Richmond, Virginia-based art/comedy/skate collective Day By Day have begun work on a documentary on long-running punk act Avail. In a posting to their myspace, the group explained:
We did a few days with them on their most recent tour and will be heading out with them again in the near future. They have a sweet library footage threw the years. Its gonna start when Avail started and end at present….which will be a ways down the road.I can't tell you how excited we are. These guys have been my favourite band since high school (about 9 years). Plus they're the most humble sincere group of southerners you could meet. It'll be a nice change from what we are use to doing here at dbd…we will be working on our next video as well though.
The group worked with Avail previously, and featured "West Wye" from the band's 2002 full length, Front Porch Stories on a recent DVD titled Teenages from Mars.
They are currently wrapping up work on a second DVD titled Teenagers from Uranus with hopes for a September release.
Avail continues to work on their next full length and recently reissued Dixie, 4AM Friday and Over the James on Jade Tree.
