The inspirational true story of Moondog, the legendary musician and New York icon whose life was an unexpected, outrageous adventure.
Charlie Parker and Benny Goodman hung out with him. Philip Glass lived with him, Janis Joplin covered his music, Allen Ginsberg stuck it on his fridge, Diane Arbus took his picture and Andy Warhol's mother designed one of his album covers. Merv Griffin interviewed him, Phillip Starck named a building after him, Ravi Shankar appeared in a movie with him and top fashion designers have created entire collections around his look. In the '60's he was a counterculture idol; today he's celebrated by the likes of Antony and the Johnson, The Kronos Quartet and The Mighty Boosh and his ongoing influence can be seen in the work of everyone from Bjork to Philippe Starck.

Changed my life, my musical life, my dance, my world. I love Moondog
So sad to see this project so delayed. We've all been waiting for this movie for too long, hope it comes out some day.
Come on Holly ! do the film !!!!
I've been waiting on this movie for years. I feel like I need to know more about moondog.
I remember hearing his music when I was 10-12. Even then it got inside me and just stayed there, haunting and joyous, simple and deeply complex. Music and lyrics like that stays in you. Moving to the city at age 12 I use to see him often and say hello. He was an impossible figure standing there amongst the mortals.
I hope I live to see the day this film comes out
Moondog self title album was how i heard of his music in 1969. Like to have Golden Fleece played as my final wish.
I discovered his music years ago by accident......fell in love with his music.
i can't wait! and they should make the MOVIE!
I'm so excited watching this film about this great man and musician. I stumbled in the library across "The German Years" album and was very impressed by such an outstanding bio in the comprehensive booklet. And about the outstanding music too.
ah come one just do this movie guys.
I want to be Moondog... just for one day 😉
God bless you cause this movie.
still waitng, love!!!
Still waiting patiently.
Can't wait!
I need this and i need this with spanish subtitles... PLEASE!
Dang this was 9 yrs ago. I came from the triumph insult comic dog video.
What ever happened to this documentary?! Was it ever finished?
Is this still an on-going project? Why don't you release some clips of what you've got so far?
It's July already. Where's the movie???
Perhaps it is now time for an investigative documentary on the making of The Viking of 6th Avenue - the Kickstarter Campaign that never yielded fruit. Perhaps all the money was paid to the talking heads...
Did you all get the money needed to make the film?
So where’s the movie?
Soooo???? Where's the movie? Did it ever happen?

Still waiting?
They should stop the campaign and hand it over to someone who can do it What disrespect to keep this footage on hold and continue to solicit funds 8 yr later Moondog true original and straightedge as well I guess being blind gave him that edge
Is this happening or what???
will this ever be made?
Any updates available? Love Moondog and excited to see this.

Whatever happened to this project? Did they just get the Kickstarter money and ran with it? Have we been betrayed?

Thanks for your work.
Maybe they're being stalled by his estate in Germany??? Just an educated guess.
