By Hilly Town, on August 4th, 2010% Who Film: Ashes of American Flags / Brenda When Wednesday, August 4, 2010 7:00pm – $7 – All Ages Where SPACE Gallery (map) 538 Congress St Portland, ME, USA 04101 Other InfoAshes of American Flags is an award-winning film presenting Wilco live in concert during their 2008 tour. Culled from concerts in five quintessentially American venues – Cain’s Ballroom in Tulsa, Tipitina’s in New Orleans, The Mobile Civic Center in Mobile, The Ryman Auditorium in Nashville and the 9:30 Club in Washington D.C. – the film captures the energy, poignancy and musicality of a Wilco concert and tour. Directed and produced by Brendan Canty and Christoph Green (Sunken Treasure, Burn to Shine), the film intersperses interviews with band members and day-in-the-life footage as the band travels across the U.S.
This is a theatrical screening of the film in HD.
Come early when the doors open at 7pm to get a seat and hear locals Brenda open up with a stripped down set of live music.
