To everyone who is interested.

The Randy Rhoads Documentary had provided me with a respark of a project I had wrote down since first starting UltimateRhoads, this idea?

A documentary of Randy Rhoads, but not the Rockstar image or the Human side to be shown, but his influential side, and what Randy meant to us?

So, how am I going to achieve this, simple, I need YOU to help me. Whether you are a fan or known Randy professionally or personally, I'd like your help.

I would like everyone who has a webcam or a handycam, to film themselves explaining how Randy inspired you, it doesn't matter if you can't play guitar, so long as he had an inspiration in your life, you're fit for this documentary and when you are done, send the footage to me.

I will post questions I would like you to answer, once this has drummed up interest.

Excellent idea Simon. I swear to all that is holy that I was going to post something of this caliber after I was done going through the posts. I was thinking that since there is such a hoopla over this documentary and people keep saying (well Oth and a couple of others anyway) GO MAKE YOUR OWN that we should. Everyone that has a camera (web or video) could submit about a 3 minute piece and when we get enough for about an hour then edit it all together with some RR playing softly in the background. It obviously won't be super high quality but, it will be priceless none the less. I think we should ask Romeo if he would like in on this project as he's the one that catches the most shit over the doc and he seems to have good quality cameras and I'm sure he has some editing abilities. Just my thoughts but, I'm in for it. Let me know what you think.

That's a great idea, I wish I'd thought of it myself! haha! It will be the perfect way to show Oth & Peter that you don't have to have 3 years and a million dollar budget to make something people will want to watch. Some classic horror movies were put together for under 10,000 but yet they've become legendary and have cult followings. and alot of movies that have cost millions have been flops. Money can't buy talent. A talented and smart person with very little budget and time can make something good. I'd love to be involved. I'm all for it.

Fantastic,

I was think I would do the editing, and put it all together for everyone, but I'm happy to have a clip from RomeoRose about how Randy inspired him,
You see I'm a film/tv student and I thought this would be a great opportunity for us Randy Rhoads fans to make our own Documentary.

Its a great idea that it should be a 3 minute piece,

To send me the videos, go to www.sendspace.com by uploading and PMing me the links.

The Blair Witch Project for instance.
