Dean Simmons & The Kamens Bootleg Video

[Dave Flowerday]

I captured the video that our team took of The Kamens IRI talent show performance and you can grab it here. Be warned: it's a 120MB file.

As has already been mentioned, it was an awesome performance! These guys have a lot of talent, and hopefully this isn't the last time they make an appearance at a FIRST event!

Here within the next few days (probably tonight) I'll try to digitize the encore that they did. It's only 2 songs, so it shouldnt be as big of a file.

[Dave Flowerday]

The encore from our our camera is up now too. Link (77MB file this time).

I'm downloading the encore now, but the first video was the pimpest of the pimp.

We've got to be talking a record deal.

My dad has video of another angle, yet to be digitized .. and I'm sure there are others.

Someone should take them all and make a multi-angle music video.

Wow, it even takes a long time to dl even with cable. Oh well, Ill give my opinion on the video of the amazing performance once its done.

If someone wants to take on this project, then just PM me and I can digitize the footage I have of the performance and then send it to you. I was pretty high in the bleaches, but I did get some good footage.

Thank you Dave Flowerday for digitizing and uploading the show.

Watched the videos, definately better in person, but still great. And I found something to rag Andy about! He messed up the lyrics in Enter Sandman by metallica. Its "free from sin", not(as he said), "safe from sin". Okay, that doesnt matter at all, but hey, I had to find something wrong with the show, Im a lavery after all . If I can get enough different camera angles(like 4 or so), Ill do a "music video". I cant promise incredible speed or results, but hey, I can try. Also, does anyone have a view with a shot of the judges cards, that would add more thouch to the video.

Please tell me these videos will be up for a few months...if I try to download from here at home, it'll take me a year! Well, maybe not quite...but if they remain up till I get back to school in September, I'll be very happy.

They should still be there. If for some reason they're not, just contact me.

If anyone knows of a good program to shrink these down to make a more limited-bandwidth-friendly version, let me know. Desktop video isn't something I've spent any time with. Or alternately, if someone has a way to shrink them (hopefully without ruining the sound too much), I can post them for others to download...

::anxiously awaiting tour dates::

That video is awesome!! I wish we were there!! How about performing at a few regionals next year? Or a record contract?

Dean Simmons and The Kamens ROCK!!

Let me know when the CD comes out.

[Dorienne]

They are too awesome!!! They have fun with it, they're not so serious when it comes to performing. I really liked that video, it was awesome! I wish we had that stuff at the off-season competitions around here.

The performance was definitely awesome. The video is pretty good, and shows it well.

But Dave, did you really have to videotape the mosh pit? It shows Paul and me getting beat back pretty handily by Big Mike.

Heh... I wish I could take credit for it. One of our students actually did the taping, I just digitized it.

I thought it was pretty funny though how she zoomed in on Big Mike bouncing people around...
