Roger Ebert is a renowned film critic and an excellent and amusing writer. He also wrote a couple of screenplays with Russ Meyer: Beyond The Valley Of The Dolls (produced) and the abortive Sex Pistols film Who Killed Bambi? (unproduced, as Malcolm McLaren ran out of money). He’s just posted the screenplay for the latter. Good Lord.
I originally picked up a Rocknerd account so I could review international acts from non-crap bands that made it to the great southern lands. Well, that was over a year ago and I have a small backlog of material. So using a stack method (last in, first out) this piece will be brief review of two reformed 80s semi-intelligentsia synth-pop acts who performed at the Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne on Wednesday April 21 – Tears for Fears and Spandau Ballet. OK, so this is Rocknerd, not Popnerd. Next review will be the Buzzcocks.
