The Devil and Daniel Johnston @ the Empty Bottle

As a part of the "Rock and Roll Cinema" series, the Empty Bottle is screening the music documentary The Devil and Daniel Johnston. The doc focuses on the Austin, Texas singer songwriter Daniel Johnston and his interesting career in the music scene. Depression, delusions of grandeur, and mood fluctuations riddle the artist's life and almost caused him to disappear from the scene. However, his wide popularity and inspiring creativity battle against his personal darkness. Screening starts at 7pm and is free to all.
