DVD Update:
So where is the YBF DVD?! Since I debuted the film in 2007 many things tied me up with getting the DVD out, the biggest being the synch license for the songs in the film. I talked with many 60's artists about using their songs and although they loved the film and might even own their songs they don't own the original recordings which cost in the hundreds of thousands. One aspect of the film I wouldn't compromise is that I wanted to use original high quality 6T's recordings. Being a music writer and record collector I was able to get some great contacts of record label owners who recorded in the 6T's and who own the recordings and the songs. The great part is that many of these songs are unreleased and mind-blowing pysch and soul songs direct from reels to reels that haven't been played since the 1960's. I will be closing out a deal soon to get these songs for YBF by the end of November. I really just need to get this out on DVD so I can film my next project. I've also got my website up www.modcineaste.com over the last year which has taken up much of my time getting the site running. I took a gamble to see if I could get certain songs and it didn't work out. Oh well, lesson learned and I will not make that gamble again! Thanks for all your support it is much appreciated!!! Keep the Faith! Leonardo Flores

UPDATE: 04/07
Thanks to the 200 people who came out to the first showing of Young Birds Fly on Saturday.

It was a fantastic screening and good times were had by all.It was a very party like and good vibes atmosphere in the theatre throughout the entire 3 hour performance of YBF...perhaps it was all the alcohol that smuggled into the theatre and after a few hours a few people were a bit drunk! Everyone seemed to get a kick out if the story and characters. Although many people did have their opinions on YBF generally speaking it was well received and I thank you for coming out and watching my film. I plan to cut down the film now meaning that the long print I screened on Saturday will not be screened again.

I had only wish that I could have talked to many of you that came out, but it all went by too fast and by the time I cleared out the theatre and packed my equipment everyone was gone! I would love to hear your opinion of the film so feel free to email me.Thanks to both the Long Beach Vintage Classic Scooter Club and Ricky and his Covina crew to bringing out all the Vintage scooters to the event. Also a special nod to all those who came out from Arizona and San Diego for the screening. Also thanks to John Garside and Julian for manning the projection booth and Riannon Beltran for heading the ticket booth. The above made the afternoon a day many people will never forget.

It's always been just "soul" to me, I'm a huge fan Bob Crewe and Charles Calello and owned nearly all the DynoVoice records (just missing two). My friend came over and was shocked to see that I had a bunch of Invitations and other odd Crewe related Northern Soul records. You can read about in my There's That Beat article that I wrote in isssue 5 but I think it sold out. KTF LF
