| Ah, so not a film as such (ie to be released in the cinema) but an independent DVD on the band. Do you know which company is releasing it and how it will be distributed (ie, internet sale only, on sale in shops etc)? |

hmm like it was eh? now this could be interesting, or then again...
so is it a commercial venture from these major players or have they been commissioned to do it? I think it'll make a difference in the tone, a commercial venture may be after big sales on the back of 'revelations' (not the musical type) where the other would be more documenting the story.
of course i'd buy it whichever category, just wondering in the zigzag way.

Hi me again. This dvd will be more in the line of a documentary,
with music. It will cover the very start of the group, how the
songs were created, It will "attempt" to clear-up misconceptions
and outright bull s***. It will also touch on the group as it is today, though the main focus will be on the original group. It
will be for sale in record stores as well as the internet. As
soon as I know more, I will let you Know!
Johnny

Johnny...how was it seeing Michael after all these years? Did you have a chance to 'catch up'? Is there a possibility of Michael doing a 'guest spot' or two with the band in the future?

Michael and I had a great time chatting it up, our suites were
in the same wing of the hotel and since the producers were footing
the bill,we kept the room service folks quite busy. Michael is very
keen on doing "guest spots" from time to time in (06) but they will
be GUEST SPOTS the group will remain as is!!!!!!! By the way; on
another subject. (Gethsemene) I have been working on it since Forever
Changes. If you note, on the back of "FC" I assume a prayer stance
(hands clasped) that was meant for Jac Holtzman president of Elektra
records, to signify my extreem displeasure at his betrayl of the
group. If one recalls, Jesus had his hands clasped, as he was being
"sold out" by Judas, in the garden of Gethsemene, hence my choice of
that name. One of these fine day's when my "magnum opus" is complete
It shall be released, until then it is too my benefit to have it
remain a mystery.

Johnny-I communicate with Michael frequently, and so I knew that you both got together. Michael told me how happy you are playing and touring with the band. Michael has always thought the world of you and he's happy that you're happy. You both go back a long way, and Michael has great memories of you. I can't wait for the DVD...and maybe Gethsemane too. Continued success to you...and the band.

this is just fascinating, I'd resigned myself to gethsemane never surfacing, and there go my hopes rising again.
always wondered about the prayer stance too
great times
