Special Features: Post-screening Q&A with filmmakers Jeff Krulik and Richard Taylor plus members of RAZZ
Razz were one of the most explosive, entertaining and influential live bands in 1970s Washington, DC. From their start in 1971 to breakup in late 1979, a cast of talent — including lead singer Michael Reidy, drummer Doug Tull, bassist Ted Niceley and guitarists Bill Craig, Abaad Behram and the late Tommy Keene — became a wholly original rock band amid a club scene dominated by cover bands, and a record industry that found them impossible to label. This documentary tells the story of Razz, and will be screened in its extended "Director's Cut" form one time only at this special event, allowing the filmmakers to share as much of the story of Razz as possible — whether you're being introduced to their amazing tale for the first time now, or recall first-hand the many raucous nights at the Keg, Varsity Grill, Psyche Delly and more. DIR/PROD Jeff Krulik, Richard Taylor. Total program approximately 180 min.
