Watch the ELECTRIFYING CONCLUSION trailer! (QuickTime) Four hours! 63 songs! One f***ing huge bottle of champagne! Plexifilm is proud to release a definitive record of one of the greatest live bands in rock: THE ELECTRIFYING CONCLUSION is a chronicle of the last four hours of Guided By Voices. The film captures Guided By Voices' final concert at Chicago's Metro on New Year's Eve 2004 -- 63 songs, completely uncut. The excitement and nostalgia from both the band and audience are powerfully captured here in performances of GBV classics and special, seldom-played songs. The DVD contains the 240-minute feature film, plus 20 minutes of additional material including rare live footage of a GBV performance from January 1994 at the Antenna in Memphis, TN, and exclusive footage of Robert Pollard recording demos for Half Smiles of the Decomposed songs. The DVD booklet also includes liner notes by WFMU DJ Tom Scharpling and doubles as a foldout poster of the original set list from the show. Viewers will be able to witness the past GBV-mates that joined the band on stage (guitarist Tobin Sprout, bassists Jim Greer and Greg Demos, drummers Don Thrasher and Jim MacPherson), some guests stars (Matt Sweeney of Chavez/Zwan/Superwolf, Jon Wurster of Superchunk/Marah, Bob Pollard's brother Jim), the MC/dancer favorite Beatle Bob, and of course, the onstage bar, tended throughout the show by Pollard's buddy Trader Vic.
