[Five Day Bicycle Race raw: 2 band]

This video contains raw footage shot for "Five Day Bicycle Race," a project comprised of live in-studio commentary and taped edited coverage of the 1976 Democratic National Convention in New York City. Produced by independent videomakers calling themselves The Image Union (including many members of TVTV and Videofreex), it aired on Manhattan Cable for three hours per night for five days during the convention. This video features footage from the DNC in Madison Square Garden. We watch the house band perform for a large portion of the video.

They eventually make their way down to the convention floor. However, they soon return up to the area where the house band resides.

We then watch the band perform a number of patriotic classics. One of the videomakers jokingly sings along with the music. This lasts for a good portion of the tape.
