Plot summary

From iconic guitar player to construction worker, Chris Holmes has lived a life of highs and lows. After losing publishing rights of his own songs and dealing with addictions, the ex-W.A.S.P. member has had to start from scratch living in his mother in law's basement in Cannes, France. He is now ready to take on Europe with his new band. As we follow him along, he meets many fans and proves that he still is the showman he was as a young and famous rockstar. This musical journey draws parallel stories of the rise, fall, and rebirth of Chris Holmes with archives, live performances, interviews, and behind-the-scenes footage.

A fantastic documentary about a great yet underrated

A fantastic documentary about a great yet underrated guitarist!! He speaks openly and honestly about his life! A definite must see for any Heavy Rock and Metal fan!

A sub-average doc on a man who's more

A sub-average doc on a man who's more infamous for chugging a bottle of vodka in a swimming pool during the Decline of Western Civilization Part II - The Metal Years than he is for playing guitar in W.A.S.P.. At one time, documentaries were more about the stories that deserved them and not as a marketing tool of sympathy for those who signed bad deals, have personal demons, didn't have the staying power or basically screwed it up themselves. These docs are a dime-a-dozen these days since the success of The Story of Anvil. Alcohol and drug problems, 6 DUI's, relocating to a country where you don't even attempt to learn the language, singing & playing because you're forced to and living with your wife & in-laws doesn't document a story of success.

Where's the story?

Chris Holmes life is probably a pretty interesting story, unfortunately you're not going to learn all that much in this documentary. What you get instead is a promotional video for his new band, who pretty much suck, sorry. Otherwise we are shown a guy who had genuine talent, but no business sense. They parade a bunch of other semi successful musicians, roadies,friends and fans from WASPs heyday to tell you what a sweet great guy he is, but it's pretty easy to read between the lines. It's pretty obvious to me Holmes only has himself and his addictions and bad behavior to blame for where he is today and that part of his story I would be interested to hear more about.
