The Committments
« on: July 3, 2003, 10:36 PM »
The movie.  Does anyone else love this movie?  I really enjoy it every time I watch it and think it's really well done.  The music is fantastic and as I understand it, those are the true performers of those songs.  

It's entertaining from start to finish.  And I might have a little attraction to a certain singer Natalie (Maria Doyle).

I love it.  I loved it before I went to Dublin for a summer and tried to track down all the places in the movie, which was hard, because they were mostly neighborhoods.  I did ride the DART though.   ;D

Guess I'll update the DVD for this. Looks like it will be available August 16/2003. So it's just around the corner.  8)

I'll be snagging that too.  Fortunately the wife likes that one as well.  

Has anyone seen the touring version of the band?  They come through here about twice a year, just never at a good and convenient time for me to make the show.  I have no clue who's even performing with them from the "original" band.  Be a good show though, always playing licensed establishments ;D
