hey guys... can you do me a HUGE favor and post this up on any message boards that you goto even if there are other threads about the film (or bump it
if its already on a board). Also post it as bulletins on your Myspace, Facebook etc.
You can also add the pages to your friends (maybe top friends???) or even use the movie poster as a default picture or post it on your facebook wall.
Thanks everyone!!

I was really happy to hear that this didnt just turn into a fan film about Slapshot but a truthfull look into the history of the band and its members
as a whole. i havent seen it yet but from what I heard from Ian its pretty dark and makes a great documentary even if you know absolutely nothing
about Slapshot and hardcore. I hope this does well.

thanks BD, I appreciate it. If you think it would be okay and you dont mind sending out the bulletin a few times asking people to add that would be
cool. Thanks either way!!
Thanks to Boycott who I think reposted this on the B9 board too.

its confusing and I think that the actual screening tickets are still not listed yet even though they are suposed to be. The tickets for a single film
will be $9 to the best of my knowledge.
If anyone is interested please keep checking www.IFFBoston.org
Also PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE repost this bulletin anywhere that you go... message boards, myspace, facebook etc.
Thanks everyone!

This will make for a great documentary. Especially with the talent and the fact that the talent involved in filming it actually comes from the scene.
I will buy 2.
Each aspect of the soul has it's own part to play, but the ideal is harmonious agreement with reason and control.

"Chip on My Shoulder" follows the members of SLAPSHOT through their turbulent twenty-year history, documenting every up and down along the way. It is
an unflinching look into the life of a band that was seemingly destined to implode from its very inception.
"Chip on My Shoulder" is a story of friendship and betrayal, loss and redemption, self-destruction and sacrifice. Born in the streets and underground
music halls of Boston, SLAPSHOT went on to inspire millions worldwide while simultaneously tearing a group of friends apart.
Through hundreds of hours of the band's own archival footage, rare images, and revealing present-day interviews comes the true story of one of the
most influential hardcore bands of all time. It is a unique look at the ugly side of music — a side that few people have a chance to see. It is what
happens when sanity and stability are thrown to the wind in pursuit of passion, regardless of how destructive that passion may be and regardless of
how it will forever change the trajectory of people's lives.

What do you think the odds are on there being cross over drama between this and whatever it was that fucked up their House of Blues show in March?

Seeing how there are no bands playing and it's not even known if any band members will be there. Let's hope none.

How gay is it though that this is even the shadow of a possibility of happening?

Also check out this write up, how dramatic does that sound!?!
“The first time I met him, as soon as I laid eyes on him, I hated his guts. I couldn’t stand him.” – Jack “Choke” Kelly, speaking about his
bandmate, Mark McKay
Culled from personal video footage and in-depth interviews, CHIP ON MY SHOULDER chronicles the history of the Boston-based band Slapshot. Formed in
1985, when most rock bands were indulging in drugs and spraying their hair with Aquanet, Slapshot revived a fading straight-edge, hardcore scene,
putting Boston “back on the map” and assuming their rightful place in music history.
Directors Ian MacFarland and Anthony Moreschi focus primarily on the rivalry between abrasive front man Jack “Choke” Kelly and nice-guy
drummer Mark McKay. A classic case of opposites attracting, their personal relationship and a seemingly ever-changing lineup of musicians
fuels Slapshot’s evolving sound and results in the betrayal of the band’s founding father, Steve Risteen.
Narrated by punk pioneer Dave Smalley, this documentary features former roadies and a slew of interim band members while comprehensively archiving
good times, creative differences, and regrets––including one former member's premature death.
