Live! at Schemitzun 2005Arvel Bird LIVE at Schemitzun (DVD) (2005)

Schemitzun is the Green Corn Festival in Stonington, CT celebrated by of the Mashantucket/Pequot Tribe. A very large pow wow and rodeo with lots of vendors, but a lack of focus on musical entertainment. We still have hope for this one, though. The Foxwoods MultliMedia Department did a fabulous job of videotaping this with 3 cameras. Post production courtesy of Northstar Studios in Nashville, TN.
