More info on Nothing Can Hurt Me: The Big Star Story here.
"We were listening to the UNC radio (station) there and they were playing an R.E.M. song. I like R.E.M. fine, but at the end of it, the DJ says, 'Ya that was R.E.M., the sound of the new South'. I looked at my roommate and we said, Gawd, if that's the sound of the new South, I preferred it when it was on the skids. That's how we got the name."

Along with lots of other luminaries. Cool to see some of the Big Star's Third/Sister Lovers footage in there albeit from the concert in NYC. I'm really hoping some footage from the shows held at the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro, NC from last year will also make the final cut.
