some ignorant little pot smoking jackass will say "The Union- it will really open up your eyes about marijuana"

but a good one to watch is "Tyson"

i dont really like the music cuz im not big on metal but "anvil, the story of anvil" was amazing... inspiring, funny, sad, etc...

"man on a wire" is also great

and the white stripes "under the northern lights" is really good

Anybody know of a place to watch Exit Through The Giftshop online? It was on that link that was posted but it sounds like it's under water and I can't understand much. A better version would be appreciated!

exit through the gift shop was great
kind of weird ones but ...
bomb- about graffiti
THe wild and wonderful whites of west virgina- so fucked up
When you're strange - about the doors
winnebago man
carts of darkness- about homeless guys in the Van who bomb hills in shopping carts
