It had more impact on me because it was in a way an ending to an era I was quite fond of.
Still probably my favorite concert movie.

Posted: Tue May 23, 2006 7:14 amAgain going with a sentimental fave-Urgh! because it was about the various strains of "new wave" and punk-however, turns out Minor Threat's Ian McKaye was largely influenced by "Woodstock" the movie and used it as his jumping off point for his ideas of community formed around music.
Posted: Fri Oct 10, 2008 11:29 amI have seen some of these films in a very important part of my life, discovering music after High School by going to shows and having my first video rental card when many stores still had interesting Music sections. The only one I have not seen yet is Dance Craze, although I have the soundtrack.
The one in this list which connected to me the most was The Punk Rock Movie, Don Lett's classic 8mm look into the early days of the Punk scene in London. Classic raw footage that sometimes can be spotted in recent Documentary films, including Lett's own Punk: Attitude.

Posted: Sun Oct 12, 2008 10:40 amYes, Urgh! defined the era; however, I've seen Danse Craz if seen more times then I can count on my fingers and toes in the movie theatre... So I voted for it! [8D]
