    YAY my 10,000th post :D

    and...

    OH MY GOD!!!!! Thank you sooooooooo much for that link! I just watched part of the Toledo section and there, talking to Ed about Iraq is ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm the one who said that the Saudi's and the Bushes are like this (I held up crossed fingers) and said the US was in the wrong country...then Ed replied...talking RIGHT to ME! I am dying over here!!! I remember the cameras being there and everything but its been so long I figured any footage of my meeting Ed was never going to see the light of day.

    I NEED to get a copy of this documentary somehow!!


    Awesome 10,000th post!
    I'm sure it'll be released somehow, at least that's what I understood from last weeks 10C lounge email....

    if so, is it burnable to DVD format or is this just viewable in an iPod?

    yeah, u can save it to your hard drive with File2HD.com and then convert it to any avi, divx, wmv etc with Total Video Converter. I think you have to pay to unlock after the 15 day trial period but there are other shady places where you can get it cracked *cough cough* But i wouldnt know anything about that *cough*

    Awesome video!!
    I Loved it!!

    How about that "Cortez The Killer" jam w/ Uncle Neil? WOW!! just fucking incredible. What a great sound. Neil and Pearl Jam go together like Peanut Butter and Jelly. I could listen to those guys rock out endlessly for the rest of my life...Looks like Eddie had the best seat in house for that one!!

    "All along the Watchtower" was pretty bad ass too!!

    I also really enjoyed the footage of "Of The Girl" from the Seattle practice space. The covers of "AmeriKan in Me" and "Masters of War" were kick ass aswell.

    Kudos to the directors of this film. I like the home made Super 8 Black and White look. It really gives the film a historical feel and captures that time in American History very well.

    It's especially interesting watching this film in contrast to the 2008 campaign that we've all been following. It really puts into prespective how far we had to come to get to finally get to a point where we are on the brink of bringing some much needed change into the White House.

    The footage of Jeff and Eddie voting is great aswell. Eddie's batmobile made me spit out my beer. I wonder if that is Eddie's voting car...Definately puts the Solo Tour Poster into perspective doesn't it?

    I got a good chuckle of Ed hitting the Liquor Store after voting. It's exactly what I plan on doing on Election Night this year.

    Hopefully we all wake up November 5th with a smile on our faces :)
  • I am guessing the reason we have never seen this before is because the VFC 04 tour didn't work the way they hoped.
    My whole life looked like a picture of a sunny day.

    It does put things in perspective. Many thought everything was in the bag four years ago and nothing changed.

    I sensed a subtle undertone to this film...I could be way off.

    Vote for Change?

    Will this be the slogan every four years with similar results.

    I hope not.

    Four years along and I'm a tad more cynical.

    Urs,


    Thanks girlie!!

    I have only watched the scene I'm in and the soundcheck stuff from Toledo.
    When you get to the Toledo section you won't be able to miss me Urs. lol. They do a CU of me when I'm speaking. (sound is mediocre) then to go cut to filming behind me and Ed looking RIGHT AT ME responding to what I said. :)

    I still can't believe I got to relive part of that experience last night...It was so amazing the first time.

    Wow, great find!

    I made the drive from New York City to Toledo for the show with my brother and four friends. Well worth it, cool to watch some of the footage.....brings back some good memories.
