"GET THE CLACKERVALVE AND THE OLD CLOBBERD BISCUITS OUT AND SMACK THE GRAND HAM CLAPPER'S MOTHER"
In 1999 Critters Buggin was asked to play the WARSAW SUMMER JAZZ DAYS, it was recorded by Polish national television, a high quality multi-camera shoot. The audio was recorded and mastered, by our own engineer, Mell Dettmer, live to 2 track, using a mics/board matrix recording. The performance took place in THE PALACE OF CULTURE AND SCIENCE, a giant Stalin built building, with all the Soviet touches. The band had been touring a lot during this time, a great example of a Critters Buggin live show.
The DVD also includes 2 bizarre 'intro films' made by WORD PUBLIC for the band's Tokyo shows in 2004. The Bruce Bickford clay animation video of 'BROZO THE CLONE' is on the DVD, and a Balinese shadow puppet music video of 'PANANG' is there as well. ROBOBONES visits the studio, and there are multiple slideshows featuring the photographs of long time Critters photographers Bruce Tom and Nicholas Polimenakos, and Michael DiDonna. The DVD is packaged in a full color 4 panel digipak designed by Maurice Caldwell Jr. and Regan Hagar for extra conceptual power.
