Scott Crawford and Jim Saah are halfway through production for their movie entitled “Salad Days: The DC Punk Revolution“, a documentary on the 80s Washington, DC hardcore punk scene, to be released in 2013.
Official word
“Salad Days: The HarDCore Punk Revolution” will be the most comprehensive, honest and insightful look at the DC punk scene from the early 1980s to the decade’s end. The film will include exclusive archival photographs, concert footage and interviews with dozens of bands, artists, label owners, zine publishers and others who helped mold and nurture DC’s underground community during this inspired decade of music.
As a 12 year old fanzine publisher, writer/director Scott Crawford witnessed many of the bands that would help define the DC aesthetic of the 1980s. Almost 30 years later, he interviews many of the same personalities he spoke with as a wide-eyed fan. In the process, the story of arguably the most important punk communities of the ’80s unfolds.
