Location: Germany | John, thanks for the DVDs. Watched them last night and enjoyed it. They generated the desire to go to this year's tour. Due to conflicting dates (music school concert) I will not be able to attend to the tour. Maybe there will be another DVD to partly compensate that .....

Location: Upper Left USA | I can help with the MT3K version!!!
(Mystery Theatre 3000)...
I remember about 20 years ago coming home, working the 4-Midnight shift, and turning on the TV to find what looked like an old Cisco Kid Western.
It took me a while to realize that it was Second City playing a Cisco Kid film with a totally redubbed soundtrack.
This was before we felt the need to be politically correct... |

Maybe. I'll let you handle that, Brad. My high school German and French is a little weak.
I'm very gratified that everyone is enjoying the DVD's (at least, I haven't heard from anyone who isn't. But then, Al hasn't seen it yet...).
I did have a lot of fun creating them, and they would not have been possible at all without the contributions by Brad and Phil (and appropriately, DVD, who loaned me his DV camera. I think it might still be for sale if anyone's interested...)
BUT...
They did consume a lot of time, and I'm not planning on producing a DVD this year.
If someone else (Brad?) would like to take a swing at it, I would be happy to provide advice and emotional support.
However, I am thinking about digitally recording the Jam from the sound board again, if anyone is interested in taking on a CD project from that material. |

My crack about adding subtitles was not very nice. Sorry pal. But I knew it would get your attention.
I plan on taking my video camera and I'll share what I take but it would just be raw, unproduced footage. I don't have the editing thing down yet at all.
I can't imagine how long it took to cut that video together. (Accually I can... about 10 months) All those fades, the split screen work and blending together video from two camera sources took alot of time and talent. And members should know that the ski lodge jam audio is taken right off sound board. That was another thing John had to match up.
Over the course of two tours you have captured the flavor of about everything they have to offer. The factory, the seminars, the lobby jam. If these discs do not convince members they need to "Be There", nothing will. |

Location: big island | john/DVD,
what model DV camera are you mentioning might still be for sale?
even though i cannot be at this year's tour, if anyone would like to do the filming, you can then send the raw material to me and i would be happy to edit and burn it (to DVD!).
if so, PM me to discuss it further. |

No worries, Brad. If I knew French and German, I might have tried it! I know my software is capable.

Lanaki, shoot DVD a pm about his camera. I know he was looking to sell it, but I don't know if he still has it. It's a nice camera, he just wasn't finding the use for it. |

Location: NJ | Mine arrived yesterday. ThanxWask!!
We watched it last night, and got a couple of chuckles out of it . . .
We got the biggest laugh towards the end when Brad Kubrick shot those DEATHly quiet early-morning scenes of the hotel lobby . . .
I said to Jeanette:
". . What the f@ck is THIS?? . . "The Shining"?!?!?! . . I'm waiting for those twin girls t'pop up outta nowhere!!! . . ."
We both had a great laugh.
WellDone,Gentlemen!!! |
