I have watched from afar , and admired your work with DO IT AGAIN . I am also impressed that you are such a keen KINKS fan at your tender age!! It just goes to show you younguns can have some taste! Moving on to your blog,,,,,,,,,I have had a wasp up my ass about "superfans" since discovering KINKDOM on the net. I am an ordinary English bloke who has worked in a factory all my life, brought my son and daughter and still remain married and in love with my wife of 34 years. I say those things because I beleive that unless I was a millionare or ( and this is where I fell foul of the PC brigade) a juicy looking tart with mini skirt and high boots there wasn't a chance in HELL I would get near to either brother just to shake their hand and tell them how much their music has meant to me since August of 1964 when I heard the greatest riff in the history of mankind come out of my dad's transistor radio on the beach at Charmouth in Dorset ( look it up) . I have been blown off by the bloody fans ! let alone the guys themselves. I live 30-45 mins from Dave's Somerset home he just as well live on the moon. One of the femaile "superfans" was incandescant with righteous indignation that the only reason her best friend sported a facebook profile pic featuring Ray and her was cos she was " tidy" ( I had seen a picture of the indignant one , she didn't say she was in the same boat ) ( cruel ,,but true) . Ray is an egnigma , is he not? Dave says he's so far up his own ass he cannot hear him! I tend to think he maybe right although I blame Dave's jealousy for the band not reforming. We are going to have a Black Sabbath reunion next year ( my second love) why oh why can't these two understand that there are sooo many people who's lives would be enhanced if they could see the bros on stage just one more time. I feel for you mate, thanksgiving means bugger all to me , but I know you guys hold it in great store , so to misss it wth your family would have been hard. I have even fallen foul of Franl Lima's paper plate roll of honour on youtube! when I bitched about it I got an ironic mention but it seems not ALL KINKS fans are equal! Keep up ther good work mate, I would LOVE to see your movie,,,,I hope one day I will best regards Adrian Long Somerset England Hi, With the advent of the internet this sort of communication would be unheard of, that is why I think it is such a wonderful medium ( I know it abused a lot but ,well what can I say??)

I've been a KINKS fan since I first heard them in the sixties. Saw them on SHINDIG and ED SULLIVAN and many other occasions. A friend of mine in the late 70's toured with them as a photographer. I most recently saw the KINKS in Beverly at the North Shore Music Theater. I know that Ray and Dave were together for that show and I think the rest of the original band was there too. It was a great show in a small venue and I feel very fortunate to have seen them, even more so now that I have seen "Do It Again"...

If he doesn't like the movie (which he probably hasn't even seen), doesn't he have something better to do? Like you, I'm a Kinks fan. A big one. I take personally their successes and failures. I've watched the Kinks' world from my window, unlike you, who not only crossed their dirty old river but shot their rapids. I'm not sure most people understand what sort of strange pull that the Kinks have that cause this reckless devotion (Doug Hinman? Andrew Sandoval? Dave Emlen? Anyone who has bought another reissue of Preservation Act I just to get that 30 extra seconds of "Money and Corruption."). If you had turned out a bad movie, I would have felt bad for the Kinks. But, in fact, the opposite happened. In your own, um, unique way, you have done them proud. And I am convinced that if Ray ever took the time to watch the movie, he would feel it was a fittingly unorthodox tribute to the band from a great fan. A Kinks fan. Where are all of the Eagles' fans putting their money where their passion is? I'll be watching the Kickstarter deadline closely...
