[greentom7777]

a great tribute to a legend. one of my favorites also thanks much for posting.

 great to see Tom

[bwendo]

I have to find time to look at this all the way thru. Meanwhile i recommend an independent film on Sundance channel called djangomania. might point out that they showed gypsy people being forced to camp too far away to comfortably attend festival.

[belfastgypsy1]

Incorrect sweetnut..The festival in that doc is the one in Liberichie in Belgium were Django was born.., the atmosphere in Samois is always great -Do your research

[iclercrenaud]

c'est le festival de ma jeunesse, j'adore, j'habitais dans ce merveilleux village sur les bords de seine

[carrieluvv]

the song that begins at around 5:50 is from "chocolat"

im watching " sweet and lowdown" right now and Django is sean penn's idol

[shiftymeister]

it's minor swing

[KeithGlendinning]

I was also there in 2006, there were some great acts, Stochelo and Moses in particular. Didn't think this years festival was as good.

[shambach]

guys...i know the place...it is simply the [heaven] but you couldn't tell maybe because you didnt see the angels but if you listen carfully you can hear them playing

[19JAM68]

will there be a festival this year ? And when ?

[rooduck]

does anyone know when this is on again and where its

held, thanks.

[manouche123]

The festival is every year end of June in for tree days in Samois-sur -Seine in France. Near Fontainebleau. The location is brillant, an island on the river Seine. So much to see and to do. Don't forget to bring over your guitar.

[bigfatelephantdick1]

I have to say thats a great fim, apparantly Birelli was really drunk on stage-thats why he called for Stochelo.Been there the last two years and will be there for many more years to come.One love

[CROUCHSBOTTOM]

Thanks to Pierce and crew for bringing this great documentary to the Djangophiles of the World. One day I hope to go to Samois.

[independentcreators]

I was at the festival in 2005 - it's such a unique ambience, which Pierce captures to perfection. I wanna go back!

[pppbedrzich]

Only one week to start this year issue of festival. Let's meet there!

[reateguitare]

Thanks for posting this!!!

[chaimou1]

Very nice mood and feeling but only snippets of music too bad,still it's the first memento of this festival thanks.

[mcdjango]

Terrific, this brings back memories....I remember being filmed for this with the Landman Brothers. Great stuff, this film really captured the vibe.

[mozkill]

Great video! thanks. Here are my highlights:

2:53 - Eimers Antique guitar

5:43 - Drunk Bireli (seemingly not drunk)

6:44 - bireli puts guitar down and stands up on stage

8:55 - Dave, the guy who stayed at the same B&B as me

14:00 - rock n roll luthier
