“Join the Flumeride” to be released on DVD
Written by anderscelin on April 16, 2004 to Video.
HALMSTAD - 
The Roxette and Gyllene Tider spoof documentary from 1998 about Swedish bands “Gula Tidningen” and “Pincette” will be released on DVD this summer. Producers Roger Gunnarsson, Anders Celin and Tobias Pettersson have just finished filming extra material to be included on the DVD. Gula Tidningen is Pierre Gaffel, vocals; Lars LP Pettersson, guitar; Mycket Syd, drums; Anders Hermelin, bass guitar; and Pommes Frittesson, keyboards. Pincette consists of Pierre Gaffel and Marit Fredmansson.
The thought is that the DVD will be shown at the Gyllene Tider exhibit this summer. If everything goes as planned, it will include the film, a behind-the-scenes documentary and a newly recorded follow-up about what has happened since “Flumeride” was originally recorded. Included in this extra footage is a video for Pierre Gaffel’s (Per Gessle’s alter ego) hit single “Detta gäller samtliga (alla och EN var) [“This Goes for Everyone (Each and All)]”, taken from Pierre Gaffel’s solo album “Margarin” [“Margarine”].

Yeah, finally!!!! I’d appreciate subtitles (Swedish with Swedish subtitles or English subtitles - don’t hope for German ones *g*).
That’ll be an expensive summer... ;)

Great to hear this one is being released on DVD ... I saw once a VHS with it recorded from the German TV (or was it Swedish TV?) and had a huge laugh! Congratulations to the director for making this decision!

Köp en Polo, köp en Polo, köp en Polo ääälskling... *singing* (Buy a Polo... ... ...Honey, a huge hit by Gula Tidningen).
It’s a pretty funny movie but I think they were a bit to mean to Marie... It’s obvious that Tobias Persson (not Pettersson) and the other makers of the movie are more fans of G.T. and Per than they are to Marie... :-/

I haven’t seen this production, but I’m eager to watch it! English subtitles would be great... Although I think there won’t be any...
