« The Citizens Band prepares new LP for election year activism; The Make Up playing DC before ATP NY | Dinosaur Jr. celebrating 25 years of 'You're Living All Over Me' with a special NYC show (and other dates) »
Posted in movies | music | tour dates on September 10, 2012
From a year-old story on Deadline:
The Brooklyn Brothers Beat the Best premiered in Toronto last night, and while there's no distribution deal to report yet, writer/director and star Ryan O'Nan and Michael Weston have scored a contract that turns their fictional band into a real thing. The duo plays The Brooklyn Brothers in the film, and now O'Nan and Weston have signed a record contract to record under that band name for Rhino Entertainment. It's an extension of a deal Rhino made to release the soundtrack of a film that also stars Arielle Kebbel, Melissa Leo, Andrew McCarthy, Christopher McDonald, Jason Ritter, and Wilmer Valderrama.That now-real band from the film, which now does have a distribution deal, plays a FREE film release party at Cake Shop in Manhattan on Tuesday (9/11). MEANWHILE, you can see the film for free at Knitting Factory in Brooklyn TONIGHT (9/10).
The actual film trailer is below...

With a last name like ONAN, he must spank it a lot.

My name is Michael Weston. I used to be a spy. Until...
[phone rings - voice on phone: "We got a burn notice on you. You're blacklisted."]
When you're burned, you've got nothing: no cash, no credit, no job history. You're stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you in.
You do whatever work comes your way.
You rely on anyone who's still talking to you. A trigger-happy ex-girlfriend...An old friend who used to inform on you to the FBI...Family too...if you're desperate.
Bottom line? Until you figure out who burned you... you're not going anywhere.
