BELOW! -- More pix and a wild story that got cut from my interview with Get Crazy director Allan Arkush, at Please Kill Me online! (link above)

Holy crap did I have a GREAT time talking with Allan Arkush about his insane, 1983 cult classic rock’n’roll romp, Get Crazy! 

Arkush’s first directorial masterpiece was Rock and Roll High School with the Ramones (1979). Get Crazy was his third film, another fucked-up foray into the fever dreams of R’n’R fandom! 

A lobby Card for Get Crazy, featuring “Electric Larry!”

The tales he tells of the making of the film are hilarious and loaded with peripheral rock world kooks. But Arkush started out in the late ‘60s hippie scene as a lighting man at the Fillmore East, and has worked hard in film and TV up to this day, so the stories spread out from all that!

Here is one below that is particularly nuts, but got cut from the Please Kill Me piece for my usual length reasons. Enjoy!

In 1974, while living in his mother’s New Jersey home, broke and sitting on a film school degree, Arkush drove a cab for a year, and this was just one of many stories that haunt his fever dreams:

40 Years In A Rock ‘n Roll High, my interview with film director Allan Arkush.

Being on the set of Rock And Roll High School in 1978 was a lot of hard work, but Director Allan Arkush made it fun too! By the end of the filming The Ramones felt very comfortable with him. They would even immortalize him in song on “It’s Not My Place in the 9 to 5 World” on Pleasant Dreams. “Roger Corman’s on a talk show/ With Allan Arkush and Stephen King ya know”. Johnny is doing Bunny Ears to Arkush, Zippy the Pinhead is picking his nose, and Joey is clowning around! Good times!

I was happy being the Ramones tour manager for over 2,200 shows, but what I really wanna do is act and direct! Just joking of course, but here’s a fun shot of me and Allan Arkush during the filming of Rock and Roll High School. Allan is showing me the basics of camera work and how to frame a shot, and I’m getting a crash course in filmmaking. We had so much fun on that set, and The Ramones really enjoyed it, making one of the best cult classic films ever.
