Plot

RAZING THE BAR documents the development and eventual demolition of a well-loved fringe punk rock Seattle venue through interviews of employees, friends, and a multitude of local musicians. By going out on a limb and being uncompromising in his golden rule values, club owner Brian Foss cultivates an environment that transforms an occasionally aggressive and inhospitable music scene into a supportive and collaborative community where many marginalized and outcast performers can finally call home. The power of his influence is demonstrated in the entertaining juxtaposition of the outrageous and often obscene acts inherent to punk performance against the sincerity of love and respect shared amongst the key participants.
