Do not be alarmed when I show up to your home with one in hand Billy. I mean you no harm.

I hope we're still on the subject of lasers, or I might well be alarmed.

Some of those guys in the backing band need Lasiks.

A most pleasant evening. Great to see Shine So Hard on the big screen (first time for Will also, apparently), and La Via Luonge (I've got a copy of the original video and whilst the former is okay, only the soundtrack remains of the latter), I'd forgotten how good Will's soundtrack was. Will and Bill Butt were on good form and answered questions and shared some anecdotes for about half an hour before we were treated to the Porcupine videos. A certain Mr Pattinson was in the audience as was Paul Simpson of the legendary Wild Swans.
First time I've made a 160 mile round trip to go to 'the pictures' but well worth it.

Gigs and and now this. I raise my top hat to you VB. You are truly one dedicated fan there.

Would you like to pat me on the head whist you're at it?

by **the ghost of guitarplayer** » Mon Dec 13, 2010 6:29 pm

Yes. That sounds a good idea... Let me try

Sorry I can't quite reach. Well done though.

Thanks for the update--any word on if and when these gems will be released in a newer format?

Both Will and Bill seemed in agreement that it would be worthwhile releasing them on DVD whilst accepting that it had been discussed for years without happening as yet. Having seen all three films in one go last night, they did seem to fit well as a set even though the Porcupine film was originally released a year or two later than the other two of course.
