"Live concert DVD from Bunda Love (id & Mike) with Jamie Saft, filmed at Strange Maine in Portland, Maine. Southern Maine printmaker and visual artist, Brad Sawyer, shot the concert & did the design and silkscreening for this beautiful handmade packaging. Silver ink on 120 lb. black cardstock. Packaging folds out as a beautiful 2-sided, 5"x15" piece of top quality print art. All this accompanying this one of a kind DVD video of sheer communications in weirdness (think doom metal meets schizoid noise) in front of a packed room in Southern Maine - the only place this could have happened."-Funhole Records
