An hourlong documentary about Silver Jews hombre David Berman's relationship to Judaism was screened at film festivals this spring and is coming to DVD; for some reason Blogger won't let me link when I'm using Safari, so info at http://www.silverjewmovie.com. Understandably, I'm a little wary about big religious epiphanies (see, "Dylan, Bob in Popemode") in my musical idols. But hey, if it keeps him off the smack, you know? Also news of a new SJ album being recorded AS I TYPE. Can't remember where I read all this crap or I'd link.
Okay, this isn't where I read it, but Pitchfork (jayzus) posted a bunch of SJ-related info a few weeks back:

Also, DCB was apparently looking for an INTERN???? Good god. The mind reels. Sour grapes: it would probably suck, and I couldn't do it anyway, since one of the requirements is "musician/writer types need not apply." But he was looking for an arts admin person, which I kinda sorta wanna be one day, so...Maybe I'll look into this. Hell, just this afternoon I was thinking of going to the ANTM 10 casting call at NC State. Perverse social experiment, anyone?
