Labor Day weekend 2023, the club was open — or rather, the Masonic temple was open. That’s when Dayton, Ohio indie rock legends Guided by Voices celebrated their 40th anniversary as a band with a pair of hometown shows supported by some very talented peers and followers (Dinosaur Jr, Built to Spill and Heartless Bastards). GBV classics, both old and new, were captured for posterity as Bob and the fellas start laying the foundation for the next forty years.

Rare, never-before-seen footage from one of Guided By Voices’ earliest shows in 1986, performing songs from Forever Since Breakfast and more.

Live performance recorded at an empty venue in Dayton, OH in summer 2020, in place of a live tour cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Straight from the personal archives of Robert Pollard, The Devil Went Home and Puked is a video collage made up of live footage from nearly every era of GBV and Robert Pollard tours (94- present) and early GBV studio footage.

A definitive record of one of the greatest bands in indie rock, THE ELECTRIFYING CONCLUSION is a chronicle of the last four hours of GUIDED BY VOICES. The film captures GUIDED BY VOICES' final concert at Chicago's Metro on New Year's Eve 2004 - sixty-three songs - completely uncut. Excitement and nostalgia emanating from both the band and audience throughout the memorable evening are powerfully captured here in fantastic performances of both standard GBV tunes and special, seldom-played classics. The DVD includes over 20 minutes of extras including 4 live songs from 1994 and footage of Bob Pollard recording demos for Half Smiles of the Decomposed.

This 65 minute DVD is an unbelievable collection of never-before-seen footage starring rock legends Guided By Voices. This collection includes some never-released videos including "Weed King," Bob and Demos early studio clips, backstage footage, Bob's high school movie "Wild People" featuring "Lucifer's Aching Revolver," plus an early live performance from 1992.
