DIG! XX

WFMU

Bigger, better, crazier expanded reimagining of the original cut – reminds us why the original is canon and why sometimes, more is better.

Monty Hall

20 years ago, Sundance was rocked by DIG!, Ondi Timoner's genre-topping rockumentary about two Gen-X bands and their journey to alt-rock glory. Shot over nearly a decade, DIG! explores the collision of art and commerce through the star-crossed friendship and bitter rivalry of dueling 90s bands The Dandy Warhols and The Brian Jonestown Massacre. Through their loves and obsessions, gigs, arrests and death threats, uppers and downers, and ultimately to their shot at mainstream success, they stage a self-proclaimed revolution in the music industry.Hosted by DJ Pseu Braun and a special screening of the 1998 Brian jonestown massacre live from wfmu's East Orange studio. All proceeds benefit WFMUWFMU Radio’s Monty Hall, located at 43 Montgomery Street in downtown Jersey City (mere steps from the Exchange Place PATH station).

"'DIG! XX' Explodes and Rebuilds a Cult Rock Doc."—ROLLING STONE "It rocks. The first movie rocked and this version rocks even harder."—<a href="http://rogerebert.com/" title="http://rogerebert.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ROGEREBERT.COM</a> "With the new DIG! XX, Timoner takes one of the greatest rock docs ever made and makes it even better"—FILM THREAT "After all these years, this documentary is still as jarring, hilarious, and deeply strange as it ever was, and these new additions only make this shocking story even more astonishing."—COLLIDER ""Grade A-... DIG! XX," consciously or not, starkly demystifies the f*cked-up tortured artist fairytale."—THE PLAYLIST
