This is the first full-show video we've released (though not the first we've shot—the Circle Takes the Square show we filmed in April 2014 holds that distinction). With the help of several contributors spanning North America, we crowdfunded the money to travel to LA and capture this performance, which will likely be the band's last for some time due to singer/guitarist's Chris Waldrep's recent throat surgery.
Aside from those who supported this effort financially, we also want to acknowledge the contributions of Arturo Gallegos, who donated extra video footage that ended up replacing much of ours from the wide angle (we ran into some ongoing autofocus problems with our camera). We'd also like to thank the Roxy for making an exception to their normally really expensive taping fees to let us capture this show within our budget and for providing a copy of their audio for our use. And finally, thanks to Waldrep himself for helping massage the audio.
This is doubtlessly the biggest project we've completed since 2005, and with all due modesty, we think it came out pretty well, especially considering the fact that we were using a bunch of new gear for the first time.
You can stream the video here, and soon we'll have a HD download of the file available. We're also currently working this into a DVD with some extra features and stuff that will be available from the band.
