Word! Good stuff indeed. 
I wish I had the luxury to donate for the 'executive producer' level, but they'll still get some pennies out of my grubby mitts.

I'm surprised they didn't offer a Melvins Pizza Party pledge:

The batting cages pledge is cool though.

If this doc doesn't include some of the Vinney HFSPR!! interview footage then it's incomplete

I have the VHS tape still. I will give it up to some sort of video wizard for these purposes.
I haven't let it out of my clutches (or watched it) for about a decade, but I'd do it for this.

if someone wants to trickle this news to the appropriate endpoints i'd happily comply. HAPPILY. 
(also what's "HFSPR"? my google is broken)

Can you please elaborate on this wonderful video?

A few years back there was a 'viral video' (on YouTube) of a music clip from an Olsen Twins video, that intentionally had the pitch/tempo slowed down. Giving it a 'other worldly' vibe without the use of actual drugs. Ha!  Around that time the Melvins were touring (Melvins+BigBiz lineup) and incorporated it into their set.
 
Here's the viral clip:


If you're high as fuck and watching this at 2am, it will make sense - I guess.

End-joy

I am familiar with the Olsen clip - but I couldn't believe that the melvins "covered" it live. that's fucking awesome. 
i have a feeling this was bigbiz's influence. those kids and their internets.

Vinny, it's not hard to encode and upload your video to YouTube.  I'm a total moron and even I was able to figure it out.  Then I returned the hardware to Fry's and got my money back.

Unfortunately, unlike Youtube, the video only exists in dreams.

"the hardware"
you present a good point - buy the necessary hardware and return it afterwards. I always forget that this version of "renting" is possible, and the missing piece for me is the VHS -> DVD transfer equipment.
