If you expect extravagant footage look some place else. The Road To God Knows Where is shot on the Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' 1989 American tour (promoting the Tender Prey album) and carefully documents how the band is off stage, away from the spotlights. The camera work is simple and effective and there is little live footage (after all this is a documentary of a tour, so it's natural that they included a few shots here and there). Besides the charming Bad Seeds (unfortunately you don't get to see a lot of Thomas Wyndler and Roland Wolf), we also see a little of Lydia Lunch and Anita Lane. There are several memorable scenes like when Nick dances to Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach" at sound check. If you have the DVD release you might want to see it with subtitles at first time since the sound is quite low. I've got no other complains. I enjoyed every minute of it. It's simple, it's beautiful, it's Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds at one of their finest moments in their career.

Nick Cave used to have two problems, heroin addiction and a BAD voice. He's kicked the former, now he's working on the latter.' That's funny. Yeah, that's pretty funny.
