This documentary about the kings of homocore- Pansy Division- was assembled by Director Michael Carmona and PD's bassist Chris Freeman. "Life In A Gay Rock Band" starts with co-founders Chris Freeman & Jon Ginoli's pre-PD bands (The Attachments & The Outnumbered respectively) & their reactions to the prevalent San Francisco gay scene of disco & show tunes. They joined the radical new queer scene that came out of organizations like ACT-UP & Queernation, clubs like Klubstitute, & zines like Tom Jennings' Homocore, and ran with queer activists & punx like Matt Wobensmith (Outpunk Records). Along with riotgrrl, queer core created a perfect storm of explicitly "out" gay & gay-friendly bands- from Bikini Kill to Tribe 8 to Team Dresch to Blatz to God Is My Co-Pilot. The documentary features interviews with past & present band members, Jello Biafra, Matt Wobensmith (Outpunk fanzine & record label), Larry Livermore (Lookout Records), Jesse Luscious (Blatz, AT Mail Male). The bonus dvd features great-sounding live performances from the Green Day tour & many other 1990s shows.
