Asylum Street Spankers: Re-Assembly

Re-Assembly documents the monumental Tenth Anniversary Reunion of the Legendary Asylum Street Spankers. On August 14, 2004, twenty-one past and present Spankers performed twenty-nine of their best-loved songs before two sold out audiences at the Texas Union Theatre in their hometown of Austin. These concerts were filmed, then edited together to create the definitive three-hour portrait of this milestone concert by God’s favorite band.

Directed by JP Riedie, Asylum Street Spankers: Re-Assembly leans on a strong ensemble — Christina Marrs, Wammo, Stanley Smith — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2005.
