(VIDEO!!) Once the Fiddler Paid: a trailer for the Hot Air Balloon rock opera by the Disco Biscuits

A few years ago this sweet video was being hosted by the fine folks over at BiscoRadio. This past weekend I tried to show it to a friend and I discovered that there were technical difficulties that prevent it from being viewed on their site. I remembered that I had saved it to my work computer, so today I brought it home to share with all y'all.

A brief explanation:

The Hot Air Balloon is a rock opera, written by Disco Biscuits' guitarist Jon Gutwillig, that was debuted on 12/31/98 at the Silk City Diner in Philadelphia, PA.

For the songs, a synopsis of the story, character sketches and a bunch of other cool stuff from the Hot Air Balloon, take a click on the Very Moon.

Some more info on the video you just watched, from the Rumor Page on Phantasy Bisco:

[01.17.05] "Once the Fiddler Paid", a segment of the "Hot Air Balloon", has been produced by Troy Carlton and Michael Kuhn for release on discobiscuits.com or on DVD soon. Scripts for the rest of the songs are in the process of being written in hopes of becoming a feature movie. [CONFIRMED]
