As mentioned in a previous update, The Smithereens (a.k.a. world’s greatest band/one of ’em anyway) will release a DVD companion to their 2008 live release on January 15th.
Smithereens frontman Pat Dinizio recently put up a post with 6 full length videos from Live in Concert. You can click through on each video link to watch a higher quality video, which makes a huge difference and will give you greater appreciation for the “film” effect that they used on the footage.
I’m really looking forward to this release – hoping that the between song chatter will be included (and I imagine chances are good that it will be!)
The Smithereens – Behind The Wall of Sleep
The Smithereens – Drown in My Own Tears
The Smithereens – Top of The Pops
The Smithereens – Since You Went Away
The Smithereens – Any Other Way
The Smithereens – A Girl Like You
Just imagine how much more successful they would have been if they had been cute at all.
Seems like Mike Mesaros was always a favorite of the ladies…but yeah, I know what you’re saying!
And dammit, I miss Mike. Coolest bass player ever.
Must be a Mike thing…Mike Mesaros, Michael Anthony….
Always dug watching Jim Babjak play too.
so awesome! hooks a mile wide!
Does anybody know if this DVD from the Court Tavern has been released or if it is coming out at all ? The CD is truly a great live recording and I love how it rocks with a purpose. I just put it on after a poker game recently and my whole gang there playing loved it.
Pat – I imagine it will be out at some point this year. It looks like their current record company Koch Records, is going through some re-structuring.
I’ll see if I can get some new details..
I’ve been on a real Smithereens kick since that live CD came out..
