Dave Dark meets Dave High: Baltimore rock hero loves HIGH THERE!



The most recent sighting of High There was late night at the world-famous BAR bar in Baltimore’s historic pub capital, Fells Point, as rock star Dave Dark showed just how the gonzo film is literally gaining traction by word of mouth!


The bassist for the hard-rocking band Flag of The White Rose (aka “the Lemmy of Fells Point") took time to download High There from Amazon.com on his iPhone and show his affection for the comedy before heading out to another recording session and more gigs in the area.



Flag of The White Rose is one of the most popular bands on the Baltimore music scene.


With great reviews from independent review sites and real word-of-mouth across the country, High There is turning into a cult film, both on VOD and limited edition BRINKvision DVD.
