About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like sprawling, interconnected stories about music culture and politics with lots of performances; Not for you if you want a tight plot, few characters, or minimal musical numbers, unlike 24 Hour Party People or Atlanta.

Pros: sprawling ensemble energy; sharp, funny satire; memorable live music | Cons: hard to follow; long and indulgent; uneven character depth
