It was released as a DVD back in 2004 Greendale is also in the process of being turned into a graphic novel, that will be out this spring.

  1. dermahrk says My friend, a HUGE Neil Young fan, saw him do this onstage and said it was embarassingly bad. I predict a quick closing. Then he can go out drinking with Paul Simon.

  3. dermahrk says Ever hear of "Cape Man"? Paul Simon wrote the musical, based on the story of a Puerto Rican who was sent to prison. It closed after maybe half a dozen shows - a HUGE failure which probably cured Paul of Broadway forever.
