STUMP THE BAND DVD pre-sale reservations at Amazon.com

Hi Bloggers, Stumpers, et al:

The award-winning slasher STUMP THE BAND (story by Fletcher Rhoden) is available now for pre-sale reservations at Amazon.com:
http://www.amazon.com/Stump-Band/dp/B00166UKUM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1206341339&sr=1-1
Official dvd release is set for May 7, 2008.

In other news, the novella LAST TANGO WITH MARLON should be available in April from Trafford Publishing and will also be featured on Amazon.com, among other outlets. The DVD and webcast will also likely be available in April, albeit later in the month.

And now, answers to recent most-asked questions:
Q: Why the delay in delivering the book/dvd or LAST TANGO WITH MARLON?
A: I made some changes to the book, which delayed production. Our editor for the video, who was going to work on a deferred payment plan, changed his mind -- so we changed our plan. It falls to me to edit it and that will take just a little more time. Since I haven't screened the footage, I can't even guarantee that a dvd can be delivered from the video we have. 2hip4tv.com will still carry the webcast when and if it is ready, however.
Q: Will there be more performances of LAST TANGO WITH MARLON?
A: We're trying to book the show at universities and other unique venues across California -- nothing yet. but stay tuned.
Q: Is there a LAST TANGO WITH MARLON film in the works?
A: Not yet, but several possibilities for that remain. Check out the LAST TANGO WITH MARLON Yahoo! group for dream casting wish-lists. Who would YOU cast?
Q: Are there new songs and/or new recordings on the drawing board?
A: I'll be doing some recording for CharmandHappy.com, but a release is as-yet uncertain -- it'll be April, if at all. And I have a new song I may debut soon live at Mt. Hollywood Congregational Church. The new Christian/pop song, tentatively titled FORMER THINGS will likely be issued as a "video single" on Youtube and will probably appear on a dvd of Mt. Hollywood live performances to be released at the end of the year. I'm accumulating a bunch of new songs, but I don't have any plans to record them any time soon.
Q: Are you animating Robbie Rist's new internet 'toon project?
A: I did some designs and I'm waiting for notes to finalize them.
Q: Are you and Eva James still recording or performing together?
A: Eva and I are still great friends, but we're both busy with our own separate projects at the moment.
Q: What other new projects do you have going on?
A: I'm hoping to do another animated short before summer (this one a pilot for another prospective series) and I'm finishing 2 new screenplays. I may start a third screenplay for Robbie Rist to shoot in New Orleans and a fourth with an eye toward shooting it myself here in LA by the end of the year if possible. I may also shoot LAST TANGO WITH MARLON if nobody else wants to. Any shooting plans are way up in the air, however.

Stay tuned for more, including new archival additions to www.Fletcher Rhoden.com and all kinds of other exciting stuff!
Best,
Fletcher Rhoden
