Comment
From the director himself: "It's a cheaper than cheap but truer than true document of what Detroit was then -- right before any explosion, when everyone was just someone in their basement, attic, loft space, and yes, even some in their garages. Doing what you do to do it with no vision of rock stardom or anything other than doing something with a spirit that didn't disagree with you. Everyone got together on the weekends, shared some ideas, had some fun and went home, back to work or wherever it was that those people went when they weren't out at the next show. ...Everyone knew and pretty much liked each other. It was all pretty cool. Now there's a little document of it. A rough, hazy little porthole for people to peer into." For more information, see Triple Tremelo (www.whitestripes.host.sk)
