USA/Australia 93 mins

“The closest you will ever get to going on a rock’n’roll tour, without actually being there.” – director Mat de Koning

Culled from more than 700 hours of footage shot over ten years, Meal Tickets finds Mat de Koning capturing the rock’n’roll circus from behind the bars and guitars, juxtaposing the varying fortunes of a band and man grappling with the music industry’s long road to the top.

Perth punk band The Screwtop Detonators, deflated after an unsuccessful US tour that was supposed to make them famous, relocate to Melbourne to try again; meanwhile, their once-was roadie Will Stoker becomes an accomplished solo artist. Following both acts over a decade, Meal Tickets takes a leaf out of the Dig! playbook, painting a cautionary, insider’s, tale about the realities of the new musical landscape.
