We are talking a lot about video in conjunction with the new CD. We might try to work something out with Paul on this and pay him a royalty, but that is up to Paul, the band and myself to negotiate. We really don\'t have enough money floating around as yet to do some of these things, but we are getting there.
this would be a fantastic idea.
no offense to Ken who goes above and beyond to travel to shows, record them, burn them, and then graciously donates an overabundance of DVDs to the band. it\'s absolutely wonderful and amazing that a person would be able to do this, and it is completely 110% appreciated (im sure) by the band and the fans.
but, at the same time.... the quality of the video and audio is less than superior. and while it\'s great that we\'re "spreading the word", we\'re spreading some bad seeds... and if evolution has taught us anything, it\'s that only the fittest survive...
i guess my best frame of reference is the disco biscuits... back in 2002 or 2003 i tried to download a bunch of shows, they were poor quality, so i only gave \'em 1 spin and never really ever got into the band until i heard some soundboard stuff. i\'d certainly *hate* to see this fate for the breakfast, especially when the band is voluntarily passing out these DVDs...
so perhaps it would be worthwhile to maybe scrounge up some money for a DVD... rumor has it that skanky dancer on stage at the 1000th show was actually *hired* to be there... maybe we could drain that fund first?? iunno, just a little food for thought....
