I had no idea that dude was so messed up. He's gotta be worse than Brian Wilson. The best part was his love for Mountain Dew. :rofl:

He seems like a fun guy

that was the best part of the movie..

hey you live in lewiston maine.. i live in augusta.. do you know any of the guys from cambiata? i go to school with one of their guitar players..

Nah I don't know any of those guys, just heard of them. I know a couple of the guys in Blame It On Dan, though (a band they've played with in the past). One of them was banging my ex-girlfriend's little sister, or something to that effect.

holy crap their lead singer is one of my best friends.. dustin? do you know him? was he the culprit?

cambiata sucks balls btw.

No, he's the new guy right? It was John, the guitarist, but they weren't actually banging. I think they wanted to or were kind of an item or something. Now he has a new girlfriend. I don't really know the details.

ps don't tell him that because that would be creepy.

haha lol no don't worry.. i only really know the new guy.

Finally someone makes a thread about this!

It sucks, but it'll do. Thanks :)

Is that the guy they found in a parking lot and made a movie about?

...at any point does he dress in drag to do a talent show?



I'm thinking of another movie I think.

Yeah this dude's a musician that's a manic depressive...wrong guy.

Daniel Johnston pretty much made his own movie.

And he made this shirt:

Exactly. I cried. I watched it a second time and cried again. Parts are pretty funny but uh, it's a sad movie.

When I'm down, really down
Nothin' matters, nothin' does.
I close my eyes, try to sleep
But I can't sleep, I can't sleep.
Please hear my cry for help and save me from myself.

i read about this dweeb in some women's magazine 2 years ago when there was nothing else to read in a waiting room. i cant imagine watching a movie about him since i almost switched to the gardening magazines

And famous mostly good bands did covers of his songs.

Well you're missing out. It's a pretty amazing documentary. I can't imagine anyone summing up Johnston's life in a few paragraphs in a woman's magazing. :erm:
