Update on Kenny Chesney 3D Concert DVD

posted by Josh

We’ve received an update from Kenny and his people with regards to our post yesterday on a possible 3D concert DVD shot at the Philadelphia show a couple weeks back. Nothing is currently in the works. We’re told that the filming is routine and has happened every year since Kenny began headlining. It may evolve into a DVD like some past shows and tours have, but nothing is planned right now.

“These are the moments you’re often so busy living, they blur,” Chesney says. “I’ve been shooting everything since I started headlining shows – and to me, you never know what you’re gonna do with it, how you might string it together.”

“A lot of the fans have been part of our videos, the ‘Roadcase’ DVDs we’ve done… our year end video, which is just for all of us out here on the road and when we decided to do something a little different, because we’ve never shot in 3-D before. I wanted to make sure we’d be able to use it. Could it be a movie? A DVD? Sure. It was a magic night. You never know. But you can’t go find all those people to get their permission after the fact, so we decided to be safe… whatever it was.”

Past tours like the No Shoes and Tiki Bars & A Whole Lotta Love tours did become Roadcase DVD’s, which documented the life of the tour. Much of the footage shown on the big screens at the shows and in some music videos are taken from the routine filming over the years.

“It’s pretty magical a lot of what happens. Rather than talk about it, we capture it. I’m just surprised to see so much interest and Internet interest in something that – other than the medium – is pretty typical of
what we’ve been doing out here for years.”
