I know this isn't going to sit well with many, but I wouldn't produce something full of foul language. Yeah, I've been known to have to go wash my mouth out with soap, but I ain't running around trying to start a new TV show with that language, either.

The most popular show on TV right now has NO cuss words or bleeps in it.

But as a documentary you have to show how it really is out there, and to not show how the people involved in comp bbq really are would be a disservice to the people who it is about and to those who don't know what it's about and are learning about it for the first time.

Also a network TV show can't have foul language or cuss words, because than sponsors wouldn't pay for ads and the network would not make any money. But network TV shows have plenty of sex and violence. In the last 5 to years cable TV shows have become extremely popular, starting with the Sopranos and then Mad Men and others like Dexter and Justified. All of those shows post great numbers and they are full of cuss words and nudity.

Just saying is all.
 
Glad everyone is chiming in on the thread. First time I had to check the box for resurrecting an old thread. Thought I might have to deal with the message board police. :mod:

The trailer does get the juices flowing. Ready for that first comp this year!
 
Looking for music....Check out Roger Clyne and The Peacemakers - "Heaven on a Paper Plate"

A different genre than you have going now. But, they are an independent label and genuine good guys. I like some of their other stuff better but, this song definitely makes me think of BBQ.

Can't wait to see the finished product.
 
That was awesome! I can't wait until it comes out.

Even more important, I can't wait until competition season starts back up!
 
Looks awesome. Great music. Some of those turn in boxes remind me how much more I need to practice! Looking forward to the release.
 
Great job, you should submit it for the Hot Springs Documentary Film Festival in Hot Springs, one of the longest running documentary film festivals in the nation...
 
Looks good! Hopefully we get a blu-ray release!
 
The whole trailer offended me from frame one. We bbq peeps are normal.

I consider myself a pretty normal guy with interests balanced in moderation. I am interested in many things besides just bbq.

Unlike the guys on here I keep my ego in check and I definitely would not consider myself self centered.

Never once spending too much time on anything that could be considered... an obsession.

Much appreciated everybody. I am very glad that you guys are liking what we are making here. Truly. This doc is for us competitors. It shows our world, has unbelievable insight from all levels of competitors, and has a great soundtrack. Our goal with this is to give the public a glimpse into the REAL world of competition bbq, what its like to compete, how much time/energy/money it takes, and best of all, the camaraderie. Plus, how some past competitors have turned bbq into a business.

We are still in the editing phase (have over 15 hours of unbelievable footage) but I am always accepting original music and sponsorship. just contact me through our website.

Thank you all very much for your support. I hope we do you all proud and once its done I can finally get back to competing. Cheers everybody. I'll keep you all posted.

In smoke we trust.
