This week Angela Jaeger (Author of I FEEL FAMOUS Punk Diaries 1977-1981 and member of bands such as PIGBAG, THE MONOCHROME SET, THE BUSH TETRAS & THE STARE KITS) joins me to discuss THE PUNK ROCK MOVIE.
We talk about Angela's feelings about publishing her personal diaries & how Thurston Moore and Byron Coley encouraged her to release them for everyone, being a teenage roadie and friend of Teenage Jesus & The Jerks, experiencing CBGB’s and Max's Kansas City as a teen, heading overseas to be part of the 1978 punk movement, writing your diary in code (in case your Mom finds and reads it!), performing in Japan with Pigbag, finding your fellow weirdos as a kid, getting up the nerve to go alone to your first club shows, hanging with The Cramps more than any other band, The Dead Boys, wearing garbage bags to rock shows, how Angela’s mom would let bands like The Raincoats, The Slits and Young Marble Giants crash at her home when they were touring, insights into Tier 3, the club her sister ran, the director Don Letts, The Roxy's 100 days of punk, how the film might have the best ever footage of The Sex Pistols, singing and speaking with a fake British accent, having to grow up quick and the darker sides of the punk scenes, the incredible footage of The Slits and The Clash on the White Riot tour and so much more.
So let's put on a garbage bag dress and dance in front of our mirrors on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie!
