Director Joe Angio presents a sneak preview of scenes from his upcoming film Revenge of the Mekons (USA, 20 min.), about the pioneering and genre-bending rock band.

Last Saturday saw the Mekons in Berlin after an absence of 15 years. So this was a fine opportunity for some heartcore fans of the band to see them again.

In addition to the setlist they played even more songs: A requested ‘Millionaire’ and ‘Shanty’.

Pictures of the show appear on Flickr:
