SENE Film, Music & Arts Festival 2009

'Had these Boston bad boys stuck it out beyond their 1966 debut, we might today be calling them--and not the Stones--the World's Greatest Rock 'n' Roll Band. As it is, The Remains most certainly are America's greatest lost band.' Mark Kemp, June 2007 Paste Magazine. The Remains appeared on Ed Sullivan, opened for the Beatles, and then broke up on the brink of fame.AMERICA'S LOST BAND is a documentary of The Remains' return to Los Angeles for the first time in 40 years, since opening for the Beatles, a film that follows a group of 60-year-old musicians back together pursuing their passion. It's the story of what happens when a band reaches the cusp of rock greatness, but doesn't make it over the final hurdle. The Remains band members Barry Tashian, Vern Miller, Bill Briggs and Chip Damiani will answer audience questions before their special live unplugged performance.
