It was fun: the 'band' look spot on, and even more impressively can really play all the tunes - they kept casually knocking them out between takes! All the key cast were on set today, including Samantha Morton with fake pregnancy-belly, and all were very friendly: the scene was a gig at Eric's; the tune they were playing was SLC. It was far too fucking hot, and there were far too many would-be luvvies and art student tosspots for my liking, but I enjoyed the day and would do further shoots if asked. Yeah, the crowd was a bit sparse after various dropouts, but camera angles will sort that out for the final version.
Interesting day, for various reasons. My expectations for the film have been raised accordingly.....
Nice one Frads! What time did you have to be there for mate? I'm going to wrangle a day off on spec.next week to see if I can get me oar in.
People were supposed to be there for 7.30am - ouch! Watch out for the dodgy 70s gear they'll force you to wear: I was 'costumed' in a rib-crushing denim jacket that they made me button up. Indoors. In this fucking heat?????
