<title>Firefest 2012 DVD's?</title>
<description> I'm very much looking forward to Firefest next week. I'm wondering if they will be filming any DVD's this year. Hopefully Kieran or Bruce can answer this question.</description><link>http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,914965,914965#msg-914965</link><lastBuildDate>Fri, 24 May 2013 06:02:37 +1000</lastBuildDate>

These ideas are suggested in partnership with bands: share the costs/share the profits.<br />But as pointed out above, most of the bands didn't even bother to reply ...]]></description>

There's only been a few bands that have had technical issues... Kane Robert's last year for example. He wanted to put on a great show by all accounts, but for whatever reason it kind of fell apart.<br />Harem Scarem still released their DVD and it looked and sounded like they couldn't even be bothered to be there!<br />The rest have been excellent... White Sister, Mitch Malloy, FM and Jimi Jamison all being of great note!<br />Niv]]></description>

I think the high quality of the previous FF DVD's should encourage more bands to bite the bullet and invest - the beauty of live music is it's imperfections and if a particualy bad perfromance is captured either scrap it or use a disclaimer - *due to our singer having a throat infection or guitarist been shitfaced this performance isn't as good as we'd hoped but we still hope you enjoy*<br /><br />Woody]]></description>

Robin Beck Live CD at least, is a must!<br />Niv]]></description>

The suggested budget for a full DVD (filming, post production, authoring) was extremely low, but 80% of the bands didn't even bother to reply. To sum things up: Unless Firefest &amp; Transistor are prepared to take the full financial risk (production, post-production &amp; manufacturing costs), there won't be any new Firefest DVDs in the future ... a huge shame indeed.]]></description>
