Here’s the bottom line: If you haven’t seen The Devil and Daniel Johnston, go rent it now. This movie was a masterpiece. I had not even heard of the manic depressive genius named Dan Johnston before watching this movie. This man is a musical genius and underground culture legend. Naive and mesmorizing, simple and touching, brilliant and deeply moving, Johnston’s music takes “original” to a whole new level. So please take a couple hours out of your time and see this movie.
Daniel is playing a show in Savannah, Georgia on August 12 promoted by Tiny Team Concerts. It’s the farthest south he will be traveling on the current tour. Online advance tickets are on sale now!
