Anyone going to see the movie "Get on up?"

[BigGameDamian]

The story about James Brown. I hear it's getting some good reviews but I don't know if I wanna see it.

Biopics are pretty shit.

If the reviews are good I'll go and see it. I really enjoyed Ray.

And while it's not a real bio pic and I really liked Dreamgirls.

I saw James Brown over 40 times live in concert. I'm pretty sure any two-hour biopic would fall short of any one of his amazing three-hour shows.

Wow, did you tour with him or follow around like dead heads follow the Grateful Dead?

I used to follow him when he played. My very favorite live act ever.

I would have seen him more, but he went on that South Carolina Penal tour for a few years and the price of admission was too steep.

On another note, if people who follow the Grateful Dead are known as "Dead Heads", would people who follow James Brown be known as "Brown Nosers"?
