The cheepskates site is great, I didn't realize that the DVD was available 
there. I keep meaning to ask Dino, not just for the Mad Violets, but for all 
his bands.  The recordings are good, but they don't capture their live 
sound. Which, now that I think about it, seems to be a recurring theme with 
bands from The Dive.
