Description

(USA, 2008, 107 mins)

Directed By: King Hollis (IMDB)

P.T. Barnum may have coined the phrase “the greatest show on earth,” but he never had the pleasure of seeing Texas pop band Bowling for Soup in action. The band’s hits “1985,” “Girl All the Bad Guys Want,” “The Bitch Song” and others have sent Bowling for Soup all over the world to perform their trademark comedy-laced rock shows. It is impossible to leave a BFS show without a smile on your face, which is most likely the reason they are asked to headline the popular “Get Happy Tour” year after year.

The 2007 docu-concert film Bowling for Soup – Live and Very Attractive follows the band through their third European tour with a finale at the Manchester Apollo in the U.K. The film takes you inside the band’s incredible personalities, both onstage and and off.
