I am certain this will make a few people out here very happy.

It was mentioned here a year and a half ago - The Long Winters' homecoming show at the Showbox at the Market from April of 2007 was being recorded for a DVD. It now has an official release date of Tuesday, December 9.

The show was recorded by Dorsia Films and in the interest of full disclosure, the filmmaker, Adam Pranica, has been a very dear friend for several years. I know he is also hard at work on a documentary of The Long Winters called Through With Love.

I'm hoping we can have a review of the live DVD very soon. I'll post more details as I learn them but you can check the Dorsia Films website and blog for more information. You can also pre-order the DVD through Amazon here.

In the meantime, here's the trailer:

...and here's my favorite photo from that show (taken by the lovely Sarah Joann Murphy):
