Panda Bear DVD: Free!

Haven't seen Panda Bear live yet? Well, now you can get a DVD of his live set for FREE!

Mike from Eat Tapes filmed 3 live Panda Bear shows, is compiling them into one live set, and releasing it free on DVD. Amazing.

Shortly after hearing about Panda Bear's tour for his latest album, Person Pitch, I thought it would be sweet if I were able to come along and film a complete (although short) tour. I got in touch with a highly psyched Noah and after some planning we were good to go. I went to Baltimore, Philly, and New York and complied an extensive collection of footage from all three nights. We decided it would be cool if we created a DVD from the videos.

Here is a list of things I know so far about the DVD. (Everything subject to some changes)

• The DVD will contain a full performance of Panda Bear's set. I will take the audio from the best recording and edit the three sets' videos together to make one cohesive performance.
•The DVD will also contain sound checks, audience responses, a Panda Bear interview, and other random footage.
• I did shoot all of the opening bands' performances. How I will provide them I am still deciding but I promise I will give everyone on this tour their due credit.
• I am a firm believer that the greatest things in life aught to be free, music being one of those things. Because of this and my respect, appreciation, and gratitude for Panda Bear, there is no necessary charge for this DVD. It will be free.

Head to the Panda Bear 2007 Tour DVD site to view a sneak peek of footage and hopefully to order the DVD soon!

Also, since there was a $250 filming charge at Bowery Ballroom, Mike is putting together a special Bonus disc pack and selling it for $5-$10.
