Some of you know and some dont, but my day job is owner of a small video production company specializing in music events and videos.

Back in October 2005 we went to Indiana to work on 2 music videos for a band called the Luckies.

Some background:

The luckies were formed around Bobbie K Owens a internationaly known paiter and collage artist who on his 51st birthday woke up and said " I can write songs" well over 800 songs later he is still writing.

A record producer named Dave Nay who has worked with everyone from foghat to marshall tucker heard Bob and some of his friends that had formed a band at a bar and talked him into to coming out to his studio and over the next 2 years replaced all the players with seasoned pros who collectively have over 150 years of road experience.

Now back to October 2005

We showed up and shot a lot of green screen and studio footage and they were going to play a gig at a club in Indianapolis called Birdy's for a crowd of mostly record company execs (they had rented the club and it was an invatation only show) it was also the second time they had ever played live as a band

We decided to setup and get some live footage of the 2 tunes we were making videos of just to spice up the mix a little but we recorded the entire show anyway.

We got back here and I got to work on the 2 videos and got them done. I then looked one day at the live show footage and said "well it aint half bad I will make em a dvd just for the band as a keepsake"

Well theyre record company saw it and went nuts, they wanted it produced into a DVD to package with thier fist cd in a dual package, anyway those at the club meeting met the guy with me he is the record producer that started this entire thing, he flew out with more material so we worked 8 days to build the DVD around the live show and I am mastering it now.

Which brings me to the topic of the post.

I would like to know if a couple people out here would like to beta test the DVD before I send it to discmakers in LA for printing.

If you like kinda mix between Lou Reed and the Dead this band is right up your alley (real jam band stuff) if your a head banger or disco queen then you wont like it anyway

I need someone who will watch it and click all the buttons and test all the content.

Comphensation: you get to keep the DVD and when it comes out you can know you helped.

If you want to help PM me and we will figure a way to get the disc to you.

If it was my style, I would do it. If you ever do any heavy stuff, I will be glad to beta test for you.

Damage Plan was about the hardest I could stand to shoot and edit

Man, I dont know if you met that to sound F'ed up but as a H U G E Pantera and Dimebag fan it sounded that way, if not then its cool......

just ment to say I had the gig to record the show. Having cut my heavy metal teeth on deep purple and a few others up until about 85 then heavy metal went the way of the hair bands and then there was pantera.

while i will admit I was not a huge fan when i met with the band they seemed, well they seemed as if they were still in the 80's other than that they were ok.

while not condoning or making fun in anyway what happened at the al rosa that night I was just making reference to BugZylla and his reference to "heavy stuff" and the fact that that was the only footage I ever shot of a metal band.
