It's finally here! An audio / video document of the amazing 77 Boa
Drum performance that took place in Brooklyn on July 7th, 2007.
Originally filmed for a full length theatrical and dvd
release, those plans were scrapped for some reason, so this right
here is the only documentof that fantastic and now legendary
performance. Available only as a very pricey import, 77 Boa Drum
contains 2cds, a full recording of the performance split into two
halves, a dvd, featuring 20 minutes of video from the event, all
housed in a massive and gorgeously designed green and gold hardcover
book, packed with tons of photos, including a couple of our very own
Andee, who was one of the 77, diagrams of the drum layout, various
text and other imagery. It's really pretty fantastic, totally deluxe
and elaborate. And beyond object as art, listening to the recordings,
the sound is massive and powerful and beautiful, more than just a
spectacle, it was a sprawling chunk or rhythmic organic sound,
equally composed and improvised, the power of that many drummers,
each contributing his or her own style, combined with the Boredoms
three drummer attack, and Eye's homemade multi necked guitar and
spaced out electronics. If you missed it, you might want to think
about picking one of these up (cheaper than the plane ticket woulda
been, right?). And even if you were there, that almost makes this
even more essential, an amazing, over the top, keepsake of one of the
most amazing performances we've ever seen or been a part of, and the
very first Boa Drum.
Needless to say, this is crazy limited, and we only have a few of
these. When we run out, we'll hopefully be able to get more, but
there's certainly no guarantee. So if you really want one, act fast.
