Salad Days
MIDWEST PREMIERE
"Salad Days: The Birth of Punk in the Nation's Capital" is a comprehensive, honest and insightful look at the DC punk scene from the early 1980s to the decade's end. The film includes exclusive archival photographs, concert footage and interviews with dozens of bands, artists, label owners, fanzine publishers and others who helped mold and nurture DC's underground community during this inspired decade of music. As a 12 year old fanzine publisher, writer/director Scott Crawford witnessed many of the bands that would help define the DC aesthetic of the 1980s. Almost 30 years later, he Crawford spoke with John Stabb, Ian Mackaye, Henry Rollins, Dave Grohl, Alec Mackaye, many more and in the process, the story of arguably the most important punk communities of the '80s unfolded.
DIRECTED BY: Scott Crawford, USA, 2014, 95 min.
