del.icio.usIf you’re a musician - or music lover -
who wishes there was more live footage of bands performing on
television than the musical guest featured on "Saturday
Night Live," look no farther than Lee Chabowski’s "The
What Goes On! Show." The Cobble Hill musician-director’s
DVD features surprisingly slick footage of 10 diverse New York
acts - with six from Brooklyn - all uncut, with just enough
camera angles to keep it interesting.
The bands are introduced in skits filmed on location around the
city. (One features a woman hanging out her laundry; another,
a person waiting on a subway platform.)
In addition to writing, directing and producing the "What
Goes On! Show," Chabowski also fronts the rock band, New
Delhi Monkey Man, which is featured on the DVD, too.
Chabowski told GO Brooklyn that he and wife Margaret Pine Chabowski
are at work on volume II of the Ed Sullivan-inspired musical-variety
show.
"This is an ongoing project for us," Chabowski said
of his directorial debut. "We are constantly looking for
new bands." Bands wishing to submit materials can e-mail
contact@whatgoeson.tv.
"The What Goes On! Show" is $19.95 and can be purchased
through the www.whatgoeson.tv
