  • You can now watch the complete Q&A with John Lurie as part of Nitehawk's Fishing with John...with John Lurie special screening...
    On November 15 last month, Nitehawk was honored to host a truly special one-night event with estimable John Lurie. We screened three episodes of his cult-classic television series Fishing With John (featuring Tom Waits, Willem Dafoe, and Dennis Hopper) to a sold-out crowd and then John Lurie joined us for a heartfelt, candid, humorous, touching, and insider chat about everything from the mysterious narrator of Fishing with John to the appalling 2010 New Yorker profile to his interest in painting. In a recent Capital New York article, Lurie said that in this screening and discussion he would "reacquaint myself with the world a bit." And as you can see in these videos of his Q&A with Nitehawk's John Woods, he did so quite brilliantly.

    thanks for posting this and for all concerned.
    i let a coworker, who was a bigtime bass fisherman borrow this series, alluding to it being full of helpful fishing tips. He pitched it on my desk the next day sayin, didn't see one damn bass boat, one damn bass... but i couldn't stop watchin all the mayhem. So later on in the day i would sing that little intro to him... "fishin with john" first few times irritated the hell out of him, just tore him up. After a few days of jackin with him with it, it finally melded into a kind of cult reply, and would pull that on each other for weeks to months after that as an inside joke. leaving those around us in the workplace wondering WTF. -gilpin 11-24-15

    At the same time when John Lurie's biggest success was "8 Mile". The movie was directed by the late Curtis Hanson and starring Eminem, Kim Basinger, Brittany Murphy and Mekhi Phifer. From my point of view, "8 Mile" was biggest success.

    Heard John Lurie on the radio promotion these screenings in Williamsburg. An obvious no-brainer because John Lurie being a "hipster" himself back in the late 70s. Saw him in top form with The Lounge Lizards one New Year's Eve. Beautiful and bizarre it was.
    Sadly, due to medical issues, John had to give up music and has concentrated on his questionable painting career.
