Do It Again screenings
So I'm sorry for the radio silence.
I wish I could explain, in 50 words, how challenging it has been to deal with the creative and business aspects of getting a film finished. But why bore everybody? We have great news...
“Do It Again,” about my (perhaps) irrational quest to reunite the Kinks, will be making its world premiere at the Rotterdam International Film Festival on Jan. 28. The film of my journey includes testimonies and music from Sting, Zooey Deschanel, Paul Weller, Robyn Hitchcock, Clive Davis, Peter Buck, Scott McCaughey, Warren Zanes and… Kinks fans everywhere...
The film will also be playing in Rotterdam on January 30 and 31 at the festival. Here are the specific dates and theaters:
01/28/2010 19:15 Pathé 5
01/30/2010 13:00 Pathé 1
01/31/2010 09:45 Cinerama 7
You can start ordering tickets online on 22nd of January through the website of the film festival: www.iffr.nl
Even if you can’t see the film in Rotterdam, we’ve already been invited to show the film at other festivals, including the Glasgow Film Festival (screening Feb. 21) and in my hometown in April at the Boston Independent Film Festival.
The best thing about the Boston screening: The theater serves beer!
Feel free to get in touch with any questions and I do hope to see some you at a screening.

House call. As long as you live in the United States or my plane ticket won't run more than $500, I'll come to your home with my iPod so I can share my favorite Kinks songs as well as tell stories about the making of this film. I'll also bring a rough cut along so you can get a sneak peek of the movie.
