i know him better as film critic and hear the podcast every week. and this is a good opportunity to hear his musical side. to night at the barbican "the fabulous dodge brothers", featuring mike hammond (guitar, banjo), mark kermode (double bass, accordion), aly hirji (guitar, mandolin) and alex hammond (percussion) will be at the 12th british silent film festival playing an unique score on the film "white oak", a classic Missouri Western.

never heard about or seen the feature but they say it's about a gambling saloon owner who’s seeking revenge on the man who wronged his sister.
