Its power comes from Timoner sticking with the story over the long haul -- on the road, in hotel rooms, backstage -- getting in-your-face footage and telling a good tale with it.

In a year that has seen several fascinating documentaries on famous rock stars and their problems, Dig! stands out for being about musicians who only think they should be famous. And, man, do they have problems.

I must admit that I came out of DiG! with a certain degree of admiration for Newcombe -- and for this documentary.

It's a classic music soap opera, but never told with a more raw scream for help at its center.
