Whitty Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Hey VCers- First five replies here will get themselves a free copy of my band's (The Burning Dirty Band) new DVD Live From the Black Box. It's a 40 minute rock film with a limited budget about a band you've never heard of making beautiful music in a very nice corner of the Virginia countryside. If you like Pavement, Spoon, The Band, The Pixies, and yes, Wilco, then you'll find something to like. It's got nine full-length songs, music videos, interviews, and home movie goodness. DIY rock to the core. If you're going to be in Northern Virginia on August 8th (and who isn't?) then come out to our DVD release party at Sweet Caroline's in Winchester, VA why don't ya?

mountain bed Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 I'd be interested in this, Whitty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GtrPlyr Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 This sounds really cool. It doesn't hurt that I like the bands name checked. Not sure if you want to send one of these up to Canada, but if you do I would gladly check it out. Either way, thanks for the generous offer Whitty. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Whitty Posted July 16, 2008 Author Share Posted July 16, 2008 Five replies- PM's are on the way. We have recently overturned our longstanding anti-Canadian policy, so GtrPlyr qualifies, too. Thanks for the interest! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PopTodd Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 As my DVD player is missing its remote, I was only able to check out the first tune because of the way the menu is set up. That said, I really like the song.And I really like your band. I will also be purchasing a new DVD player within the next month or so, so I will be able to dig in deeper. Thanks again.

Whitty Posted July 21, 2008 Author Share Posted July 21, 2008 Thanks for the good words. Hope ya'll enjoy our low-budget labor of love. Todd- Did you just manage to play one of the music videos, then? The first track of the actual movie is "The Opener". Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The first track of the actual movie is "The Opener". It wasn't "The Opener", but yeah, just one of the videos was all that I could see.Will it play like a CD on a regular CD player? And, when the music is good, the budget doesn't matter.The music is good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Afraid it's DVD only- it'll play in a computer DVD drive I imagine (I haven't tried) Our philosophy is all about the music, too- I like to joke that we're on the Guided by Voices career plan of making enough DIY music in an obscure town until people have to start paying attention.
