On Dec. 19 we told you about the upcoming Daniel Johnston show at Turner Ballroom on Thursday, Feb. 7.

The musician has had something of a cult following (starting with Kurt Cobain) for years, but if you're still in the dark about why, you might consider a little background information.

The Oriental Theater is screening Jeff Feauerzeig's award-winning documentary "The Devil And Daniel Johnston" on Monday, Jan. 14 at 7 p.m. The film poignantly chronicles Johnson's neurotic battle with manic-depression and the interesting indie rock music he makes.
