Happy Holidays, everyone! Just a note to remind you that following last night�s screening in theaters nationwide, CREED LIVE, the first-ever live DVD from the multi-platinum power rockers, is officially being released today. Making the news of this Guinness World Record-breaking, state-of-the-art recording doubly interesting is that while capturing the band�s recent �Full Circle� reunion tour, this �excellent� (BlogCritics) package now is vying for holiday season concert DVD attention with ALTER BRIDGE: LIVE FROM AMSTERDAM, the new debut DVD from the band that rose from the ashes of Creed following their breakup (and still shares three of its members), fronted by in-demand vocalist Myles Kennedy (who�ll be appearing on Slash�s new solo album). LIVE FROM AMSTERDAM vaulted to No. 1 on Amazon upon arrival, and is getting great reviews, including four stars from Guitar Edge, praising the band for putting on �the show of their lives.� How�s that for a great gift package? These DVDs are the first two releases from DC3 Music Group, LLC, the new multi-media company specializing in exclusive live concerts and behind-the-scenes content from multi-platinum artists to be distributed through multiple distribution channels, including the latest mobile and digital technology through its new website [http://www.Rockpit.com]
