I think anything is possible in regards to that. I really don't know what happened that day. I'm not sure when or if we will ever know anything about the details. I know that the coroner's report still says undetermined. I'm just sad he's no longer here to make amazing music.

That would be great. I hope someday that music can be shared widely. Unfortunately it's not up to us, as it's all owned by the labels. Maybe they will release it someday.

My history with Elliott's music goes back to the time I lived in Portland in the mid 1990s. I remember him from Heatmiser and from the beginning of his solo work. I always enjoyed his music and definitely felt connected to it at the time I was living there where he was making some of it.

I think there are so many Elliott Smith songs to choose from. It's hard to have a favourite. It sometimes depends on the day. As far as getting it played in Vermont, we'd love that! There's a link at our website where you can request screenings. I wasn't so surprised to find so many people loved Elliott's music, but I was a bit surprised it was so global.

I can recall seeing Elliott play in Heatmiser a few times between 1994 and 1996-ish--and he was just a young kid in a loud band playing shows in Portland. When Elliott started playing solo shows, I remember seeing him at places like EJ's, Satyricon, and La Luna and he would really quiet a room. I think the last time I saw him perform live must've been around 1998 in Portland, when he would come back through town.
