    I went to see Mia last summer, on her birthday. I travelled from Spain to Louisville only to say HI to her, and tell her how much we miss her. Thank you Mia for everything you gave us. u will be missed forever.

    One of the saddest things is to hear & see a mother or a father talk about one of their children who were murdered or died unexpectedly at a young age. The pain shoots out of their soul like the light from a lighthouse.

    You can tell how free her spirit was, her voice was powerful. Much like Janis Joplin. Imagine all the music she could have made, how much she could have evolved. Very sad that she died just as they were really starting to blossom.

    This video almost brings me to tears. I'm only 17 and I would have given anything to be alive and witness the true talent of Mia and the Gits. It honestly pains me to watch this video, knowing that such a talent was taken away from us in such a repulsive and heinous way.

    the last words of the father bring tears to my eyes..
    Like a friend of mine said to me when I lost a close friend last year:
    @It is always hard to find the right words when one encounters death, and espececially the death of the young."
    But to loose someone to such dire circumstance, I cant even begin to Imagine.
    Peace to her friends and family.

    I love what his dad says in the end "she now belongs to all of you and it's neat, I like it, I'm proud of her". This is so tragic...I'll call my daughter Mia.
    I fist learnt about the Gits from the Hype, documentary on Seattle bands (though I kind of knew about them because of Home Alive). When I saw the part when they do Bob (cousin o') I thought "Who is this woman?" and got really intrigued and listened and sure enough! She just moves you with her voice, UNBELIEVABLE!

    @knockout68 Hey Knockout I wanted to first applaud you on the excellent film you have created here. I just recently saw and think it was absolutely amazing. I was 21 when this tragedy occured and was both a Gits and 7 year bitch fan. Your use of imagry and intersing juxtaposition of current and archival images was excellent. I'm 38 now and have returned to college after a winning a 12 year battle with drug and alcohol dependence and I am studying filmmaking. What advice if any do you have for..

  • @tbone2872
    @tbone2872 14 лет назад

    ...a person who is looking at the daunting task of both starting a new career path at almost 40 yrs. old but also a person who has a huge passion fordocumentary film in particular. Again,knockout68, I wants to congratulate you on making an incredible film. I absolutely loved it. Viva Zapata!

      Not fair at all, Risk Records. I agree, she shouldn't be called a "version" of them (although she definetly falls into the same category), but calling those guys losers is utterly disrespectful to what they have accomplished and what they were capable of

    I never saw this band but I knew a lot of people who were impacted by her loss. I volunteered for the benefit event in San Francisco at Cyclone Warehouse and shortly thereafter started putting on all ages shows in Palo Alto. I've been doing that for 27 years. Maybe there could be a grant at Antioch College for people who want to put out their own music, in her memory.

    I missed The Gits the first time around - here in the UK we only got Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, et al. Discovered them on Grooveshark and I did a search for Mia and at first I thought she was part of the cursed 27 club. When I read she was murdered in such a horrible way it was like a punch in the stomach and I never knew her. Reminded me of Adrienne Shelly, another amazing person taken by a scumbag. Such a terrible, fucking shame.

      *I get your point tho, most of them did died "via their own self destructive tendencies" but I'm not sure about that being "a "rule" to be in the club
      In my opinion, if you're popular then die at 27 no matter how, you're in!
