The countdown breakdown toward the end is legitimately exciting.
Clearly you all would do a better job of running a Chicago folk club in 1962 than I would.

It's a cute song, and I'll be generous and say you'd only have to tell about a third of the multiplex audience what this Mr Kennedy and outer space have to do with 1961.

Rewatching, I think his final cry of his "Grandma Moses" heckle is the key to LD's character: "I HATE FOLK MUSIC!" He wants out the whole week the film chronicles, but he has to leave bloody and battered (while the new boy king plays).
The making-of on the DVD is mostly about the music, but some interesting production design etc (they built the big green bathroom Goodman ODs in cuz they couldn't find anything satisfactory).
