Bulletin Board of Bad Behavior

I was given the dvd of the Fearless Freaks. It is a film about the band "The Flaming Lips." Band documentaries are usually crap. This was amazing. Certainly one to watch.

The fella who shot it has known the band for a very long time. Tons of the footage was taken before it was decided there was even going to be a film so there is a real naturalness about it all.

It's funny. It's sad. And I can say without doubt that if you were not a fan of the music you will be a fan of the band by the end of it.

I know the music types on here have all probably seen it a dozen times but it was a surprise to me.

I haven't seen it. Flaming Lips are pretty good musically, though.

i don't understand. i tried to find the dvd on amazon.com with no luck. then i looked into imdb.com and found no fearless freaks; under the term flaming lips i found merely this:
