Today's the day. What day? The day DMB hits the BIG screen! Starting today, December 11th, until next Thursday the 17th, is the 3D Theatrical Release of "
Larger than Life... In 3D: Dave Matthews Band, Ben Harper & Relentless7 and Gogol Bordello". Once again in case you missed our past news articles, and you weren't one of the lucky winners we gave advanced screening tickets to, then this is your opportunity to check it out. The film focuses on DMB’s performance at the Austin City Limits Festival this year, and was filmed in 3D. FYI, this release won’t be extended and the film will never be released on DVD or TV so catching it in the theater is the only chance you'll have to see it. It's a unique opportunity to see DMB in the theaters and at the same time feed that DMB-fix. We were lucky enough to attend the advanced screening and can say it's worth going to the film just for the amazing audio. So for those of you that stared at the Sun all week and are chasing black dots, you'll still love it. It's meant to be a concert. Dancing, singing, cheering are encouraged.
To celebrate the release we've scored some limited edition prizes! We have a total of 30 different prizes we are excited to give away. So what are they? Well first 10 grand prizes of 2 Free Tickets to the playing of the film! We will only raffle these of over the weekend because we have to ship them out to the winners right away. It's a great prize for that second viewing, ha. Then, open to enter all week long we also have 20 grand-er prizes, that include "Larger Than Life in 3D" backstage “tour pass”, a limited edition "tour" poster (designed by the same people who design graphics for DMB), and a limited edition t-shirt (size not guaranteed). (See twitter post from a few days ago for larger prize picture.) So head over to the
Antsmarching.org & Dave Matthews Band 3D Movie Contest Page to enter! If you want more info and to find theaters that are playing the film, check out the trailer and info on the

It's set to hit the big screen Dec. 11th – 17th.
