Filmed over seven years (1996-2002) and culled from over 1500 hours of footage by rising director Ondi Timoner, DIG! plunges into the underbelly of rock ?n? roll unearthing an amazing true tale of success, self destruction, friendship, and the ultimate rivalry between two up-and-coming bands; Brian Jonestown Massacre led by the tormented, self-destructive genius of Anton Newcombe, and the Dandy Warhols led by a more polished, but admittedly less visionary Courtney Taylor. DIG! is the story of their loves and obsessions, gigs and recordings, arrests and death threats, uppers and downers, and the delicate balance between art and commerce. As the idealism and destructive tendencies of Jonestown lead to their repeated undoing, the more ?well-adjusted? Warhols navigate the corporate sea, trying to maintain their creative edge while starring in mega-budget music videos and playing huge arenas.

DIG! is due out on DVD April 12th. The 2-disc special edition includes over 2 hours of DVD extra footage!
