I’m Too Old For This Sh*t
Jericho spoke with WrestleZone Managing Editor Bill Pritchard about producing I’m Too Old For This Sh*t: A Heavy Metal Fairy Tale. The documentary, available now on iTunes, Amazon and various streaming platforms, tells the story of “the unpredictable highs and lows of ‘80s underground, fan-favorite heavy metal band Siren as they reunite more than 30 years after their breakup for a special performance in Germany at the Keep It True Festival.”
Siren is a band that almost no one has ever heard of. Jericho said that is the point of the film in the first place.
“This demo they made as kids snuck over to Germany and suddenly there’s a huge fanbase for Siren that they never knew existed. And they get this invitation to play this really big heavy metal festival and they’re like, we haven’t even played our instruments in 30 years. That doesn’t happen!” Jericho proclaimed. “Most bands, when they break up as kids, they’re done and that’s it.
“But these guys actually had this fanbase over there and when I heard about it, I thought, there’s no way. This is either gonna be the biggest shitshow ever, or the greatest heartwarming ‘dreams can come true’ story that has ever existed, and what we got on camera was even so much more. It’s really inspirational. It’s a story about how your dreams can come true no matter how old you are and no matter what the circumstances may be.”
