Transcribe →REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE LIVE: Kevin McDonald Superstar
Apr 901:02:54Tap to summarizeThis week, we present a very special Revolutions Per Movie Live recording of Kevin McDonald Superstar, a rip-roaring comic rock opera performed to a sold-out crowd at the Clinton Street Theater in Portland, Oregon. Written by McDonald, Kevin McDonald Superstar is based on the true story of his relationship with his girlfriend “Cheater” and a stupid, awful thing he did in New York City while traveling with the Kids in the Hall.The show boasts an eclectic cast of stellar comedic and musical talent, including Scott McCaughey (of The Minus 5 & R.E.M.), Chaki (The Funk Wizard! of RPM's URGH and Midnight Special podcasts), Jennifer Faust & Brian Kunkel (of Denim Wedding), Suzanne Foster, Julia Corral, and, of course, Kevin McDonald himself. AND… exclusively for RPM’s Patreon supporters: Following the Superstar performance, Kevin and I had an out-of-control live interview, including the most excitable, whirling dervish Q&A ever committed — where Kevin talked about everything from the creation of various Kids In The Hall sketches to his tragic high school rock band, to the night the Kids In The Hall had to bail Bruce out of jail after insulting a member of The Black Crowes. It was incredible! This episode is available to supporters of the Revolutions Per Movie Patreon over at patreon.com/revolutionspermovie. I hope you'll consider joining for $5 per month, to get the RPM 7” flexidisc and access to 117 exclusive bonus RPM episodes like this one.So prepare to rock out and laugh out loud at this unforgettable rock opera that showcases McDonald’s signature offbeat humor and love of music, delivered in the way only he can.SOCIALS:@revolutionspermovieBlueSky: @revpermovieTHEME by Eyelids 'My Caved In Mind'www.musicofeyelids.bandcamp.com ARTWORK by Jeff T.

Apr 700:46:08Tap to summarizeWelcome to our bi-monthly ENCORE PRESENTATION of classic REVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE episodes from the vault! This was a favorite of mine from a few years back, with punk legend, KT Kincaid of NEO BOYS, who came on the show to discuss our heroes, THE SLITS, and the amazing doc about their genius, HERE TO BE HEARD. Plus, I love getting to spend time with someone who helped bring an embryonic music scene to life, even as they had to push against the difficulties posed by local music club bans, volatile press, and a general public that feared any type of punk existence on the planet.(Episode 40 originally aired on June 4th, 2024). ORIGINAL SHOW NOTES:This week, we talked to musician and vital member of the late 70s/early 80s Portland Punk Scene, KT Kincaid, who picked the incredible doc, THE SLITS HERE TO BE HEARD. We discussed her and her sister’s importance in the creation of the punk scene, their band NEO BOYS (whose recordings were reissued on K Records), discovering Bowie, seeing punkers before hearing punk, the rarity of finding punk records, picking the bass guitar over other instruments, nobody sounding like The Slits & the genius of Viv Albertine’s guitar playing, being in a band with your sister, getting 50 people to come to a show, the video for ‘Earthbeat’, The Flowers Of Romance, the punk collective mindset & loyalties in the punk scene, opening for Television, practicing non-stop in your first band & taking it so seriously, pooling money to buy records, the violence towards the early punk scene, the gang mentality of being in a band, the magic of chance meetings, getting pissed at the Guardian’s review of this documentary, and Chris reads the minutes from one of the Portland punk collective’s meetings from the late 70s.Nothing typical here as we dive into this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie!NEO BOYS:https://neoboys.bandcamp.com/album/sooner-or-later-vol-1-klp242THE SLITS ‘Earthbeat’ videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqiFYcKEhxsREVOLUTIONS PER MOVIE:Host Chris Slusarenko (Eyelids, Guided By Voices, owner of Clinton Street Video rental store) is joined by actors, musicians, comedians, writers & directors who each week pick out their favorite music documentary, musical, music-themed fiction film, or music videos to discuss.
