XLrator Media will release the documentary WHO THE F**K IS THAT GUY? in select theaters on July 21 and on VOD and iTunes on July 25.
WHO THE F**K IS THAT GUY? directed by Drew Stone, takes viewers inside the incredible life of Michael Alago, a gay Puerto Rican kid.
Hailing from Brooklyn, Alago went on to shape and reinvent the world’s musical landscape — first as a 19-year-old talent booker at the legendary Ritz nightclub in New York City and then as a 24-year-old A&R exec who signed Metallica, White Zombie and worked with other notable artists including Nina Simone, John Lydon and Cyndi Lauper.
The film tells the tender, loving and sometimes self-destructive story of a man who “just loved music.” He had the passion to bring it to the world on his terms and lived to talk about it. Barely.
WHO THE F**K IS THAT GUY? features interviews and archival material with Metallica, White Zombie, singer-songwriter Nina Simone, vocalist John Lydon (Sex Pistols, Public Image Ltd), singer-songwriter Cyndi Lauper, Metal Church, and Misfits.
