We have an update on the DVD. Our sincere apologies for the delay...The original estimate for delivery was October but since we are lucky enough to have partnered with an amazing company for our DVD release we are obligated to wait just a little while longer. The new estimate for delivery is mid-January and it will be a copy of the retail DVD with all the bells and whistles including: Commentary with Wayne and Neil, outtakes with Wayne and Mike Quinn, songs from the movie including the complete video of Blue Ridge Mtn Blues and Country Boy In Paradise, and much, much more...It really is a wonderful DVD and hopefully worth the wait.

Again, than you for your patience and thank you so much for supporting the movie. If you have any questions please feel to reach out any time.
