    I've been meaning to start this for a while maybe it could be stickied

    Rock concerts and docs are on various channels and not always the obvious ones so this can be the place to post details. I just saw this one but its repeated in a few hours.

    BBC4 2:00am-3:00am (1 hour ) Tue 22 Nov

    Mark Lawson Talks to Alice Cooper

    The rock star discusses his career in the entertainment industry, including his early work in the late 1960s and the development of the `shock rock' stage show that has made him internationally famous. He also talks about his upbringing in Detroit, his struggle with drug addiction and his hope that his on-stage persona will live on beyond his own lifetime.

    Nothing most fans won't already know but entertaining nonetheless.

    Coming up on Friday

    21:00–22:00 BBC4
    New Power Generation: Black Music Legends of the 1980s
    Prince: A Purple Reign
    2/3. Documentary showing how Prince revolutionised the perception of black music in the 1980s.

    22:00–23:50 (film) BBC4
    Purple Rain
    A young, disillusioned Minneapolis musician struggles against a miserable domestic life.

    Nothing specific but there are often good rock/metal documentaries on Sky Arts. I saw metallica, deep purple, black sabbath, and johnny cash, recently.

    Good thread idea.
