Happy new year, Arizona punks! Well, it's been a long time since our first announcement of the Thrash of the Titans 2 event at the beginning of 2010, but finally, after the long months of organizing, practicing, performing, interviewing, recording, post-production, and the countless other steps it took to reach this point, we are proud to (finally) present the lot of AZPunk's Thrash of the Titans 2 documentation.
The multitude of talented and dedicated minds involved with this project from start to finish was staggering. The turnout at the show on September 25th was awesome, and finally, we've got the sights and sounds to show off.
The video above is the lovechild of a trio of AV students at the Art Institute of Phoenix. Anthony Morrison, Daniel Mater and Elias Roat came down to the show to shoot some footage for one of their school projects, and ended up producing a pretty sweet mini-documentary. A couple months ago, they asked Chris and I to come in for a post-show interview. I think Chris had some family in town, so he wasn't able to make it. Not living too far from the school, I cruised over to sit down with interviewer, Corey Lamb, and talk about the entire Titans process a little. After a couple months of post-production, and a lot of anticipation, we finally have it to show to you. Along with the video, our media compadres, Andrew and Kris, recorded some memorable podcast interviews and took some great shots. There's a whole bunch more raw footage I have to sift through, and thanks to Brian over at Hollywood Alley, we've got the audio recordings of the whole night that just needs some mastering. So maybe at some point later we'll have some more to show off. But for now, enjoy the fruits of everyone's collective labor.
This year's Titans 2 show was a lot of fun for us, and another great success story for the AZPunk.com history books. Tremendous thanks to everyone involved, everyone who helped and came out to the show, and everyone who supports and appreciates raw, homegrown talent. Here's to an eventful 2011. Cheers!
