Julie and I just watched a great documentary about the drummer from the band Rogue Wave called "D tour". I was familiar with the story, but didn't know any of the details. Synopsis:

D tour is an award-winning feature-length documentary that chronicles Pat Spurgeon’s search for a living organ donor and the challenges associated with finding a viable match.

Great Interview: Tarantino on NPR's Fresh Air

by Todd Sweet
