DOKUMENTATION - SALAD DAYS - A DECADE OF PUNK IN WASHINGTON

Salad Days: A Decade Of Punk In Washington, DC (1980-90) Critically acclaimed

documentary chronicling the rise of punk rock in Washington, DC "Salad Days: A

Decade of Punk in Washington, DC (1980-90)" examines the early DIY punk scene in

the Nation's Capital. It was a decade when seminal bands like Bad Brains, Minor

Threat, Government Issue, Scream, Void, Faith, Rites of Spring, Marginal Man,

Fugazi, and others released their own records and booked their own shows-without

major record label constraints or mainstream media scrutiny. Contextually, it was a

cultural watershed that predated the alternative music explosion of the 1990s (and

the industry's subsequent implosion). Thirty years later, DC's original DIY punk spirit

serves as a reminder of the hopefulness of youth, the power of community and the

strength of conviction. Not rated, region 0. Live performances by Fugazi, Government

Issue, Gray Matter, Marginal Man, Beefeater, Embrace, Holy Rollers, and Soulside

Additional interviews with Henry Rollins, Ian MacKaye, Kevin Seconds, Brian Baker,
