This film is not a docmentary on the band L7. There is some great live music in between short skits that are about todays music industry. L7 is a great band and has been around for a long time. Like most people with a brain they are sick of the industry manufacturing music and bands that have absolutly nothing to say or to do with anything except to get little kids to spend thier parents hard earned money on. Most of these new "musicians" arien't old enough to even understand the lyrics they're singing. L7 is a real band that write thier own songs. This video proves that you're not the only one out there wanting real music from real bands and that they truley exist. This Video ROCKS!!!

This is not a concert film or a documentary, it's a film made up of short skits lampooning the music industry interspersed with concert footage of L7. That being said, the film is excellent, although hampered by poor sound. This is OK enough during the skits, but a real drawback during the concert scenes. The skits don't have big laughs like THIS IS SPINAL TAP, but are still amusing and are very consistent, which is rare when dealing with episodic storylines. The film was mostly improvisational, so the gals aren't overly emoting or reading their dialogue instead of acting. Bryan Brown nearly steals the show as a sleazy record exec in a hilarious bit of acting.

All in all, a fun film and well worth the money.

These girls have more guts and balls than most rock bands these days. The amateurish, almost bootleg concert scenes make you think you're really at the club watching them and getting slammed around by the crowd. The skits are funny, like what 'L7 rate a song', and 'The lunch conference' are good enough to watch again and again as you wait for the next song to come on.

This video has the lineup of Suzi, Janet, Dee, and Gail.

This film is super funny and cool.

I hope this makes it to DVD!
