Watched it last night. As a person who was not connected to the city, I found the doc pretty compelling. It did seem a little too hyper focused on a very few citizens, and could probably have been a 3 episode miniseries, but I was pretty riveted by the stories told.

My band played down at Nzoner's music festival like a week or so later in St. Joe. We converted all our revenues from CD sales into raising money for the disaster. Seemed the least we could do. That was crazy to say the least.

How is Joplin doing now? Would have been nice for them to do a little follow up 14 years later.
