Busking Joe: Saving for a Tour Van

Synopsis

The documentary follows Joey (the titular Busking Joe), as he travels the UK drumming outside of music events in order to save up to buy a tour van and live on the road. Now on the last leg of his quest, he relentlessly travels coast to coast, across the northern borders of the UK, with his end-goal at arms length. All the while, among the ups and downs of the journey, we begin to learn more about the man behind the drum kit.
