Synopsis
Not On the Heep: The Heavy Metal Saga of Lee Kerslake
At Heavy Metal’s dawn, the sun rose to the beat of Lee Kerslake’s powerhouse drumming. Through a career of 50 years and 60 million albums sold, he became a legend. Now he must face the end of his days. He reconnects with lifelong pals from Kiss, Ozzy Osbourne, Def Leppard, Deep Purple and Iron Maiden, and performs one last time with the band he created, Uriah Heep.
The Gits
The inception and ascent of Seattle-based post-punk band the Gits, whose rise to prominence was cut short by the shocking rape and murder of their fiery lead singer, Mia Zapata, in 1993. Featuring performance footage and reflective interviews with the remaining members of the Gits, O'Kane's labor of love celebrates Zapata's memory and the group's enduring legacy.
