Rock 'n Tokyo will be part of the Music Mondays, at the gretest and rockest movie theater in Austin - The Alamo Ritz !

It will be on the last Monday of August - 31st of August, at 10pm.

Here is what they say about RnT :

"Since Austin has practically become a sister city to Tokyo, with Japanese bands making Austin a home away from home and an indispensable stop on any North American tour, we feel we should hold up our end of the cultural exchange program with this exciting documentary.

It's a feverish tour through Tokyo focusing on such "rock and roll aliens" as Guitar Wolf, the 5-6-7-8's, Jet Boys and Nine. Pamela Valente's film takes the viewer on a personal journey through the day to day lives of these wild rock animals. Being a 24-hour punk maniac is difficult enough to pull off in the boring ol' USA, but to live life to the max in a respectable nation like Japan takes some serious dedication to the Art of True Wildness. This isn't one of those documentaries where a bunch of experts tell you what to think. No way, this is a solid, street-level view of the scene and the people who fearlessly, violently make it happen".
