Elephant 6 Documentary Trailer

Although this trailer may be old, it is not one that should go unseen. There have been tons of rumors about a possible Elephant 6 documentary, but nothing has amounted yet aside from this trailer made almost a year ago. The video includes some old video footage and interviews, but unfortunately no Kevin Barnes. Let’s hope some publicity will make whoever posted it give some more!
