Guided By Voices: 'Watch Me Jumpstart' (Video)

12:43 p.m. · June 24, 2009 · by Michael Hoven

It sounds strange, but you must hurry to see this documentary from 1998! For one week only Pitchfork is playing Watch Me Jumpstart, which follows Guided by Voices from their homes to the car to the liquor store drive-thru to the show. Filled with old photos and old rockers, the members of Guided by Voices detail their origins and work habits, presumably so you can be stunned by how unsophisticated it all was. I can't wait until I'm a guy in his mid- to late-30s who needs a haircut so I can form a legendary rock band.

Directed by Banks Tarver, Watch Me Jumpstart is available in its entirety for a limited time.
