescent, Art Alexakis, Joe Escalante, Josh Freese, Fat Mike, Flea, Lars Frederiksen, Jack Grisham, Brett Gurewitz, Tony Hawk, Tim McIlrath, Mark Mothersbaugh, Duane Peters, Ron Reyes, and a few others.

It attempts (and succeeds wildly) in describing the challenges in starting out an anti-authoritarian punk rock musician, and turning into a middle aged parent, and still playing punk rock. In turns it’s touching, thought provoking, inspirational, and very funny. I wholeheartedly suggest looking for a screening near you, and keeping an eye out for it when it’s released on DVD. This will be up there with Dogtown & Z-Boys when it comes to great films originating from the California counter-cultural scene.

Here are a couple of clips to whet your appetite:
