brian mcguire everything will happen before you . . .
Brian McGuire is as soothing as tea and toast, which is what my mother fed me when I was sick to my stomach. His smile might fix an ailing heart. Janine and I were delighted to have his company the afternoon of 1-29-09 to talk about life, art, and music. Brian is the apotheosis of déjà vu … something about him is so uncannily familiar, likeable, brotherly.
I always feel like a part of a Norman Rockwell print-ad when in his presence.
Notable film critics love him, and have him pegged him as the new young Bill Murray, an interesting accolade that points to his likeability and his quiet humor. If indeed everything will happen before you die, we sure are lucky to meet Brian McGuire!
His mom put him to sleep listening to Kraftwerk and Pink Floyd. It obviously worked. What a mom!!!
I feel that Brian McGuire is an ultra-wonderful-life-like Jimmy Stewart doppelganger who has walked into my awareness, and I feel like an imaginary bunny. Harvey, perhaps. Only Brian was the Bunny at Catholic school, complete with a Bunny suit and a dramatic leap to his death, flying off stage, with a thud in a “Don Cayote” stage play.
He perfected a more natural death as per request.
On a hot quiet January afternoon in Los Feliz, he told us that his DJ skills were refined in the warehouse and club scene.
His folk music (as alter ego Gene Wilder) tells of lost friendship and polite defiance.
He might be Gong-man in a paper bag, trapped in a grunge metal world, with Thunder from Heaven. Or enclosed in a wrestling mask talking on a cell phone despite being on stage, which is so LA, to always be more important than the moment at hand.
Left House Publishing is splitting into three groups.
The Attic has Thunder from Heaven.
The Basement will be another side of music.
In a few weeks he’s importing a brilliant brother hip-hop impresario from Chicago to rock the Left House publishing and continue work on the Dirty Digital project.
Conversation was a scat. He delivered a near monologue story to our laps. I’m overjoyed to have the audio record, as it occurs to me that Brian in person is more fun than any confection of words singing his praise.
Gene Wilder plays Cranes once a month or so and took a regular spot at the Cat Club for years. At thirty-three, Brian speaks with the wisdom and sensibility of an older generation. Having been handed a DJ spot at raves prior to understanding the concept of matching beats, he taught himself, and manifested the warm bodies to fill the clubs, and became a paid hit DJ. He became quite good.
There is really no separation between music and acting. Acting is metaphysical. He lives for acting, but makes music nonstop. His new film “Everything Will Happen Before You Die” stars Andy Clockwise as a street musician, and Joey Capone as a cross-dresser. I can’t wait!
The wise words of a monk in a nightmare crystallized into the next indy breakout film. Watch out!
Technology invaded his last film, a craigslist-drenched tragi-comedy. The logic of distribution methods has made “In Search of a Midnight Kiss” a bigger hit in Europe than in the USA. Though if you get a chance, see it, and you will feel exactly like you are sitting at La Poubelle, with an actress you know, and you might have just suffered through some kind of craigslist purgatory blind-date, or casting call. It’s the place to be.
Brian got to do publicity in London and Poland. Greece loves the film by Alex Holdridge. Brian is the guy you’d want to give your eulogy at your funeral, he is just so nice, sincere, and heart-warming in person. He has such a coterie of talented friends it would take pages to name them all. Dave Warden of the online Weed Report has contracted McGuire’s music company to be the exclusive music for the stoner web phenomenon.
For a year, McGuire did a song every week, released onto the web, such is his dedication to art. He stays creative all the time. No dormancy for Brian McGuire. Dan Finkle is behind “Everything will Happen before You Die.” Don’t miss it.
